    It's not the 4 piston calipers on the 4Runner limiting the braking system. Although they utilize rather small caliper pistons. It is the rotor. The rotor is the weak point of the 4Runners braking system. Of course, swapping out to a big brake kit, considering your heavy load, is a home run. Nice rig.

    What a wonderful couple! Gave me many ideas on my 5th Gen build! What a well thought out setup. It seems to me builds are constantly evolving based upon need. Question: If I was running 33” tires with an Alu Cab RTT and awning up top, fridge, etc, would 4:46 gears be justified. I am a weekenderlander and not a full timer. Thanks!

    • @jackwalsh1468

      In South Dakota you only have to be there for 24 hours. In turn, you can register your vehicle and procure a Driver's license in one stop.
      Also, they're are several mail forwarding services available. That you can use as a home address.
      A very friendly state for the traveler. Cheers, Mate.

      They don't actually live in S.D. They moved out of California and found that you don't have to live in S.D. to get license plates there. It saves them paying those expensive California vehicle registration fees.

    This may be a silly question, but what is done outside of suspension to be able to support all that weight added on the 4runner?

    • @OverlandBound
      @OverlandBound  Год назад +1

      Brakes. Need better stop boots.

      @@OverlandBound That makes sense, thank you. Been planning my own 4runner build and keep wondering how all the weight is managed on some of these crazy rigs.
