Wow. A video that gives an actual dollar amount for aftermarket parts. I can’t think of any other overlander content creator that’s ever done that. Kudos.
Crazy.. what labor is. The ability to do it yourself and weld is priceless. I built a frame off rotisserie restored f100 with a coyote swap and all new everything for the price of the first two things 😂 My tacoma has about 10k in shit in on it and it’s all king w/dirt king long travel on 35s and a kc pro6 lightbar. That’s it. It would probably cost twice that if you have it all installed by a shop.
Just wait until you find out about grocery stores vs the price of fine dining 😆 jkjk, but $150/hr is the average shop rate in Colorado and it should be more for specialty…
@@dwighthouserdude it’s 200 bucks here in SoCal. When I built my truck, it was frame up. So everything that goes back in was new. I did all the fabrication work and everything else, but I had zero clue how to wire a car from nothing or plumb custom brake lines. I called some shops and they quoted me some insane numbers. Long story short, I learned how to do it myself 😂 I got more time than money lol
Dude, it's great build. The only thing I'm iffy with is the rear end. I would have done a 60 or a 9 inch, both give you the ability to match the front width or keep it close to the front width and keep the tires off the shock bodies when flexing without spacers. For this level of a build, it needs that rear end.
May be a dumb question, but when doing all of these mods, do you have to turn off all the new Toyota Safety Sense features, or do they still work? Awesome truck build, well worth the $ spent.
@@mtnyotasok what’s the first? Fuel tank? Unless you mean hitch skid cuz yea those are useless Diff skid from what I hear is just to make sure the drain fluid bolt still works. Which I can see the logic but yea you’d have to hit a lot to shave enough steel off to have a problem
That expense is over the top - if I was going to take my 2022 4Runner to that level I’d just go 74Weld portals front and rear and new steering rack and call it a day. Maybe $30K in for that out the door installed. Hope that kids doesn’t roll his new $100K rig

The tune that comes with a Procharger... they're all based on VF Tuner (OTT, OV, KD Max, etc...) but you'll either need a custom tune or THE tune from Procharger/Magnuson if you're doing forced induction.
@@mtnyotasThanks for replying. Why did you go with the Procharger versus the Magnuson. Whats your take on the argument SCs aren't worth it on tacos? (I've been thinking about one... even test drove Magnuson SC (regeared) but didn't a major major difference. To be fair, the taco was juiced out with a ton of overlanding weight.) Thanks!
It’s always over payload when doing this extent of a build. You can’t do a rtt and full armor and meet payload. If you lose the tent the truck will be much more durable unless you like breaking and fixing things. It’s enough weight it probably should have a Dana 60 rear from Ecgs Unless you believe mods can improve payload. But I disagree with that logic you’re just gonna find the next weak point
113 hours of labor at the average rate in CO, $60k in parts (we don't determine that price), and tax on top of parts... thank you for commenting, but you are just wrong.
Once I noticed it too I couldn't continue watching it. Since was watching it on my galaxy s23 and zoomed it in to only see his shirt it helped me watch the whole video lol.
Imagine how much he would have save if he just bought Portals. What a waste. 20k 37s with regear or all the fab work they did with a rear diff still dragging.
I didn't stop watching but I'm right with ya... about to buy a truck and trying to get some ideas to do an overlander build but my pockets ain't that deep lol
You lost me at your sales pitch about re-gearing. Any good re-gear company will warrant their work. Furthermore, one would be much better off going with a shop that only dose re-gearing.
Oh we definitely warranty our work, it’s just extremely rare that any warranty issues arise if we do the gears in-house. You should get your gears done with whoever you’re comfortable with and confident in.
Wow. A video that gives an actual dollar amount for aftermarket parts. I can’t think of any other overlander content creator that’s ever done that. Kudos.
Thanks so much!
I’m more impressed on that 371 miles till empty range 😂 that’s a dream truck build!
Thank you!
You guys killed it! Thanks for everything! We love this freaking truck!
Thank you for trusting us to build it!!!
I want your truck
David will need to show this video to anyone interested in it if he ever sells it 🎉. Definitely a home run build.
Thank you!
Amazing build!
Glad you like it!
You guys killed this build. MOUNTAIN YOTAS FTW!!!!!!
Needs a rack….
Love you.
this is the kind of video every overlander should be watching
Appreciate it!
This is one of the best builds
Thanks!

That's awesome man! 99% of people are either too busy to do that or simply do not want to do it themselves.
Congratulations to David- pretty much my dream build- I’ll make my 2017 work for now haha
This truck is insane!!!! The one up on the lift is a looker too 😉
Yessir!!!
It sure is!
"RAaApTor!" The white glasses! LOL!! T That was awesome Dwight.
😂 you knew that guy in high school too?
Yes. I still know him now! Screenshot and sent to him LOL. @@dwighthouser
😂 ☠️
Really nice! Now I have to go down a portal wormhole.
It's the best wormhole...
I hope they threw in some free stickers after they were done. Shops like this is what makes me diy spent more on labor then actual parts
Beautiful truck
It sure is! Thanks!

Agreed...
Epic!⚡🏔️
I wouldn't go above a 33 if you don't want to regear, but we think a regear (4.56s or 4.88s) is beneficial even on 33s.
I actually saw this on the road recently.
LUCKY! :-)

Glad you like it!
Pricy but well worth it! 🤙
What no Portal axles or Currie Dana 44 extended rear axle?
21:18 ok you and I think alike since you would do portals
:-)
I bought a $400 dyson vacuum cleaner and added $20 grand in mods and it still doesn't suck as hard at that Toyota
LMAO
All that work and no diff armor on the rear axle.
The 2nd most unnecessary piece of “armor”…
@@mtnyotasok what’s the first? Fuel tank? Unless you mean hitch skid cuz yea those are useless
Diff skid from what I hear is just to make sure the drain fluid bolt still works. Which I can see the logic but yea you’d have to hit a lot to shave enough steel off to have a problem
I'm 80k on a set of falcons right now
Wild eh! You got any life left in them?
Bet I can still wheel and rock crawl harder with the 6 grand worth in mine 😂😅
Shitboxes are the most fun to wheel hard, sooooo.... lol
Hoooly moly
Damn.. I didn't realize yall included labor to the cost of the build. In that case I have $90k taco 😂
the labor costs were almost as much as the parts. holy transistors batman.
Nothing wrong with Power Stop breaks, I would prefer a Tundra brake retrofit
That expense is over the top - if I was going to take my 2022 4Runner to that level I’d just go 74Weld portals front and rear and new steering rack and call it a day. Maybe $30K in for that out the door installed. Hope that kids doesn’t roll his new $100K rig
Can't go wrong with portals either way...
I personally would of just done a solid front axle for that price point .
Nobody cares about what you think
It'd be more than this if you added a SAS to this... highway driving would be quite a bit different too.
$84K in mods?
I’m a numbers guy and you’ll NEVER get that much money out of it
Nice rig. Affordable build 👌🏻
Thanks!
I feel like for 84k it should at least have a v8 under the hood lol
I wouldn't be opposed to an LS swap... we just did a 1UZ swap on a 4Runner.
@@mtnyotas that’s gangsta 🥩
If I spend this much, I’m taking my Dad’s 2017 DCSB SR 4-cyl 4x2 and:
Diesel conversion from DieselToyz
SAS w/ Portals
Marlin 3-spd crawler box
Currie rear end w/ Portals
ARB air lockers f/r
RSG sliders
Backwoods Adventure Mods f/r bumpers
Various lights I have accumulated
Winch
TE37T 16” wheels
Falken Wildpeak AT3W
You forgot a 4WD conversion :-)
@@mtnyotas well the SAS & Marlin 3-spd crawler box kinda implied the 4WD conversion
Dads !!!
Need a supercharger for all the added weight!
It is supercharged... we put a Procharger on it.
You forgot the PORTALS, From 74WELD.
Portals are next on the list :-)
with that money i wouldve sas it lol
Have you heard about something called Jeep Wrangler/ rubicon ?with 37’s inch tires!
If you’re not running 40s on your Jeep then it’s small.
What tune did you install?
The tune that comes with a Procharger... they're all based on VF Tuner (OTT, OV, KD Max, etc...) but you'll either need a custom tune or THE tune from Procharger/Magnuson if you're doing forced induction.
@@mtnyotasThanks for replying. Why did you go with the Procharger versus the Magnuson. Whats your take on the argument SCs aren't worth it on tacos? (I've been thinking about one... even test drove Magnuson SC (regeared) but didn't a major major difference. To be fair, the taco was juiced out with a ton of overlanding weight.) Thanks!
What does a truck weigh after all the modifications?
A bit more than stock lol... no idea honestly.
It’s always over payload when doing this extent of a build. You can’t do a rtt and full armor and meet payload. If you lose the tent the truck will be much more durable unless you like breaking and fixing things. It’s enough weight it probably should have a Dana 60 rear from Ecgs
Unless you believe mods can improve payload. But I disagree with that logic you’re just gonna find the next weak point
Would it be weird to go portals and stay 35s?
Nope, you'd be able to get a lot of down-travel out of your suspension... nothing wrong with that at all.
You hooked him up on rocksliders.screwed him over on everything else.
113 hours of labor at the average rate in CO, $60k in parts (we don't determine that price), and tax on top of parts... thank you for commenting, but you are just wrong.
@@mtnyotas yea i would just get a trd pro.
wow all those cost more than the truck.
Looks cool. Wanted to watch all of it but the crotch cam was a bit too much crotch. Some crotch good, a lot of crotch not soo good.
Gonna blame the ol’ video guy on that one 🤣 you’re not wrong though.
Once I noticed it too I couldn't continue watching it. Since was watching it on my galaxy s23 and zoomed it in to only see his shirt it helped me watch the whole video lol.

I had to stop watching half way through cause I was getting too jealous
LOL

84k lmao
Great feedback!
not worth that much lol
Might be the most depressing video I’ve ever watched. Lol
Unlimited money and you buy a Tacoma???? Ha
As if that's their only vehicle... lol.
