Thought to put this out to the group, I realize this really isn't a build but more of a bolt on but you all know more than I do. I make that statement because well...guys be like "my AR Build" but really what they mean is buying stuff and attaching it, unless they truly are machining parts. Just my AR gripe, doesn't apply here.
Generally speaking. Function and cool factor. If I wanted only function I'd buy a POS HMMWV and keep throwing money at that raggedy thing (sorry I'm biased).
2022 Ideas
1- Bumper / Winch combo
2- Top rack
3- Suspension (maybe)
Bumper Winch:
Option 1: Fab Fours
Pro: I like FF stuff, have their bumpers on my truck, price and availability is good
Con: Kinda blocky, doesn't appear to be fully integrated
Option 2: C4
Pro: Man this thing looks good, fully integrated with winch / light blah blah.
Con: 14 week lead time, also does not come powder coated
Top Rack: No ideas yet. But limited space in the back of the 4 Runner for items I want to keep outside, gas cans or compressors, self recovery, etc. Want something with a lot of tie down points and solid build but doesn't have to be fancy.
Suspension: Not really sure I want a lift as I like the look and stance of the stock TRD. Also know that the stock Fox stuff is probably not as good as aftermarket, would like something good that can easily be replaced.
I feel like with all of the above it would be a good move in 2022, let me know your thoughts on some or all.
Thanks
