40-Inch Tires on a 4Runner | Dirt Every Day | MotorTrend
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Everyone knows that if you want to put 40-inch tires on a Toyota, you need to cut out the independent front suspension and put in a solid axle. But Fred Williams and Dave Chappelle have other plans. They want to see just what it takes to stuff massive tires on an IFS truck.

They just casually threw together tens of thousands of dollars of parts under that, and made it look like a simple and easy thing

That's what I was thinking the whole time watching this. Im guessing about $12k of aftermarket parts.
Absolutely zero f's given with that spring compressor haha, just cranked er down and shoved er in there like it wasn't about to kill you at any second haha! Love it! I used one when I did my lift on my 6.7 2500 and man all i could do was work quick and gentle and hope for the best haha.
The 4.7L v8 at that Time the 4runner waS faST at that time... Then some people started gaining weight and started BuYing OverSized trucks & Suvs with Hemi's & other brands with more Hp outputs! All being said, the engine 2uz does outlast other brands more times than not. Cool 4wd journey man! Keep them coming..
I'm so happy we got to watch the entire episode! thank you .

That was more like a third of two episodes -- this didn't show most of the build, but at least it did show some good wheeling.
Bevis and Butthead off road. You guys are great!😊
This was such a cool build, just like Fred I've always thought it a cool idea to build an IFS rock crawler out of a Toyota, Love it Thanks Guys

Love u guy, was watching every episode, before u got to paytv... glad some episodes are still here, even when they are shortened ... would love to see u back here!!
As a 3rd gen owner, this was one of the coolest things ever to watch. Even if that suspension costs more than the down-payment of a house😂

That marlin crawler long travel is supposedly coming eventually to the 3rd gen. I’m cool with my stock travel though.

Good to see a my gen of 4Runner is being tested! I have an 05 limited
One of the best off-roading videos guys. Awesome 👏
I really enjoyed watching this video!!!!! So awesome.
Just sold my 2015 Wrangler Rubi and picked up a TRD Tundra 4wd (I needed towing capacity), I already love it!!!! 35's and upgraded suspension already done.
Loved the video! That rear axle is a beast!
Dave is the best Spotter and WingMan to wheel with! 💪🙌✌
That’s 4runner V8 Is a beast I currently own one 2005 LIMITED V8 AWD beautiful video

I remember the Red Sled! It was a 2500 Chevy Silverado. I was really bummed the front end proved so fragile. I think he got an ARB for that 9.25" front end, then started blowing axles routinely, then added stout aftermarket axles and cracked the whole diff case. Basically concluded that SFA was required for serious wheeling. 😕 Now look how far we've come!

I've never owned a 4WD, but I love watching Fred & Dave 👍😆 The chassis crunching noisss are so difficult to listen to though ! 😩
Wish I had the guts to do this with my 1st gen Taco - 40s with IFS
Awesome video guys! Also sweet rig 🤘
Awesome Runner
Getting the merlin kit here soon and wasn't sure how to match up the rear axle. Just a week later come along this video and solved 1 headache.
Wow that thing is capable!!
Yep... you got yourself a bona fide rock crawler there... doing things I could only dream of in my '95 Pathfinder.

That thing is sweeet! I wanna turn mine into one of those
22R and RE baby! The bulletproof motor that can!

I like the paint job.
Great video. To help break in new tires... best thing to do is air down to around 4-5psi and drive around a grassy field for 10-15 minutes to break in the side wall. Then air back up to 8-9psi to go wheelin.
@wheels.and.wrenches
2 жыл бұрын
Depending on how thick the sidewalls are, you might need to air down even more than 4psi to get them bulging alot.
Awesome video man!! I wish you guys would do a 2nd gen Tacoma or 3rd gen 4runner D-4D diesel swap!! Wheres your energy tho man!!!
Nice wow
I can't believe you didn't break anything, thats a tough truck. Plus good person giving you directions.
What’s up with the blow up doll in the passenger seat reclining as you first start talking in the shop? Lol funny touch.
