[Re: J94_4runner] #727162 06/06/06 08:17 AM Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 912 Engineer TheBandit Rock Warrior Quote a buddy of mine had a GENIUS idea. he's working on his right now. in rear... cuting out the floor and basically sinking the spare tire. like a lot of cars have in the cargo area. Supras are like that. it's a sunken tire well with a fake floor over it. so i'm gonna look into fab'n that up. and I have a 3" BL so that might help things out quite a bit. Keep in mind your 35 will probably barely fit between the frame rails. Also if it is flush with the floor, it may hang down quite a bit. Take a tape outside and see.

But you can pick up some storage around the tire beneath the false floor... Be advised you don't want to contact the frame crossmember with your tire well without isolating it somehow, unless you like buzzes and such. Also, the stock tiedowns are not sufficient for holding a tire - take them to the frame (again, rubber/urethane isolation from the body is recommended). -Bill '87 4Runner w/ '96 5VZ-FE, 'Red Chili II' '97 Taco XtraCab 3RZ-FE, 'BlackBean' TLCA # 13257, Rising Sun 4x4 Club Land Use Coordinator "He who stops being better stops being good." -Oliver Cromwell Page 3 of 3 1 2 3 Moderated by  4Crawler, 4x4Wire, kewlynx  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
