I'm installing 285/70's tomorrow when my rims arrive and this definitely will help on my TRD ORP. Thanks.
👏🏻💪🏻
Thank you. I discovered that cut in my Pro, and many people didn't know about it.
You got it!!
Most people don’t.
Thank you for sharing this!
That rubbing noise was driving me crazy.
😉🙏🏻
awesome video! it's a great lesson for people who are doing a viper cut. the plier method is really good and overlapping cuts like in the TSB help to make it clean!
Absolutely!!
Full cuts could cause the paint to crack.
I appreciate your support!! 🤘🏻
Very good job. I added 275 70 17s with wheels zero offset. Very minimal trimming and used a heatgun to push the linner slightly back.
👏🏻👏🏻
Informative didn’t know of a tsb like this
🤘🏻
Love the channel. I bought my '23 TRD Pro new from the dealer last Feb. Just went outside and checked both sides in the front and those pieces are not there.
You know what that means, it’s had the fix performed then.😉
When I put my 285’s on (they were also on wheels with a negative offset. May not be bad on OEM positive offset) I had to cut not only a large part from the front, but also a BMC and large amounts from the rear of the wheel well as well. Oh- and had to remove the front Mudflaps. It was a HUGE cut job.
But…. It’s done. No regrets and it’s much better.
👏🏻👏🏻
I have 33s on mine without lift. Had a wheel alignment to adjust caster. Did the same trim you did
Very cool!!
Subbed a while ago. I didn’t even own a 4Runner. I just liked your videos.
I just purchased my wife a 2024 premium’s 4wd in the underground color. 3rd row, softex seating, heated seats and moonroof.
I almost want to trade my 21 tundra CrewMax 4x4 for one lol.
So she doesn’t want to lift it. It’s pretty much a mall crawler lol. Except we go to the snow, camping and fishing alot. With stock height she’s looking at some AT tires. She had the Ko2 on her 2020 RAV4 and.
What’s the biggest she can go with no rub? Non TRD.
Ko2
Woldpeak at3
Toyo open country
“””
She’s getting those same bronze heritage wheels.
Much appreciated for your support!!
Get 285’s and do this bumper chop and you will be golden.
Keep in mind that even in the stock form these 4Runners are very capable. 💪🏻
@@VikingsGaragethat’d be awesome. If it were mine.
I dint think she’d let me 😂. Is 275/70r17 ko2 good to go 🛞? With no mods no lift?
@hvega8199 They were my 2nd choice, install and enjoy.
timely - shopping for 285/70/17s for my new TRD ORP!
👏🏻👍🏻
I wish I had seen this 6 years earlier! 👍🏼
😅
I need to do this. When backing out of my driveway if my wheel is fully turned or close to it it will always rub. Sometimes it happens in drive while at full turn but not nearly as often. Definitely happens every time I bust a U'ee though and it's annoying AF.
You got this!!
Super easy 🤘🏻
Good stuff. My 21’ TRD ORP came with the XP Predator Pkg, a southeast port package, with TRD Pro wheels and 265/70R17 Nitto ridge grapplers. I’m wondering if the first owner had this done already as my tires don’t rub, that I’ve noticed. I’ll be checking mine in the morning for sure lol appreciate the content!
PS Put my beautiful Vikings garage patch on the rear of my back seat where I put all my patches, so the jealous drivers behind me can read them all when my rear window is down lol
God bless~

I appreciate you Mr. Chandler!!
This process is a Toyota approved fix for a TRD PRO ISSUE.
@@VikingsGarage yeah that’s right you did say that
I just bought a 2024 TRD pro and mine never rubbed not even offroading once fast forward I'm now on OME BP51's with 285/70R17's with the stock TRD wheels and still don't rub? 🤷♂️
Working hard here to get my silver 2018 TRD ORP to "PRO Spec"! Thanks for all the insightful videos! One thing I would love to do is match the black overlays on the back (Logo and 4RUNNER) to the letters on the front pro grille. I did get the OEM garnish. Those TOYOTA letters look different w every change of the light, any insights??? I'm looking towards 1H1 (Predawn Gray), 1E9 (Galactic Gray Mica) or maybe MGM 1G3 is closer?
Never thought of it. 🤷🏼♂️
I’m sure someone in a forum might know.
Great vid! 23 ORP, same problem. What's the TSB number?
Links to the 4 templates you used?
Love the content!
You can’t buy the templates, special service tool .

Can you tell when you get a 4Runner in for repair, people who take really good care of their car? Like I detail my engine once a month and I wonder if I ever took it in if the mechanic would notice
I can totally tell. Every time!!
It’s actually very rewarding to see every now and then that one person that takes pride in their vehicle.
Thank you sir!!! Do you think 285 70 17 or 255 80 17 would fit without a lift?
Definitely 285, although I would recommend a 1 inch lift with it.
not sure on the other size.
Which side of the Irwin pliers is the "red" side? And why does it matter which side is on the bumper painted side?
On your red 4runner you swapped the mirrors with heated Rav4 Canadian mirrors with a convex section of mirror. Is there a version of this for the 2020+ with BMS? Will you be adding it to the new 4Runner?
Not that I’m aware off. You would loose the BSM
Where is the dealership located you work at I’ll schedule an oil change done by the Viking.
Empire Auto Mall
Anyone know what those cutting pliers are called? Thanks!
Where did you get the stencils for the trimming?
I’ll m a Toyota Master Technician, they are part of a Special Service Bulletin.

Viking and Company, I could use some real world 4runner advice. My fam is considering nabbing one of these final 5th gens. Narrowed it down to the Offroad Premium, Offroad Premium with KDSS, or the TRDPro. Resale value is meaningful, though we do keep vehicles for the long term. Mostly on-road and light trail performance prioritized. No major offroading or modification intended at this time (perhaps mods in future), but we like to have serious get-out-of-a-jam capability just in case. How would you rate these three options?
In order of personal preference:
- off-road premium
-TRD PRO
I personally would stay away from KDSS.
Good luck with your purchase and enjoy!!
@@VikingsGarage thank you! may I ask what dissuades you from KDSS?
@windlord1111 I will once and for all address this question in a future episode
I had the same - rubbing when backing up out of the driveway and turning sharply. Similar solution. '17 4R on Cooper Discoverer AT3 4S: 265/70R17. Bilstein 5100s with about 2" lift.
Very cool!!
Great suspension choice.👍🏻
so I think this was fixed from the 2020 models to present in production?
Negative, the Lime Rush one you see in the video is a 2022. I had to perform the fix, it was rubbing. 😉
So now you can put in 285/70/17 tires.?
That is correct!
And you don’t need a lift? Wow😮
@alexk5157 😉
Where did you get those outlines??
It’s a Toyota special campaign tool. Not available to the public.
@@VikingsGarageJust did this today and the outlines aren’t super necessary. It’s an easy job and now there is zero rubbing! Thank you so much for this video!
