    BXBuilt lead times in 2021

    I recently got the DIY kit in the mail that I purchased with their 30% off deal a couple months back. I think I may have jumped the gun though because it seems waaaaay over my head lol. Thinking I might buy a couple aftermarket headlights to do it on since my 4R is my daily driver and I can just...

    Horrible creaking on front right suspension

    I know this is a recently revived thread, but fwiw I had a similar issue recently and it ended up being my sway bar bushings Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How many 3rd Gen 2wd's do we have lifted?

    Agreed. I constantly stalk his IG and ask questions. He’s the reason I went with the T1 springs recently. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Alternator…maybe?

    Thanks for all of the replies! I don’t have a multimeter but I do have AAA so I’ll give them a ring after work and have them come check the battery first. I’ll need them either way because if it ain’t that, they’ll be towin’ me lol. Appreciate you all! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Alternator…maybe?

    Hey y’all, sorry for such a lame first thread topic but after using the search tool as best I can, I’m still not any closer to an answer. I’ve got a 2000 Limited with a 6 month old battery. Yesterday morning, all was well. Later in the day I go to run some errands and the engine turns over a...

    Timmy the Toolman Party - August 7th

    I’m just up here in Sonoma Co.! Are noobs with no mechanical know-how welcome or would I be flogged upon arrival? Either way, totally worth it [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Addicted Offroad Bumper Status

    Just to add my unrequested and generic 2 cents, I don’t think patience has much to do with it in a case like this. If more small business owners understood that reliable communication is just as important as quality of product, more would make it. My other “hobby” is collecting custom knives...

    Is 195K too many miles for a dependable 4Runner

    same here. I grew up and live here in Sonoma County. Got my condo in 2012 for $110k. The one two doors down for me recently sold for $340k. No way I’d be able to afford living out here unless I had. I’m not exactly “ballin’”. Hell, I paint houses for a living and have a 21 year old 4Runner as my...

    How much did you pay for your 3rd gen?

    In 2017 I paid $3500 for my 2000 Limited w/locker and 180k miles on it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Daily drive with 35’s?

    Ah ok, I got ya. Thanks for taking the time to respond. I’m running 265’s and have been since I got my 2000 about 4 years ago. Of course lurking on this forum has caused me to consider upgrades and whatnot and for a while I was set on going to 33’s until I read about the sluggishness with stock...

    Daily drive with 35’s?

    Not to get off-topic, but wouldn’t another issue be having stock gearing? I ask as an honest question because I had thought about going from 265’s to 285’s and one of the points I saw someone make on here was just how much more sluggish things would be if I only upgraded the tires. Sent from...

    How many miles on your 4runner?

    I’m at 239k as of right now. Recently replaced the transmission and rear diff but other than that it’s been extremely minor stuff over the years. I sure hope she appreciates the near-7 grand I put into her instead of getting something new lol. Hopefully the next money I throw at it will be for...
