Im super glad u made this video it answered all mt questions regarding stuffing big ol' ties on a Tacoma, but is definitely be interested in a more in depth video in case there was something I missed. Cheers bud, keep up the good work :)

I have a 2018 Taco with Fox DSC. Change your front coils to 650 lb/in (stock for Fox is 600 lb/in). It helped keep my front tires from rubbing at full lock (truck didn't have as much body roll). You need stiffer springs for Fat Tacos. Really enjoy your videography and Tacoma shots. Love the wrap. Keep up the good work!

great shots of tires turned and how they clear, options for trimming/relocation, really nice work here, thank you!

I'm going through the same issue running 35's on my Tacoma with a 3" Kings lift. I made a video telling about it as well. I will be doing a relocation bracket soon. Great video and info 👍. Keep it up

Awesome video! thank you for all you do! Very inspirational. my next vehicle might be a Tacoma definitely could be doing some off-roading and camping so every bit helps 👍

Nice videos. I'm slowly setting up my truck for truck camping / off road / BOV. Daily driver though. 13 Chevy 2500hd 4x4. Tow alot so I'm not going real high. Learning alot through your channel. Keep up the good work.

awesome video, Mike - can't wait to see the video on the iKamper prototype! Always psyched to see your content, look forward to your next meet-up in CO.

Excellent video.. tyvm! I have a set of SCS Ray10s waiting to go on my taco.. just not committed to 33 or 35 yet. I didn't think I would have to re-gear for 33s, but if I do, I might as well just go all in for 35s. Looking forward to your video about the new wrap!

One of the nicest Tacomas our there! Always enjoy your content. I have 5.29s going in my rig as well. I went with Yukons just for ease of availability up were I live. After we slap those in I am ready for 35s when ever, I want to run my 33s till they are wore out first and then decide.

Good call!

Dig all the videos man. Would love to see a deeper dive video on the 35s, especially how they differ from your previous set up. I would also love to see a couple videos on the Forster, such as.. how you out fit it with gear (being not your main ride), and any other great info you can throw our way! Keep it up brother, can’t tell you how much better I feel in my mind set from dudes like you and Mike from field craft. P.s. would love to see y’all do more work together. Thanks for the hard work

Also really like to have ideas of cost. Most people have connections but really helps to know general costs of components (retail is fine) so people have an idea. I would agree gearing is essential with this setup but most have no idea how expensive it can be and the vid is setup to explain what it takes to run 35”s the correct way. No need to listen to the “all you need is to be rich” comments, since there are other options but really like to know ballpark to do thing right. Thanks again enjoy the delivery/method of your video

Super high quality camera work! Looks awesome my man

Thanks Mike, love the Taco videos. Keep them coming!

Absolutely would love more details really want that wrap 🤤

Wow this is the absolute best video for how to fit 35s thanks.

Love your channel dude. Can't wait to get a set up like yours! Love outdoors, hardcore 4x4ing and camping!

Love all your reviews. Keep them coming, also can you show what you do to keep your gear secure and your security ie locking mechanisms for you trax and things on bed rails. Thanks brother

Mike, that was a very helpful video. Well done, and thank you!

Love your setup man. Hope to get my tundra looking half thar nice.

first time look at, wrap absolutely great

Convinced that I should just save for another year, get rid of my camburg uca, king 2.5's bfg 33's and just do a SAS on my 16 TRD OR 4X4 LB That's the only way I'm going to get the true performance I'm looking for out of my Tacoma Appreciate the videos as well as your input!

Always good information to be found on this channel...

Yes we want detailed longer version of it :)

I'm running the same tires. About 30,000mi of mixed use and still look almost brand new.

All my questions have been answered!!!! Thank you!!!!

How far do you have to commute? I'm in conifer and have about an hour commute to my job. Totally worth it to live in the Colorado mountains! But yeah I get about 3 trips to and from work in my 4runner before I need to fill up again.

Great Video. Sorry if I missed it, did you recalibrate your speedo? Wondering how accurate your miles per gallon is.

All your comments? Well then thanks for putting out useful stuff! Im actually here for my fj

I have a 2006 Taco, ext.cab,TRD,4x4.. I just purchased a 4" RC suspension lift kit, 3" body lift, DV8 front bumper with winch mount, rear Fab Four Bumper with spare tire mount, 10,000lb. Warn Evo, 35-12.5-17 BFGoodrich K02's, on 17" Mickey Thompson Classic rims. I have my front room full of all this stuff, just waiting for the install to begin.

Awesome vid, badass truck!

Thanks for the great and informative video. Would love to know more about the fitment issues you have had. Under flex and at angle do you rub to the point of limiting capability?

I like the high level overview, it helps to see how it all fits together...a deeper dive into the mods or how you get electronics into your rig might be fun too...i love this stuff...thanks M.

5.29s are definitely the way to go on 3rd gen. I have 33s and 5.29 seem perfect. I can finally use 6th gear and stay at around 2400 rpm going 70. I used to be at 3400 rpm at 70 if there was a slight incline because the truck would shift down from 5th to 4th. 6th used to only happen going downhill.

I would like the more detailed version also! Thanks!

Nice build, you easily have around 15K in upgrades and Mods! Hope I can start building mine! Looking into a bumper for my next mod

Those Wheels are 9” wide -12 offset 4.53 backspace if anyone is wondering. They will not clear some aftermarket UCA with 35” tires (JBA for example). A spacer would be required.

Nice one. Good looking rig.

Hey man! Been watching your videos for a while and would love to see a more in depth review of your truck - it’s completely different now than your original walk around, which was great! If you see this comment, I’m curious to know how the rest of the stock components are doing on the truck after driving it lifted for a little while now? Such as the differential, cv’s, bearings, any odds and ends leaking or wearing noticeably quicker etc.? Thanks for the great content and cool vids.

6 months ago we wanted more details, we still want all the juicy details man! :)

Nice video. Thanks fort the info!!

How are your brakes? Maybe you’ve already said and I missed it. Didn’t know if you upgraded those too with more mass especially up and down in the mountains.

thanks for sharing Mike!

great video. Making me say Hmmmmmm about a lift kit on my 2018 Titan. Is it worth it??

Enjoyed your video, thanks!

Good video. Just enough enough info for someone to have an idea of what it takes to go with 33"-35" tires, the right way. I have a 2010 with 2.5"-3" of lift. I'm running 33" x 11.5" M/T Baja MTZs on 16 x 8 M/T Classic III w/ 4.5" BS & 1.25" spacers. I needed the spacers to not rub the UCA and the frame on the front. I removed half of the body mount behind the tire to not rub there. Also had to beat the shit out the back side of the wheel well to get clearance. The only time I rub is at full turn and full tuck and that rubs the back side of the wheel well. The rest of the set-up is OME Heavy Duty Coils/Shocks, Light Racing UCA's, OME Dakar Leafs, Bilstein 5100s. I built my own Front and Rear bumpers and they're heavy. I'm currently in the process of building an Overland Trailer and also going to be making my version of the Prinsu roof rack next. Instead of the tent rack on the back I'd prefer to have it on a trailer so I can set up camp and leave it there while I go explore. I carry kayaks on a rack on the truck.

@@jimfox3336 I love it. It's a little stiff but that how I needed it with all the equipment I have. IMO it's the best set-up you can put on a Tacoma that doesn't completely break the bank. In the future I really want to 4 Link the rear, and go with solid axle front with some 37-39" tires.

Thanks for the video. Reminded me why I stay with stock tires and suspension...the 15 mpg is a killer. All stock I average 20 mpg, and I like it as my daily driver.

Can you do a video how to seal the tacoma truck bed to prevent water and FSR dust from getting inside?

Hey Mike I’ve been looking and haven’t seen anything as of yet on the smaller ikamper. Can you give any insight on the release date.

Man those 35 inch falken wildpeaks look amazing on mike’s tacoma

I like the wrap lm intrested in doing this to my car.😎👍

Cost for the regearing? I saw your truck at Overland Expo West. Looks great!

Yes more details!

Dude , i love your truck and I really like the thoughtfulness put in to it all around. I live in Florida......Not a hill as far as i can see. I have sand...deep sand and dunes. We have trails but not ROCK trails ya know..I have a 2017 trd offroad with a little 2'' lift. How far could i follow you in this video, hahaha. Probably not too far , huh.. Are there other ways around some of the obstacles you guys were going thru? I have some friends in Colorado and would love to go out there with my truck. Its so funny...all we ever say is "if i only had another $5000 i could do this !!" Even if I cant get out there, im having fun watching ya'll do it, thanks for that.

Depends on the trail, but a lot of them have bypasses you can take to make it much easier. This trail we hit the hardest parts, but a less capable vehicle still could have gone everywhere we did by skipping them.

Im a jeep guy so i dont know if you have solid axles and if you do truss and sleeve them for extra support. I snapped mine when i went to 37s. Also adding a washer on steer stops helps on rubbing on full turn. And a longer bump stops when coils are fully compressed. Nice rig by the way and totally miss colorado if im lucky enough with divorce id visit salida for fishing and white water.

Thanks for all your videos I do find them informed, so with that being said while I like my lift stage 3 icon ,is there any way to get a little more lift out of it ,I've gone up a on the front threads on my coil overs 1.5 showing ,can I go more without hurting anything ?

I love that front bumper

Curious as to if you’ve talked about your aftermarket tail lights. Would like to get mine black like that

What advice for a noob wanting to get into what you do can you give me . Buying vehicle and so on ? Thank you for what you do takes out the guess work and helps a lot with enjoying like outdoors .

Great taco Mike , thank you very much !

I'm a ram owner. And also love yota

Hey man. Question for you. I have a 16 Off road as well with the same headlights. When you have your turn signal on, and you are in the turn, do the signals immediately go off when you are slightly coming out of it. Mine do that, and I’ve wanted to decrease the sensitivity. What would be involved about doing that?

So i have a stock OF.... suspension travel is the same, can I go 35 before my lift? Or am I simplifying this.

What if I lift my Tacoma 6inches, can I run 35's with maybe a slight rub at full turn? or will I need to still do the body mount chopped back?

How do you take care of the odometer and speedometer issue when getting bigger tires?? That’s really my biggest concern with dealing with the dealer servicing and all that how do you keep the odometer correct??

Saw video the other day guy had to use sledge hammer pounding on the weld spots to get 35s to fit so wouldnt rub what people will do to get wheels to fit amazing..

How much does it cost to your truck re-geared also I think I might have seen you I am building the porches dealership in englewood I have a 2016 Tacoma off road I just have a leveling kit on it with 285-75-r16. Dig your videos!

Love the truck man but I gotta ask.. is that a butanere you got on your flannel?

Great video Mike! If you could do it all over again would you go with 34's or skinny 33's?

Excellent info bro.. Where did you get the wrap done and how mu h does it cost? I have a customized design in mind

Hey Mike I really appreciate the video! If you could help me out that would be awesome! I just got 33s on my 17’ TRDOR with icon tubular delta joint UCAs and 2.5 icon reservoirs I did a cmc and I’m still getting slight rub on full compression. Im going in to get a new alignment done to hopefully help with caster but my question is what do you recommend for your alignment specs? Specifically caster? Im currently at about 3.5 and was thinking about going between 4 and 4.5 + caster. Any thoughts?

What bumper are you running in this video? I know it’s a year old but I like that you mentioned it was a light bumper. Thanks in advance.

How have the factory fix coils been for you any problems and or would you prefer any upgrades to that or the ones in the back if I wanted a camper and stuff in the back?

I was going to ask what you did for gears, now don't need to. Did you correct your speedo from stock to 33s to 35s? I kept it reasonably light, went with a lighter weight wheel that I liked along with load range C 33s, and take the bed rack and tent off whenever not in use. 62 mile round trip daily on I-25... I'm averaging 19.5 mpg in summer and 17.5 in winter stock 3.90 gears. Any idea how much over stock the CBI front bumper and skids added over stock? As always keep killing it Mike!

I’d really be interested in learning more about that skinny spare you have hidden under there!

I am wondering if using the same amount of lift (2,5 inches) with a long travel front upper and lower arms (such as from Total Chaos) would mitigate all clearance issues without the need of the reallocation. I was considering this solution to my Hilux, which is pretty much nearly the same as Tacoma. Any experience with that?

What is the biggest wild peak you can put on a taco straight off the lot without rubbing?

Do you have a diff shop you recommend? I'm down in the springs and looking to go 4.88's here soon and i don't know anybody personally with diff shop experience. Don't want to rely completely on google reviews.

On stock Trd off road what’s biggest tire you think not a rock crawler by any means but does go where it’s pointed

Hi..... What's about the speedometer it change or speed gage is change or you need to adjusted thanks

What do you think about 35 or 37s on the v8 tundra. Should the gears be changed? It cane from dealer lifted and 4L seemed really good this weekend. I wanna go to 37 because of the 20" rim. I aired down to 20 psi but scared to go lower unless switching to 37s or changing rims but then that's more $$$ and I actually like the rims design

Alpine Design Cab relocation kit (instead of body mount chop) Link is broken. Not sure what this product is exactly.

Does anybody know if 2 inches of lift is sufficient - obviously along with all the other prerequisites - just curious about the actual lift itself. Thanks :)

Are you able to run Chains on the front? Do they clear? Or would it be better to run cables due to the clearance with the UCA? Great video

I got a long bed, in your opinion, would 33s still be ok if I wanna overland around Moab and that type of rocky terrain trails? Also how much lift would you suggest?

The new wrap is legit

any update on the stock rim and the 285/75/16?

I get why you don't use steel Bumpers coz it's heavy, would you use titanium bumpers if money wasn't a problem? how would you design it better to make it more aero dynamic? or is that not possible with your whole setup?

I wish I saw 15 miles per gallon in my 80 series, that’s why I’m putting it up for sale and going to a tacoma. The debate is TRD pro or TRD off-road? I’m thinking off-road because I can get a 3 inch lift put on to gain more ground clearance the a Pro. 5:29 gear are must.

Mike, great video. My question: what do you have to add/change to keep your speedometer and tachometer correct? Does the addition of new gears correct that issue? Thanks and keep up the good work.

Josh Sampson if you've put bigger tires than stock, regearing often helps or completely resolves that issue :) you'd probably have to find a chart online for your specific vehicle or ask a pro what's best for you.

That's a nice setup. But what's the most offset you can do without rubbing
