3rd Gen 4Runner Long Travel shakedown trip 

Showing the 4runner was good,but showing the FAMILY TIME,was great. Great video,cheers.

Gen 3 Runners ROCK

Jump Looked like it landed on clouds 🤘👍

All the MONEY and MATERIAL STUFF IS WORTHLESS IF YOU DON'T HAVE FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO ENJOY AND SHARE IT WITH. Bro, I came here wanting to build my 3rd Gen 4runner but now am leaving here wanting to build a FAMILY 👪. VERY INSPIRING. Wish it was a lot longer.

absolutely killer angles of the suspension underneath in action. Loved that. Really gives good perspective... I was like.... whaaaaaa

Memories like this last forever. Pure gold

Beautiful Video. Beautiful Family. Beautiful Truck!

Great video. Thanks for sharing. The difference between a mid-travel and long travel system is amazing.

As great as the suspension might be, I bet what made you the happiest that day was that you were able to enjoy it all (the truck, the desert, etc.) *with* your family. Congratulations man 👍

As a single guy, living a single guy life. I look toward you and your family, and your rig. And I nod my head in approval we’ll done mister

Aaah,,,,,the stuff dreams are made of. What a great build,..definitely worth the effort. And the wait.

Just amazing! Definitely worth all the time you’ve spent working on it, can’t wait for the next trip so I can join you guys!

amazing, glad its all up and running again and its even better

The smile on your kids faces said it all. Great job!

when she tipped i started sobbing and i say that by absolutely zero exaggeration.

This is what it's all about: taking your family and friends amazing places and feeling free.

What a great video, love that you took your family, what a day well spent, by the way, nice set up, you have your money invested.

This is just grade 'A' wholesome. Nice rig!!! Just did 5100's all around with new coils and JBA uppers. Someday ill do long travel!

Just a dude and his 3rd gen. Awesome vid! 👌

This was motivation to fix my truck. Thx man and congrats

Yes!! I was waiting for this video!!

Nice to see a family wheeling together

Unreal, would love to do this to my 3rd gen someday!

Wow look at that thing work!

those jumps made it look like you landed on some clouds! so soft, sweet truck Jason :)

Sweet build dude!! Awesome finding other Yota RU-vidrs!

Hell yeah that thing rides smooth !! I can only imagine how well it’ll do with the outboard shock relocation kit !

Ultimately my goal with my 97 t4r. Perfect setup. I live in anza so I'd be using it all the time. Right now I'm running OME/bilstein and it's ok but king is way to go. Great video I subbed for 4runner content.

Pure goals mate. Love how this setup handles everything on and off pavement. I’m running metal tech rear long travel. Some day I’ll go LT in the front. Subscribed 👍🏼

Killer video 🤙🏼🤙🏼

Beautiful rig!!

Nice build, man.

Adorable kids, bad ass 3rd Gen.

I love watching that thing launch over the dunes. In Australia long travel is not very popular but I'm sold it looks too fun. Just started building a 95 4runner!

Beautiful truck 👍

That things a freakin dune buggy bud, well done

nice 4R, nice trail

Poetry in motion...

i love it 🎉

Insane bro

Great truck. takeoff on jumps is a little off but lands so smooth and great!

Awesome! This is exactly what I want to do to my 90 Nissan Safari in San Diego. Let me know if you have any words of advice.

is this a 2wd kit or 4? what was the end wallet damage haha thats friggn sweet even 3 years later

i am from thailand. and i want control arm like you use . any suggestion of buying it, please?

Dude where did you got your off road fenders I love them

I didn’t even realize you were OPT! So cool. I went with the same BTF/ king setup and it’s fantastic. Currently trying to see if I can somehow get 16” out of the rear of mine while keeping most of the cab, it’ll be a project for sure haha. The rear end setup you’ve got in this vid was absolutely eating though, very much impressed

Looks like she rides good Nice Lookin rig man.97➡4Runner363,000miles #ToyotaStrong

4x4 or 2wd?? And how much for complete set? Sick rig!!! I want this same setup on mine!! Love how you were able to drive it there and back no problem.

What headlights are those?

What front fenders are u using

Hey man love the jumps I'm trying to build out my suspension on my gen three. what spring rate are you running on your front and back springs?

Awesome!, Especially that jump landing. Definitely soften up the rear end a little bit. Seems like it's not cycling much of its travel.

I read thru comments but didn't see what I'd like to know. I'm assuming you went wheel spacers in back to widen rear track? If so how thick are they and have you had any fails/ premature wear since installing them? Great looking rig and thanks for being a stand up dad. Peace!

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

dude can you send a link of your off road fenders, i looooove your 4runner

Dig your 4Runner stoke dude! And nicely built rig, for sure! I have a 2nd gen that I'm building out very similar... Question: How do you find having a wider front track width affects highway driving performance? Is your rear end spaced out to match?

Nice 4Runner. I’m looking to install a 3” lift with bigger tires what’s a good size tire without affecting the gas mileage so much? I currently have 16” stock that I like to keep but with bigger tires.

Where did you get your front bumper from

Have you got your full suspension write up posted anywhere?

Hey my birthday :)

did you widen the rear axle housing also?

Nice rig thought. I like the front bumper. It is a specific brand or a custom made?

are you running a bodylift to fit those tires? I'm assuming 35x12.5?

Aye man i honestly need to pick ur rig apart. Whats ur lift height? And what did u do with ur panhard? Im deciding between adjustable panhard or brackets. What would be ideal is a tank relocation and triangular 4link but ya know...

Hey if you don’t mind me asking where can I get that long travel kit?

can you do a video where you sum up what you did to your 3rd gen and what was the total cost

Someday I'll build long travel suspension for my S10 blazer

Where did you get your projector headlights? Looking for some for my 3rd gen!

That was so cool, how much for everything?

Why not run same track on rear and/or go to 4 link? Would love to apply this to hilux with blown LS1 to use as a work truck that can actually handle the way I treat them lol. Being able to do long distance road trips and also hit whoops when I get to remote locations would be nice. Would have to redesign the tool and equipment storage compartments just a touch though haha

How much It kit?

Yaaaa I’m sold...hope there’s a kit for an 85

What gear do you have on the roof?

love these videos! please keep uploading i have a 2001 and im obsessed with 3rd gens like these! how did you learn to do all this yourself?

what suspension and springs do you have? I have 450lb 18" long springs up front and OME 861s in the rear and mine does not move near what yours is. My tires rub like crazy under full bump.

Is the track wider in the front?

The jump was very necessary. :)

3:24 yaaaa

What roof rack is that?

your still using drum brakes, they make a kit to swap the rear drums for discs

Shocks no damping. Accu Tyne need to set up

What's a good setup for a 4runner ?

in my internet travels i've found shrouded heims, aka, heim joints with rubber shrouds, and grease-able too(grease-serts). maybe worth searching for?? yeah as it turns out you can also just by 'dust boots' for heims, maybe same thing. drill for grease serts? anywho, sweet set-up.

What BTF Kit is this?

Your sons a hard ass I love it

Cool setup but I wouldn’t consider that a long travel suspension

How much did the build cost you?

Is that 2wd or 4wd?

idk for that money I'd go for a SAS

Man that was a really good video I might need to pick your brain a little bit I used to have a full-fledged bill ranger Baja truck twin I-beam wish I never got rid of it but now I have a 03 4Runner that I've been racking my brain how I can get it to be somewhat like my old Baja truck Hit me up and shoot me a DM I'd love to talk to you on your build I got an old man emu lift on mine right now which I like it but it needs a little more to stand out

what size are those tires?

420*

Wouldn't get read of my 3rd gen for anything

Fuck I should of never giving my wife my 4runner

not bad. But not the best. Lol

Looks like fun, but you should encourage people (most people) to NOT drive like that.
