    Skid Plate Discussion

    If you’re not doing any serious off-roading I wouldn’t spend the money on aftermarket skid plates. They’re expensive, heavy, and make any maintenance tougher. I have to use a flor jack to remove and install the middle one just to change the oil. I’ve used my Savage skids quite a bit, they’ve...

    Tires: Big is Badder right???

    Check out the Pro Comp Xtreme MT2 in 285/75/16. I’ve got 5 days on them of heavy off-roading/crawling and can’t say enough good things about them. Our terrain here has similarities to yours. Coming from the Cooper STT Pro I cant believe how good these work in sand and rocky hard pack desert...

    TRD/Bistein question w/ pics

    All wrong info above! No need to do anything but rotate the shock. All the top bolts are equal distance apart and can be installed/clocked in any way you want to get the spring in the correct position. Once the top is bolted in put a screwdriver through the bottom eyelet and rotate to fit in the...

    I made some rear bump stops. what do you think?

    I’m running 890s and tried it with the cones first. Same thing as you, I wanted a little less lift so took them out and noticed a much better ride at the bottom of the travel. More progressive stop when bottoming out

    Does it really make all the difference ?

    I couldn’t agree more. OEM will be the best ride for what you are using your rig for. Unless you spend big money for King, Icon, or fox the ride is very harsh with most aftermarket shocks. I’ve tried a few different setups including 5100s for tundra and 4Runner and both were the worst performing...

    -----Lower Ball Joint- Uniball Conversion-----

    LCA and LBJs are 2 different things. Nobody has LCA failures. Statistically speaking, very few people have LBJ failures. I was simply stating that this guy is making a pretty good looking product for a decent price, no need to redesign the whole control arm.

    What’s a good way to get more clearance on the front bumper?

    The lower portion is plastic and really easy to trim with a Dremel, die grinder, or even a serrated knife.

    New OME rear 3rd Gen spring design/ numbers?

    Wait, the plot thickens. When I searched 2890 on their site both springs come up but they list the 890 for the Prado and 2890 for the 4Runner. Pictures are different but maybe it’s the same spring which gives a different lift depending on the vehicle.

    New OME rear 3rd Gen spring design/ numbers?

    I just checked the Bilsteinlifts.com website and I only see the 890 offered for 3” lift. Maybe I had it filtered too much. I did notice that they list the other sprinting’s with a 2 in front but list the 890 without it. I’ve got the 2890 springs that I got about a year ago and they’re a 3” lift...
