    Nice little rig. I have a 5th gen I'm doing things to. I love them. However, you're 100% correct. Those v6 rav4s are underrated. For those who know what they are, call them a unicorn for a reason. I'd grab one up but I need a truck. Might get another tacoma because I miss mine. Have the tacoma and 5th gen rav. Nice little build. I like it.

    These guys are to talk with.
    These are my dream off-road suspension upgrade for my 2015 lifted Scion xB.
    I only did front 3rd/4th gen RAV4 suspension 2” and rear 2.5” spacers. That’s all I did.
    Had it for almost 3 years with no issues.
    But. Now I want full suspension upgrade for my lifted xB.
    And with bilstein b6 and 10% of front and rear loaded springs and Tacoma with rear shocks with shock extenders. It will ride much firmer but I prefer that to keep the vehicle planted. And will have sale way better. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥
    The 2008-2015 Scion xB has the same the new mc platform as the 2006-2018 Toyota RAV4. So that’s why I’m running a RAV4 suspension.

    Nice work man! Looks fantastic. I have a 2018 Nissan Rogue SL AWD that I put one inch wheel spacers on and upgraded the tires to a 235/60/18 Toyo open country AT3 super aggressive all terrain and it turned out to look really good. Wished now after seeing your awesome build that I would have lifted my 4wd Rogue and went up to a 245 or maybe even a 255. Well done on your Rav man!

    Dope build brother! Would you recommend this setup on the 4 cylinder or only the V6 version? I have a 4 cylinder RAV4, looking to do something very similar. I'd imagine it would probably drop the gas milage by a considerable amount. Maybe if I go with lighter wheel setup? Thanks!

    • @CoolGuyClub
      @CoolGuyClub  24 дня назад

      I’ll tell you this much, I had a 4th gen RAV 4 cylinder and it was scary slow (due to the CVT) and upgrading wheels and tires to a bigger size would have been the worst thing possible. I will say you won’t find a lighter and more well suited tire than the Nomad Grappler but you might be able to find a lighter wheel but not by much. The Reika’s are flow formed to help with strength and weight. If you’re willing to trade off some acceleration, and some MPGS you will ABSOLUTELY love a lifted RAV on Nomad Grapplers.

    Just bought this exact same car, color and all. Absolutely love it so far! I can’t believe more people don’t snag these up. These videos are sick 🤝🏻
    Does yours have the notorious transfer case whine?

    • @CoolGuyClub
      @CoolGuyClub  11 месяцев назад +1

      Yup the whine is there. I don’t mind it too much as long as it doesn’t develop into something critical. We LOVE ours so much

    I live in Vietnam now and have a 2006 Rav4 3.5 V6.
    I just read there is a version of this car that comes with 225/70 R16. I read around forums like Rav4World and the guys over there fit 235/70r17 and even 245/70r17 tires with only removing the fender for the latter size (30.5 inches)
    I was wondering how to make the ride smoother since we have terrible roads at some parts and I really want to soften the ride (and the noise). My struts were replaced when I bought the car a year ago and I run my tires at 2.3 BAR only. I wish to keep this little rocket but need a smoother ride for the family.
    Have a great day!

      Easiest way to make the ride a little smoother is to get any plus 0 or plus 1 tire size like you've listed above and air down when you're offroading. I don't recommend constantly running the tires aired down on the highway or for daily use because the air is what you need to carry the load and weight of the car but for slower gravel / dirt road driving airing down is the best / easiest solution.

    3rd gen Rav4 and a red AE86 in the Garage? Are you my clone? LOL

    @toyotabrony 8 месяцев назад

    The 3rd/4the gen RAV4 doesn’t have a cvt dude.
    The 2.5L 2AR still gets from bullet proof 6 speed to 8 speed real gears automatic transmission.
    The one with cut they have on rav4 hybrid.
    So RAV4 has 6 speed and modern 8 speed at.
    Just FYI.

    • @CoolGuyClub
      @CoolGuyClub  8 месяцев назад +1

      Ah yes 2019 has a cvt but no matter what the year, that car is absolutely dog shit. I had one for three years. No power. No torque and constantly disappointing off-road and on road.

      @@CoolGuyClubya it doesn’t matter what year, but it matters what drivetrain you have.
      Also do u know what’s the length for the rear spring of the RAV4 by any chance? For 3rd/4th gen RAV4.

      Awd with a center locking diff

    I have a 2012 V6 Limited. You got a couple things wrong. Third Gen only had 7.5" of ground clearance. Not all sport models had no spare tire, only those with the Sport Appearance Package. The "center locking diff" isn't. It forces the hydraulic coupler to engage, but only up to 25 MPH. Even then, the AWD system can overheat and shut down, leaving you in 2WD temporarily. In other words, it's a very weak AWD system. Still love mine, but it's NOT great off road. I have a Wrangler Rubicon for that.

    • @CoolGuyClub
      @CoolGuyClub  11 месяцев назад +1

      Your wrangler rubicon is the ultimate off-roader. For fire roads leading to campsites these little ravs are perfect. And you’re right about the ground clearance I goofed in my research
