i was looking into the exact same thing for my runner, i have been looking at hella 500 lights they are very affordable and have been around forever. those rigid lights look awesome but the pricetag does not

she has a thing against stationwagons, so the crosstrek and outback are out. i dont think that the H6 is worth it, dont get much more power at all. the diesel was just an idea, i have always liked the idea of turbo diesel trucks but have never owned one, i do a little hauling stuff around, and...

if we do a forester she will not be getting a turbo, i work for a subaru dealer and the turbo is nowhere near worth the pricetag.

so my family is in need of a new second car, right now i drive an 08 t4r and my wife drives an 03 kia sportage, the kia has to go..... my wife loves driving my 4runner so the debate is either giving her that and getting something new for me or keeping the 4runner for myself and getting her...

nope, upgrading to 265/70/17, and adding wheel spacers for a wider stance, so that will cause the rubbing. im hoping to fix that with the daystar leveling kit. im just a little leary of what damage the leveling kit can cause down the road

update!! grille is installed back on the truck and looks awesome, purchased a bunch of plasti-dip for my oe wheels i hope to get that done this weekend and than ill take some pics. as for the rest, i have been looking into daystar front leveling kits, it seems that if i do a 2.5 front spacer kit...

swapped out my door lights and dome lights with red leds so it will match the outside color, i'll try to get some pics tonight when it is darker

-ok, grille is getting taken off and given to a friend to sand and spray black on saturday, still debating if i wanna do the rear chrome trim too and if i want to try to paint or just remove the name badges. -ordered red led bulbs for the doors and interior roof lights, to match the outside...

ok, it will actually save me a couple of bucks to go with the 265/70/17 instead of the 265/65/17 so as long as there wont be a rubbing issue i think ill go that route, and i still do want to do the spidertrax spacers.

wont i have rubbing issues with a taller tire and no lift?? im already worried about the wheel spacers causing some rubbing

ok, im dead set on the tires and wheel spacers, it only goes off road during hunting season and when i go to the shooting range so maybe once or twice a month, i think the low wide stance will look good for a mostly street driven truck. im having one of my coworkers black out all of the chrome...

i have had my 08 4runner SR5 for almost 2 years now and im beginning to get a little bored with it, it is bone stock with the 6cyl so its nothing special. im thinking that if i can make it look a little bit rougher i will fall back in love with it again like i did when i bought it. i HAVE to get...

that one looks good and got good reviews but one of the reviewers mentioned it sticking out the back 6-8 inches! thats a bit much does yours stick out that far?

thanks for the info guys! i looked briefly at a curt hitch but hadnt heard of the name so i stayed away from it, i was researching a hidden hitch lastnight that seemed good but i didnt know about the weight distribution bit. maybe ill look more into the curt. any info on good wire harness's?

i am shopping for a hitch. i have a 2008 v6 sr5 i am looking to pull a 4x8 trailer with some basic landscaping equipment (mowers, trimmers, blowers, fuel) on it nothing more. what brand hitch seems to be the easiest install and the best fit? the same goes for the wiring harness, i am hoping for...
