    Yea a lot of this stuff can be made for way cheaper. And there’s are defiantly over built for the factory rails. But they beat the factory cross bars with plastic ends that only have 3/4” of clearance on the roof

    since I got it used I had to figure it out for myself, even then it was really easy
    I like that I can just carriage bolt stuff to it and I don’t need special (expensive) accessory mounts

    Got it installed yesterday. Took some experimenting to get things right and I had to calibrate it twice, but took it for a short drive and it works well. Senses the hills up and downs and when I am on uneven terrain. Overall not bad for $50. Had to split my charger on the dash to share with my tire pressure reader. It does come with a wire for doing a share a fuse but not sure we're to feed the wire through the back of the dash. Might looking into it but it works for now. 20210531_161004.jpg 20210531_161009.jpg

    Getting my Relation Race wheels in. Been waiting 3 months and they are almost here. Super excited. Then I am getting the Nitto Trail Grapplers M/T 285/75/17 put on Saturday afternoon.

    If anyone in N.C. is interested in some 265/70/17 Toyo AT3 with stock wheels feel free to PM me. Otherwise they are going up on Facebook marketplace. :)

    Ugh. That's not good at all. I've got Durobumps. Have you considered making a warranty claim?

    nice! I put those on my 2021, was a little different from the rest of the models and needed to do some changes that weren’t explained anywhere. Nevertheless they work good now after I got them working properly. Just their customer service was bad, apparently specialists can’t speak to you on the phone you gotta email back and fourth. Had to figure it out myself. But man do they look nice!

    2013 Trail
    Not today, but over the past few weeks... I use my 2013 Trail for camping, fishing and Search and Rescue work. I usually travel solo and sleep in my 4Runner. I eventually decided to make it a more comfortable travel "mini camper". I also wanted to keep things (mostly) reversible.

    I added the Dometic fridge on a "poor man's storage box" (theshelvingstore.com 18"x24" custom rack). I have the OEM sliding tray and added some tie downs, so the fridge and stand slide out nicely. Works great for storing my stove and 100W Rockpals folding solar panel. I added a Victron mppt solar controller to charge either my 100Ah AGM battery strapped down behind the driver's seat or my AGM starter battery via my 12V always-on panel in back (USB-C PD, USB-A, 2-pin Engel/ARB/Dometic fridge socket, 12v socket, Anderson Powerpoles). I use powerpoles for much of my outdoor electronics and tools.

    It's not super fancy, but works really well. All of my gear is easily accessible, and I sleep great with the rear seat bottoms removed and a rubbermaid 8gal box behind the passenger seat to extend the platform (MondoKing 77"x25" pad). I also added a Moonshade awning.


    Most of the ideas and details came from many hours on 4runners.com :)

    I'm probably outside the warranty time 2+ years. Also I already ordered the Timbrens for the front.

    Still, a disappointing performance by DB. I've had Timbrens on previous rigs and they have been bulletproof.

    Yeah I felt the same. The rears were Duro Bumps before they started to break apart on the ends. That's when I switched to the Timbrens.

    What offset did you get? I was thinking replacing the TRD Pro wheels with different ones to give it a beefier look instead of using spacers.
