Converting A Toyota 4Runner Into An Overlanding Rig – Part 1 – Carcass S3, E12

1. Great video, i wish we had the bigger Toyotas in Australia we end up with the crappy looking ones 🤣

2. Must have missed it. What size are the tires?

3. VERY DIRTY… CLEAN 1ST B4 UPGRADED

4. Nicee FPV Drone shots in there. 🧐👍🍻 that would be fun to chase yall around with my freestyle drones.

5. Caliper bolts are torqued to 91 ft/lbs….

6. I need to take mine to you guys! I have the same exact 4Runner.

7. Everything is wrong with subarus😂😂

8. Loving the drone shots.

9. A word of advice to the producers. Any one with an IQ above room temperature can replace the front disks and pads on a 4Runner, The expertise is in the rear where releasing the star wheel adjuster a to be able to get the rotor off and then re-installing it and then adjusting it CORRECTLY (so the parking brake actually works again) would make for more interesting viewing and your viewers might appreciate solid tech help like that. Basic R&R does not make great viewing

10. What happen to this guys hair????

11. You guys next project needs to be a mid-late 70's (73-77) Muscle car. These cars are getting popular, atleast here in the Southwest and West, as a muscle car build because all the "desireable" cars have either already been built or are so expensive that the average guy can't afford them. You can pick up a mid-late for under $3,000 running and driving. You guys should show your viewers how cool these cars can be with little money invested. Earlier this year I picked up a 73 Buick Regal for $1200 and after putting new tires on it it passed inspection and is now my daily driver. Since I've had it I've rebuilt and repainted the engine and transmission, cleaned up and painted the engine bay and trunk and cleaned up and painted the frame and replaced all suspension bearing and bushings and still haven't spent 5k on it.

12. Awesome 4RUNNER 👍👍🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸 the Vermonter

13. It my dream project, overland project!!

14. Nice build so far! That “little” rubbing that you guys aren’t going to do anything about…for now, is going to be BIG rubbing once you’re aired down and on the trails. I promise. Looking forward for the next part of your series!

15. Supposed to be a good show and have their mechanics spreading misinformation. A lift does not matter with clearing tires on an IFS vehicle.

16. Add a TRD/Magnuson TVS Supercharger.

17. Question, since you are making custom bumpers. Wouldn’t it have given more room (and allowed better views) to access the suspension by removing the bumpers prior to Icon install?

18. Okay guys…time to do an Xterra overlander or just a good mod for Xterra owners….and remember there's always the AMC Eagle Wagon rock crawler build! DO IT!!! I wont stop until you DO IT!

19. twenty one and a half

    you peeps are going to town apparently

20. You guys are really getting more into import vehicles over time. It's fine, just make sure that you continue to prioritize American made vehicles.

21. Little bit higher if it were me

22. They have worked on everything but a minivan

23. Pull that stupid mudflap right off

24. If you think about it, it's pretty cool that you can get some altitude to make it more capable without destroying the ride now a days. The days of having a purpose built rig is just about done for. The price of owning multiple vehicles for different purposes is stupidly high. Most people cannot afford that anymore. The quality has really come a long way. Now if I could just find a simple leveling/lift kit for my Trailblazer I'd be a happy camper. An inch or 2 would be perfect. I've bottomed it out a couple of times and never even taken it "Off roading". Just snow. What we call "Budda Trucks" are everywhere around here. 6+"s of lift with $1000+ wheels and tires for the looks alone. Impractical as Dailies that never see a dirt road, much less a trail.

25. Do an episode with the engine power guys where they supercharge a v8 4runner, while you build it out. DOOO IT

26. ⭐️🫶💯

27. Such clean hands lol

28. Hell yes …another youtube show talking for half the time. Not to mention the ads.

29. Money upgrades anything and anyone. 🤭in another score I'd rather get a good condition 2005 or so Ford Expedition and turned into a crawler.

30. I think they meant to say car camping
    🚘 ⛺️

31. Do nothing about the mud flap rubbing? Dang. I hope it doesn't rip the fender flare off or something.

32. Finally a build I care about.

33. Matco toote have goten so price sence i work at ford.!!!!

34. Do not have to torque down any brake parts fastners,a couple ugga duggas with an impact is good enough.The front brake set up in the front is a pain in the ass,GM used it as well.One is the pins freeze up.The TPMS,bypass it since the sensors are government spy devices as well and are not accurate

35. I’m a big fan of the 4-Runner and I must say I enjoyed this episode. Hoping to have one some day.

36. What brake pads and rotors were used?

37. I’ve often wondered how these were off-road. They are good looking trucks, but never seen them in the woods👍🏻

38. On your videos, it would be nice if you included price of the parts. Or an overall cost for each segment, e.g., suspension, brakes, accessories.

39. Really enjoyed the episode. Like the different style camera work by the guys, in the beginning, describing parts and tire rub. Keep up the awesome content! Loyal fan

40. So you're going to tastefully lift the truck, add bigger tires and wheels, and you're not going to do anything to improve engine power or performance? These 4Runners have a rather outdated 5-speed auto and you're not going to do anything with gearing to compensate for the bigger wheels and tires when you're not running in the low-range off-road? So you're going to make the truck worse for the 80-90% of the time you'll be driving it on the road. Did I get that right? Also, you'll be taking the truck off-road, presumably over worse terrain than you would if the vehicle was stock. Why not upgrade the stock, plastic skid plate to something aluminum or steel? Seems like a lot of missed opportunities here.

41. That 4Runner will end up looking like most of the mall crawlers here in Los Angeles.
