    Quick question
    Do you carry a full size spare with you?
    Also, any thoughts on putting out a video detailing what you’ve done to your Rav?

    • @rav4me
      @rav4me  14 днів тому

      Thanks so much. Yes, I do carry a full size spare, which unfortunately prevents the trunk/boot floor from sitting correctly. Not sure about making a video about modifications... maybe one day... I think there are more interesting RAV4 builds out there.

    Love the vids and editing! If you were to get a lift, would you go with the ironman ats suspension (that has a 2inch lift)?

    • @rav4me
      @rav4me  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for watching! Honestly I don't know which lift I would get. They all seem pretty good. I think I would go chat with a mechanic and get their view, because I don't know enough to make the best decision. Having said that, if one option gave me more lift in the back I'd lean towards that because I carry a lot of gear usually.

    Hey mate! Thanks for sharing all these nice vids! Just wondering what kind of RAV4 you own (if it’s an adventure or not) and how is your corrosion cable condition after all these roads. Also, what year is your car? Many thanks in advance!

    • @rav4me
      @rav4me  14 днів тому

      Thanks for watching! It's a 2019 GXL AWD. I haven't checked the corrosion cable myself, but given I'm not driving on salted roads I'm not expecting any issues. I'll let you know if I have any issues.

    I have watched all your videos now, love the content! I am thinking of doing a similar set up, except maybe going to a 245/70R16 on the AT3W. My question is, do you have any rubbing issues when the suspension is in full compression and in full lock?

    • @rav4me
      @rav4me  Місяць тому +1

      Thanks so much! Actually when the tires were new, there was slight rubbing at full lock and shock compression. Not enough to be a concern though. After a few thousand miles the rubbing stopped. It looks like 245/70r16 is almost exactly the same dimensions as mine, so they should be ok. Don't forget you also need to consider the wheel offset on your rims. You're adding about 2cm of extra width, so you would want to offset about 1cm of that inwards. (Sorry for the terrible explanation. Definitely research this if you havent already worked this out).

    • @locoman3498
      @locoman3498 Місяць тому +1

      Sweet, thanks for the heads up on the offset - I’ll keep that in mind when getting the new set of wheels.

    Hey. Was wondering if you could tell me if you installed any underbody protection (skid plates etc). I've been looking at various types and curious what you used - if any. Great content and phoptography. Thank you. :)

    • @rav4me
      @rav4me  2 місяці тому

      Hi Seb, are you referring to the roof rack/platform? If so I think it is unlikely to be suitable for a vehicle with a sunroof, but perhaps the manufacturer can advise. There's a link and details in this video's description. I hope this answers your question. Cheers.

    Good morning. Allow me to contact you. I recently discovered your channel, subscribed and really enjoyed your videos. I am planning to soon buy a Toyota RAV4 fifth generation hybrid, I want a vehicle vehicle vehicle vehicle vehicle that has off-road capabilities. I am in France. sorry for the english. in view of your videos which are very pretty and very very well shot and filmed I confirm that this vehicle has real off road capabilities nevertheless can you tell me what modifications have been made to the vehicle I am thinking of the model of rims as well as the tires . by any chance do you know the maximum admissible payload on the roof in the event of putting up a roof tent. thanking you in advance for your possible response and congratulations again for all these very beautiful videos thank you and good luck to you

      Tires: Falken Wildpeak AT3W 245/65r17. I don't currently have a lift kit, but I would highly recommend getting one. For the roof top tent, the total weight of your tent and cross bars should be under 80kg. Good luck!

    Here's some constructive criticism. I'm not a hater or troll ..... I subscribed for RAV4 content ... But over 40 videos now showing pretty much all the same thing . No talking. Trail shots , drone shots etc... it's getting old man . I mean it's well edited and produced. But we need a change of better interesting content . Let's do a full rig walk around explaining everything . Mods , any issues that you've had with the rav4 and so on.... And maybe an insight on where you want to go with the channel or future mods for the rav4...... Just some food for thought
