I like the eibachs but now my front suspension is making noise any ideas that can help me?
Maybe its coming from your front upper control arm bushings? Mine has been making a squeaky noise before putting this new suspension on. I still need to address that and I'm told to use some wd-40 water resistant gel spray.
Nice set up. I do similar with my Subaru Outback Wilderness. I went with the Exped MegaMat 10. Does Deepsleep have a r value? Also, when you car camp solo, do you just use the single mattress or still go with two?
I'm not sure on the R value but since I'm sleeping in the car, I didnt really pay attention to it. Also, I use a negative 35 degree blanket to help if it's cold. As for the deepsleep mattress, I can use only one side if needed but my wife goes with me att the time so we have both side installed.
Great video, very helpful!
thanks
Why not buy OEM TRD wheels?
These are wider than the stock wheels, plus they are way less in terms of price. If I take them off-roading and ding them, they are easily replaceable.
Hello Paul. Great video. Thank you for sharing your overland/camping/fishing with everyone. I agree with you that leaving our busy life to get away and be free for a few days is good for our health physically and mentally. I have been going almost every weekend and have been loving it myself.
Thanks. We have to enjoy life the best we can.
Nice vid...Could you adjust to less than 2 inch? maybe 1.5 inch?
I would think it's possible since I can still go down on the coil rings about an inch worth of thread however I have not tried it.
Dude, I am so glad I just found your video. I've had this same problem with my C1000 and support basically just said sorry, it's a "feature". I literally lost around $150 in food in my 12v fridge the other day because of the stupid power saver "feature". I just submitted a ticket to try and get the new update pushed to my unit. Hopefully I can get it because it's an infuriating issue that makes me never want to buy Anker products again. It's a great unit other than that one problem.
I’m glad it helped you. It did take a bit to get the firmware push but it’s now all good on my end and the u it works great now.
Thanks for the video Paul. Could you tell me if the charger is 220V rated. It should be listed back of the charger.
anyone know where to get a new charger/spliter?
You might want to contact Chasing Gladius for that cable.
Dayum that's loud.
Good to know how the new tires and rims are working out.
Thanks for the review on how they have worked out. I just subbed to your channel, looking for tips with my 2023 4Runner.
Thanks.
Paul, love the wheels and will be getting a set as soon as I take delivery of my 4runner. I will be changing the center caps to the Toyota caps but I am not a fan at all of the red ring on the Toyota caps. This may be a dumb question but is that a sticker on them that can just be peeled off?
It’s painted in red but you could probably use a permanent marker to color it in. From what I recall, the center cap is two piece. You can probably take out the center trd logo and the. Spray paint the red ring, then clip back on the trd center to the red ring.

Greetings Paul, Did you secure the BendPak 4 Post Lift to the concrete floor or did you leave it not anchored? If it is not anchored, how sturdy is it? Thanks! Thomas
Its not anchored at the moment but if I get an air/hydraulic sliding jack installed, I'm told it needs to be anchored. As for sturdy, it's pretty sturdy however you have to make sure that all 4 post are on flat concrete. If not, the post will wobble which is not safe.
Roger that. I appreciate the expedient response.
Hi
After years of off grid camping in my 4Runner and Tacomas, and having used K02s in the past. Absolute the best tires you can get for offroad use, if you tend to avoid slick rock and deep mud are Michelin Defenders. A light weight road tire that will absolutely get you there and back. If you want aggressive looks, look elsewhere. But if you want tough tires that won't let you down and that also are quiet and light for the road, get the Defenders.
agreed!
Id buy that if i was british if is in british
Hey man, i was thinking of getting a mild lift (1.75 front and 1 rear) to fit 275 in the future with bilstein 5100. Some ppl say bilsteins r a bit rough. Do you think going with Eibach stage 1 will make a difference? I will have to get 2.5 inch lift up front though right?
I have bilsteins in the back and some heavy duty Toytec 2.0rc springs. It's stiffer than stock in the rear but I like it like that. I think the Eibach stage 1 will work fine although I would recommend the eiback pro 2.O that are adjustable so you can adjust the front up or down as needed.
@@PaulVang I do agree with you, but I almost feel like the might be overkill for me give I don't want crazy lift probably ever. just want to gain that leveled look. Eibach stage 2 will cost about 1k more and I could totally use that for rims that I like.
@@taifmunsur It might be overkill. I think the Eibach stage 1 might work for you but I don't know enough about them to suggest them. I know the bilsteins rear shock works fine in my car.
I put some all-terrain hancook on my forerunner. It was getting slight wobbling once I hit 70 to 80 miles an hour. All season tires I did not get the wobble.
Same here. Now I'm on a new wheel setup with new geolanders and the wobble seems to have disappeared for the most part except for a very minor small steering shake at 60mph. I can live with that. It almost just seems like it could also be the uneven road causing it to vibrate at 60mph.
@@PaulVang OK well thanks for the information. Good to know right now. I have all seasons I might have to look into that brand when I switch over to alter. Thanks again.

Thanks for the information!
Hi Paul, Im trying to decide which tires to get...its between these and the falcon wildpeaks. I dont really do any off roading but i love the look of the tire...would you recommend these for just everyday use? Also how is gas mileage? Thank you,
Gas mileage stayed the same or at least I didn't notice a difference. I had the BFG K02 before these tires. For the most part, these tires are awesome. I don't mind driving with these tires every day. It is a bit louder than the factory or the KO2 but I really don't even notice it. I heard as time goes on, it'll get louder but I have yet to experience that. As for the falcon wilkpeaks, those would be the tires I'd try next. I think they are better for street use with the occasional weekend outting.
@@PaulVang thank you!
The wheels u changed from were original trd 7inch width wheels? Do you think the road noise is due to change of tires as well not wheels?
That is correct. It's is definitely from the choice of tire.
@@PaulVang looks good I am hoping to get these in bronze for my 4runner on stock with no lift. hope it turns out well.
@@taifmunsur It definitely will.
Can you still use your stock wheels and tire?
They'll still work fine.
Do you need to install a diff drop kit if you install a lift kit?
I didn't have one until recently. It still drove fine without it for me.
Thank you for a wonderful video I would like to see more footage of that drone in the water itself.
Thanks for the video, good stuff.
Paul , it is good sharing. The one you got is actually called Chasing MiniS Flash Pack, I call it MiniS Combo in 🇨🇦😂. They have the version with no claw👏
Does the nut and bolts comes loose with aluminium?
It's been okay so far. They haven't undone themselves.
Also is it possible to lose your tune with a chip burner? I have a tune set up but I want to change the two step and vtec but wanna make sure I’m not gonna f it up when I hook it up to burner and pc
If you do a read from chip, you should be fine. You won't lose any data from the chip
How many rpms can I change for vtec engagement without altering the tune? I have lsvtec high comp pistons I think 12:1 with b16 head. Full exhaust (no cat) and real cold air intake. Vtec is set high at 5700 right now. I gotta turn off or turn up two step as well. Chip burner comes today
There's a peak setting where you want vtec to engage after tuning the low cam and the high cam maps. The transition is defined after the tune where the low cam power drops and the high cam power increases however you can set it to whatever vtec rpm you want assuming you know you're not running it's full potential once changed but theres different reasons why one would change it.
How is the paint/finish on the wheels holding up?
It’s great. Not a problem at all. The fit and finish is still good.
You did just the front? What about the back, doesn’t look stock.
I had toytec hd springs in the back while the front had block inserts. I decided to change the block inserts for a full coilover.
My version doesnt have the USB C connection and i have to ret on WIFI..for the life of me it just wont connect...I can connect through WIFI but the ROV light on controller keeps flashing and the start button on app says greyed out
I've notice when my connection acts up, I have to put it into airplane mode, turn off wifi/bluetooth and then turn it back on before connecting. It seems to work for me.
@@PaulVang Tired that..Ive sent a Video to support, ROv light just flashes continiously..beginning to think it could perhaps be more a hardware issue
@@Titannz213 maybe try on another phone? I had an issue with my iphone and have to switch to a andriod.
@@PaulVang Ive tried my ipad etc same thing...sent video to there support and i got a quick response..If my drone hasnt been used for quite sometime which is the case with mine (Well over 18months) i need to leave on charge for over 24hrs to kickstart the battery...they are confident that is the case. Keep you informed
How many inches would you recommend setting the front for a slight rake?
My setup that way it is has a rake already but if you are looking to lower it a bit, Id say give the coilover a1/4to 1/2 turn and see how that looks on your setup.
What psi did you keep these at?
I dont recall exactly but I believe they are around 35psi.
Get out down and enter 45 fdegreee up. And you hsve inspection tools Gps amd BT on it stays in 13 knots stream of water. And stays spot on same spot
Bt and gps always on if not unæ get trouble every video. Importent to have 4k phone ore tablet making bad Video
I bought Eibach Pro-Truck Coil-Over Kit Stage 2 front and back for 4 Runner 2016 but mine has KDSS will I have to modify anything.
Good question. I'm not too sure on this. You may want to reach out to Eibach for clarification.
Thanks for your video and review! I'm going with Eibach also. Can you tell me your tire and wheel sizes and wheel offset? Thanks!
Tires are 285/70/17. Rims are 17x8 +5 offset
The lift numbers don't really make sense until I went back and looked at what you removed from the truck, you had an OEM shock with a spacer lift before?
That is correct. I had spacers in the front.
I am selling a pair of these after 3k miles. 😂
Was there an issue with your setup?
@@PaulVang These are perfect for stock weight vehicles. Once you add more pre-load, the performance of this coil over will decrease. Eibach customer support told me that it will have less rebound travel in that case.
@@gulu-cat That is good info to know. I will have not done anything else to the front end but I'll have to pay attention to the performance when I do add weight in the front.
@@PaulVang Pay attention to its down travel at full droop. The eibach coilover at full droop is limited by the shock length. If your UCA is far away from the coil spring at full droop, that means you can use a longer shock to get more down travel.
@@gulu-cat thanks for sharing that info.
Is this an overkill for 99% city driving ?
It's really not needed for a stock car. I only purchased it because I'm getting ready to load up the front end with a winch and will need to adjust the front end to the additional weight.
Not overkill if you hate the nose dive or body roll.

Are the center caps OEM or did you purchase them with the wheels from AGP?
I received some AGP center caps but I later replaced them with OEM ones.
And they fit perfectly without any modification required? Do you have the part number for the oem ones? @@PaulVang
@@saadansari4426 They fit perfectly. No modifications. This is the one I got: www.ebay.com/itm/186107322838?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338353142&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1
Great video Paul question I have a 3rd row 4Runner as well what do you use to level the sleeping area when you fold the 3rd and middle rows inside the 4Runner?
I use blocks to level out the whole car instead of the inside folding seats. There is still a slight curve in the seat but it's not too bad.
Debating to get the Gladius mini or the FiFish V Evo
I think you can't go wrong with either.
Dont get fishy shaite. It is s Toy for Kids fisking finhs
fifish v-evo has stronger motors so withstands the current better, plus it has attachable guards to prevent seaweed and what not getting in it. It is more expensive though, like a grand more.
crome not working in 2024?
still works fine. You have to download the latest version as it expires yearly.
I bought those tires and they are the best on stones, trails, snow, mud, but not for sand, because of the reinforcement I do not recommend them if you plan to take it to the sand, in the end I transferred it to another truck and had to buy another brand, which The same thing happened to my friends.
Thanks for sharing. I haven't tried them on the sand yet. I've only tried them on stones, mud and snow. So far they have been working fine.
@@PaulVang The reason why they are not good for sand is because when the pressure is lowered the tires (5, 6, 7 psi) as they are very reinforced, they do not deform like other cheaper brands. For the rest, they are great tires. I currently have them in a 3rd gen 4runner.
@@trolzealot8635 that makes total sense because these tires have thicker walls
Hi Paul, how are your tires holding up? Any updates? I just bought a set and I'm installing them next week to my SR5.
They have been fine so far but others have noted that these tires are not good for sand. I have not personally tried it myself so I can't confirm.
I don't think that mud terrain tires are better than ko2s in most snow conditions. However I like those Yokohama tires. Do you have KDSS?
Overall the tires have worked out fine for me. I had the k02 before and the work well, I just prefer the look of these tires more. I don't have kdss on my car.
