Lifts... Bumpers... corner protection (Like the rock rails from the Rubi)...

These are all things that I want to do if I get a Mojave, as I don't like the stock plastic bumper. My concern is weight and what it does to the suspension? That suspension is the reason for the Mojave, so does the weight of all that added steel impact it at all?

I'm not usually a fan of black JTs, but OMG the Mojave black / orange looks unreal.

With the matching dog and collar ... LOL :like:
My dog was not sure she like it but thank you very much, I love it.....Lots of lookers for sure.

Keep in mind the Mojave was a purpose built design. Adding more weight to the front can alter its performance manners.

Those look nice. Is that stock height? I'm in the market and this may have swayed me towards Toyo.
Yup, all stock. Loving them so far. Quiet, way less wandering than the MTs on rutted highways, better ride. Will get to try them offroad this weekend!

This tire is for sure on my short list. (Wish someone made a 37x11.50r17) Do you have pics down the side from the front and/or back?

Saw this post from the fellas over at Rebel. Not sure I would make the same decision in regards to removing the factory suspension (or the 20” wheels) but you can’t argue with the stance. I guess there is at least one take off Mojave suspension out there available for someone. First I’ve seen of a OEM steel bumper/skid plate delete on a Mojave.

Looks great! Any rake in the rear from the lift or does it look pretty even with no weight in back?
It was even when I first installed everything, it looks to have settled a bit. Looks like a very tiny bit of rake now. Might get another .75” rear spacer and stack it. Rides like stock still

The taller hood distorts the perception. Compare the bed to the roof line, or the underside to the curb, and it looks level.
