Nice runner man, 10" is the perfect amount to bob out of 4runners IMO. I did 10" on mine and it worked out great. Rear window still works and it looks much better for sure.

I ordered one of those too.....being on backorder for a while gave me time to realize that this is NOT what I wanted so I cancelled my order. I just dont trust this thing with my life or others. Have heard bad things about the fiber-core wire :ack: and quality control problems with wiring/terminals. I decided to hold out for a Warn...just a heads up from my experience/research.

Hey Austin, I got a question for ya...

I am wanting to trim my rear fenders a little, i was just wondering if the way you trimmed your rear was doable without cutting through to the interior? or did you have to do some patch work?

my fenders were trimmed to to fit 40" irocks wich i had before but now have 36's. the inner well has been all hacked n cut and needs to be redone with sheet metal. i'd say 36's require very mimimal trimming if thats what ur going to run.

if you had the headlight doors... you shouldnt need bigger headlights... just a food for thought.
and do they make bigger ones that would fit that opening... bigger then "7x6"

Well I have 35s right now but for my next set of tires I want some 37s. Already my rear fenders are getting pretty chewed. Just looking for some ideas of how much to trim.
