Installed a battery isolator, auxiliary battery, and light bar. Next up will be removing the back seat and installing electrical distribution, fridge, and drawers in its place.
Now that sounds fun! Would love to do the isolator and aux batt. Guess I’ll have to watch more YouTube vids.

Thanks! Wanted to stay with stock dimensions because the rims have some sort of a negative offset making them stick out more giving them the appearance that they are wider than they are.
Well it work out perfectly. The benefits of skinnies with the biggest drawback of looking too narrow.

Tossed 35"s on the GX470... Also did some clearancing. After 200 miles today, they feel great and the lady LOVES them.

Have 80% turn in reverse and 100% turn going forward. I'll finalize the cutting tomorrow after work for no rubbing at all.
They look amazing on there. How's your braking and initial acceleration now? I can definitely feel a loss in breaking even with my 33s (92lbs with wheel).

Thanks. I do feel the slight loss in the drivetrain. Eventually I'll regear, but not until I jump to 37s and fully armored, which will be a couple of years. For now with the 35s, it will make a great DD for the lady.

The V8 is still super nice and still feels much more powerful than our Subarus, lol.

Great looking setup! Looks like a lot of fun. Best of luck to you and the truck!
