Spotted a clean Galactic Gray 4th Gen yesterday at Grand and River Road in River Grove. Mild lift, TRD pro wheels on AT's, blacked out rear garnish, and American flag window decal. Anyone on here? I was in the gray stock 4th gen with CB lip antenna. Clean rig!! (No pics unfortunately)

His shop is out in aurora about 5 min off of 88 and 31. Takes him about 45 min to take care of the front. You can call or text him at 630-400-2439 (Gustavo) to set up an appointment. Let him know "Rick" sent you and cost is 65$
Hey I'm a new owner down in far south suburbs.. this post is a few months old but was wondering if this guys shop is still around?

Sighting of expedition build early 4th gen in Chicago/Logan Square

I spotted this very nicely built rig back in late January and have finally made the time to post the pix. Looks like a 2005 (based on the humpback spoiler) on at least 33s (forgot to take a closeup). Also noteworthy are the snorkel, front and rear plate bumpers, and the LED taillight conversion. Got to love the holiday lights around the roof rack! Definitely an unusual sight for an urban environment.

Just bought a 4Runner TRD, living in the city and wondering if there is a club or meet us. I would love to take her out mudding on some nearby trails.

I would maybe hit up Chitown and see if they have any up and coming events.

Moving back to Northern Suburbs; any updates on a good off-roading group in the area?

From La Grange Park. Stock 97 4runner that needs a lot of love. Wondering if anyone in the Chicago/Suburbs knows of a shop that can weld on a new rear diff cover. I have the dreaded rusted diff cover and have made it work with jb weld epoxy but I'd like to get a new diff cover welded on. Here is the link to a new cover at a great price: Dorman(R) 926-993 - OE Solutions™ Differential Cover
Anybody with a midwest/northeast/northwest 3rd gen should take a look at your diff cover. My problem is just finding a welder to do it.

I'll second the shop request -- just bought a 4th gen living downtwn. I know I'll have some work in the future and would love to know a good 4x4 shop. I'm figuring there's gotta be some in the suburbs but would love a recommendation. The Toyota dealership downtown isn't exactly the ideal spot to take care of everything I'd like done haha
