- In this episode, we meet up with our buddy Dean Graen and he walks us through his solid axle 2005 Toyota 4Runner! There are less than 20 straight axle 4th gen Toyota 4Runners in the US and we found a good example of one with someone that is pioneering the setup.

Dean is one of the real ones. Honestly, every time his dad, his brother and him join our camp out in Lucerne, it's ALWAYS a blast.
I love seeing that linked “Tacoma or tundra” in the background waiting for a video 😂
@@Whyhereandnow I couldn’t really tell what is was from the angle lol I just knew it was a yota
I’m praying they do one 😂🙏🏼
@@canoncrouch2034 sameee
Drew Isenhower it’s the Second time I’ve seen it in a video! 😂
@@canoncrouch2034 secret project of some sort maybe??? Most likely thinking it will get its own vid in the near future tho
This is what I’ve been waiting to see!
The savagery of this build! So good!
Thank you for this! Great stuff.
I appreciate what you've done here because you've helped me decide against replicating what you've done here. It's what I thought I wanted and it looks like an absolute blast, but seeing it put together makes me realize my priorities are more in the crawling scene, so I'd rather specialize for cheaper.
It's my first time modding a vehicle and I've been researching for months, you alone have given me the exact info I needed to figure out exactly what I want to do.
So, again, thank you so much! You've gained a comment, a like, and some respect :)
Come by the shop and do a video of the Camburg Kids Ranger!
Toyotas are famous for there legendary strength in the 8" solid axle...I've seen them survive with 35" tires,lockers, and a good driver. Pound for pound one of the best axles. I had a set in my flat fender, and caught alot of crap but rarely caught a sweat changing axles..crazy...
Awesome build that looks even better in person!!
These videos have made me fall in love with fabrication more and more every time 😍
Nice build! Dig your vids! Thanks man!
What a master piece !!! Feel proud bro.
I've been waiting for the crawler videos..... More crawlers!!!
crazy bro! next level wish going on here!
Hell yea... more of this...
Sick Build
That's a badass rig.
Yes... this is the way 👏🙌👏🙌👏🙌
Soccer Mom SAS!! Love'n it!!
There are no words for this beautiful piece of art! 🔥🤘🤯
We’re slowly building a dune runner, trying to build off a solid foundation so for that reason, I’m having the electrical done first to support all the prerunner essentials
That exhaust dump is rad as fuckkkkk!! 🤘🏻
I have TOYOTA tattooed on my lower back !😉🤣😂
Mad props! I love your 4th gen but I love mine more 😅👍🏼🥲
Dope ass sweater Dean
I fkn love it. SAS swapped 'Yotas make me feel funny in my no-no spot.
Please more type of builds like the frontier son and pop builds are the best imo
What a beaut!
Lots of potential carnal thanks for sharing. And it’s a v-6 haha last Toyota was a Tundra on this channel it was a v-6 too what’s up with v-6? puro mole.
Seen this rig on IG, thanks for the vid. Been wanting to see more of it
What is his instagram?
@@joshuabryant7508 @_dean_graen_
awesome build man im looking to convert my 06 limited v8 awd but wanted to keep it overland and not specifically rock crawler... any additional advice if im looking to run the same oe axel up front with coils no leafs and leaving the rear stock oem? im looking for proper ride height and to fit larger than my 34"s and remove the weak point of the CVs as you too have experienced its a pain in the ass haha just fits my needs and reliability for my usage thanks!
MORE TOYOTA CONTENT PLEASE!
I think I’m gonna build my scrambler like this taco. Fuck yeah !!!!
are we just gonna ignore the tundra in the back round
Dean you are a mad man,Great build
That T100 in the back tho 🤫
Bruh theres a LOT of SAS 4th gens in norcal. Theres at least 10 in the sacramento area
I love theses build walk around videos but you guys should work on fixing the ISO and exposure for these videos
Cool capable ride!
So many questions...
Is it street legal? - no way would pass here in Oz.
How does the solid axil feel to drive? Does the truck track at speed on the tar?
I dont want to know the cost, but interested if it was cheaper to start with a standard vehicle and modify, compared to picking parts and makin a ...crawl-runner.
HUGE difference between people who build their rigs for "REAL" off-road use, and people who just like build their rigs to look like they do. This is as real as it gets.
I might get a jeep rubicon tj tomb raider edition but I want to build something awesome I currently have a 2007 jeep jk 4 door I just don't know what to do 😭
Un video de la trophy jeep de jax motorports porfavor
Terra I have a question to run 40s I'd have to do this yes?
Man hates keep that much he made a Toyota jeep. Lmao my man
Theres another one you guys need to do, but right now the owner is deployed overseas. Guys name is Jason. IG is @crazyj505.
Diggin all the vids! But you gotta fix your camera bro...
Done right
That looks mean AF
More of this please. Id like to hear total cost involved
I don’t think you do lol. I got quoted $7,800 for a sas with a bare g2 axle. And there would be a lot more needed after that....like gears and gussets etc. I would guess around the $10-$15k range without the cage
@@3.0colorado21 yeah my one ton swap priced out on the low was 6 to 8k on an xj doing it yourself mostly and you coukd go nuts and it's an endless expense for sure.
@@t.c.5274 and jeep parts are cheap compared to Toyota, I get a little jealous sometimes lol.
🤙
I’d rock the shit out of this!
Sick cage work man, can’t wait to get my 3rd gen done. Gonna upload today an update have the one ton axles under it and double triangulated front and rear.
I double triangulated the rear of my 3rd gen but 3 linked with a panhard up front due to clearance.. good luck with the build
Fact of the matter is even with the 4link king bypass shocks custom solid axle housing and custom axles, it's still cheaper than a custom long travel IFS..TLlhe stock stuff would still have to go..best of both worlds,kinda ...
have people not heard of RCV axels??
Is that what they run in rock bouncers and ultra 4?
@@lk6912 lol
RCVs and know how to drive and you won’t have problems lll
👍👍👍👍👍🤘🤘🤘😎
Okay...who do I need to talk to so My 4runnner can look like this?
someone give me the link to that screen he has
He’s like a lot of work. Then he’s like I didint do any of it 😂😂😂 loser needs to learn how to do his own work 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Hence half the people who own a off-road truck pay a shop to do work at some point. Some people aren't lucky to have space to build there trucks. Might want to pull you head out of your ass and not talk shit on people you don't know. If you followed him on IG you'd know he actually does 90% of his own work
I’m still learning. Why would you convert to a leaf spring set up?
More travel while keeping gas tank without going full 4link
@@bigandlittlecountry thanks I got to that and realized he answered it.
So not really a fits all performance upgrade.
@@ShiftersAndLifters everything has its pros and cons, his setup pulls way more travel than would have been possible with stock arms and coils plus keeps stock tank so it will pass smog. works great for crawling and desert use.
@@bigandlittlecountry thanks! It’s the first rig I’ve seen that went from coils to leafs in the rear so I was curious.
So what was the cost???
45k
Wont those rear leaf springs take a shit ton of damage?
they do. they are coming off as we speak
V6 come on
I feel like leafs in the rear is a cheap way out
It is. If it was already linked it just needed better arms. There’s a 4th gen 4runner with links and bypasses In the rear and it kills it
@@jackmossman7559 when I did tons and 40s on my 3rd gen everybody told me to do leafs on the rear. I was in the same boat as this guy (mind you this was 10 years ago) but there were no parts to make the links and coils long enough to do what I needed and clear a stock gas tank.
@@dankoldenhoven4997 yea 10 years ago is definitely a different time. today it’s so easy, ruff stuff has all the brackets and then some 16 or 18 inch kings with a correct length pan hard would make the rear boogy just fine. Crazy how far stuff has come and simpler to build
@@jackmossman7559 that's no joke companies are making it way easier now. I'm in the process of building another yota now... I hated every non yota part on that truck so I got rid of it. I had a kingpin 60 front with 35 spline cr-mo's and 300m u joints... that would just twist off. Without even wheeling that hard.
@@dankoldenhoven4997 I need to build another crawler. So much cheaper than the 1450 truck I’m building right now. Only thing Toyota that’s left is the cab shell and 2 feet of frame rail. I wanna get a first gen taco ext cab linked front and rear and a clean interior cage on some 40s. Nothing beats yotas
Not much clearance, though. 🤔
this is the most insane build ive ever seen. imagine how rich he'd be if he invested instead of do this silly custom build.
You've obviously never seen any other builds..
@@jobama3588 Ive seen hundreds. Builds are usually expensive, this isn't quite as bad as many of those but still, OP doesn't even tell you how many hours of his life he spent doing this, and if he did he'd probably be discounting it heavily.
Hard to find any solid axled rig ! Every car manufacturer is just making crossovers !😠
All that just to go places you could walk faster
Y la acción? Bla bla bla
I don't love it
