SOLD! Now that my rig is not a daily driver I'm switching to studded snow tires. Got a set of 265/70/R17 tires and rims. Tires have plenty of tread left and are great on everything except glare ice and even then they do OK. The rims are cheap sport editions and I didn't like the silver rims...

Replaced my Xreas after 60k. At my shops recommendation I went with the toytec boss suspension. Love it, wish I had done it sooner, it's better in every way.

:iagree: Hakkapeliitta snow tires are what you need along with proper speed and snow driving technique. No need to be changing air pressures depending on if it's snowing or not. Much easier to do a tire swap in the fall instead of airing down and up depending on road conditions.

I'm confused by the OP. if you wanted to tell us you have THREE houses, just start a thread stating that. No need to state the obvious that Walmart service sucks.

POR= Paint Over Rust. It actually more difficult to use POR on bare metal or new metal. As already mentioned you need to brush off the loose rust but you don't need to get it down to bare metal. I don't use their cleaner/degreaser but I do use the metal prep that is supposed to neutralize the...

It's a 2013 Bronson that I built. Love it, still rides great. May upgrade this winter to wider rims and drop it down to a 1x.

Drove the newly lifted rig to a bike ride.

Not Toyota related but I was visiting a college friend in Michigan whose dad was a big wig at GM and I wasn't allowed to park my VW in the driveway. Understandable with his position, he even admitted VW made a good car. In return I did get to drive the 65 corvette convertible.

Yes, Switch Pro 9100. I like it, easy to install and set up. The app on Android leaves a bit to be desired but hopefully as they sell more of these they can update the app. One thing I didn't consider was how the mounting location would reflect in the window when I look at the side view...

Well I got it to work. Picked up a relay and was able to use the wires that were already run. Now it's time to wire up the accessories. Doing fridge and a couple of power drops in the rear plus the compressor. This project has been a lot of fun but sure took some time and money. As I often...

Update: Looks like I will need to go the relay route. Found this diagram showing how to do it. Doesn't pay to try and skip steps. Now to get a relay and figure our where to put it. In the meantime I at least got the switchpro wired and operational and wiped down the engine bay a bit...

mine came Monday. gas left, tag right works great!

Definitely interested but holding off to see how it fits on the Limited. Trying to decide on a full aluminum bumper as I have a bit of damage on the front corner of the factory set up. I'm assuming these are steel? When you get to V2 let me know the weight, working on suspension upgrade soon...

I put in Weather Tech and Canvas Back for the cargo area right off. The first "true" mod was to ditch the stock horn. Thanks to Titanpat57 http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/59265-new-fiamm-horn-install.html

Got my invoice. Paid and waiting!!
