I possibly agree on this one I had a seized rear caliper and messed with driving and could smell it. Put a hand on all your wheels right after driving on the highway if any one is more hot than the others possibly a caliper issue. 4th gen rear calipers are notorious for seizing, I replaced mine...

Gahdamn!! Im getting like 12-13mpgs maybe 14-15 all highway. Is yours 2wd? stock tire size? would love to know, very frustrated with my mileage and I definitely don't have a "heavy foot" lol.

This build thread is awesome! So cool to see all your camping trip photos, the 4runner looks so good.

Holy crap this thing looks MEAN! Thanks for all your updates on your build thread, keep em coming!

Thanks for the fantastic write-up and in-depth info! I really want to do this mod, adding this thread to my to do list.

Pre 4Runner My 4runner is an 03 V8 that I am absolutely in love with, unfortunately I live in America and consumerism is real... My 4runner is a champagne SR5 and I desperately want an 07-09 white sport edition but, alas, the grass is always greener. In terms of basic functionality there is...
