Five years old in excellent condition. This is the "small" model for two people. Fits perfectly on top of my Sequoia without hanging over the sides. I'm 6'1" and have plenty of room. Does have a fiberglass repair in one corner. These cost close to $5k new with shipping and tax.

Just bought a used Sequoia with a brand new set of these. I was digging on their highway manners and snow ability but I was thinking I would need to replace them with AT's before summer off-road trips, but I guess not! My impression from reading a few other reviews of these is that if you are...

Cool, thanks!

6x139.7 with a 108.1 center bore and 4.5" backspacing. Is that different than full size Montero's?

Any suggestions for lower offset wheels? Anything more than 2" will put me too far past the fenders. Thanks

It's an Airtop, so it's the same length as the roof. Do wheel spacers really make much of a difference in stability?

I managed to score a complete MS spare tire carrier with a color matched bumper no less. The only part missing is the internal backing plate (use really big washers instead?). I know it will look cool, but most importantly I can use a Trasheroo, put a ladder for the roof tent on it, have...

That talcum like dust near Ruby Lake is nasty stuff.

While I was down there I noticed that the body/frame bushings looked a little worn out so I tightened them all up, and on some of them I easily tightened the bolt a couple of turns. Car feels like it corners on rails now, relative to before at least. Could just be psychosomatic, but my wife...

Good to know, thanks. The link bushings on one side are kind of mushed, are those worth replacing? I had the front lower for awhile, bit of a stinkbug look, but I'm 6'1" and it made the top of the windshield feel even lower. I don't think these were really designed with the NA market in...

So... what would be the effect of links that are too short? OME lift kits do not include longer links for some reason. Maybe they expect you to remove them altogether?

Installed the OME springs and cranked the torsion bars up on my Sport awhile back. Supposedly it nets 1.5" of lift, but looks like a little more to me. It's pretty stiff, glad I went with the medium and not heavy duty springs! Wondering if I should install an inch or two longer sway bar...
