    What did you do with your classic T4R today?

    My new to me 88' had a roached W56. While tearing into it, everything was roached, so I've been replacing and cleaning everything. While I was under it I figured might as well throw in a double and triple shifters lol. I feel like an old man. In the past I would of had this $hit done in two...

    I'm supposed to be buying this one from my buddy. Receptionist owned it at a body shop in Santa Rosa Ca. Never been in 4wd, no rust original paint. Rebuilt head about 5 years ago, 249k. 88' I think she bought it in 91' from a Toyota Dealer. My buddy bought it to turn into a crawler, but decided...

    5th Gen Marker Lights in Grill

    I didn't really see a good write up on this, so I went through it on my own, so I'll post it here. First off don't ever use a wire T-Tap on a 40k vehicle, there are always ways around it. Second, I never fuse tap into the under hood fuse box. Toyota's are known for electrical gremlins, so I try...

    Alignment question?

    I had a similar issue after I lifted my 16 Tacoma. First time they didn't tighten the LCA bolts properly and they rotated out of position. Second time they adjusted the toe improperly, even though the sheet showed it being in spec. Either that or I smashed into a curb and didn't remember. Did...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    I've been there. What I did was pick up an outdoor rug from Home Depot. I think it was nylon or something. Worked great until my welder set it on fire.

    So the 4runner fails headlight tests with a "poor" rating

    Yeah not impressed with my 16's headlights. I'm getting ready to pull apart my 16' Taco's headlights and install RX350 Projectors and bizenon HID's. If it goes well, I'll research doing it to the Runner. There is a good write up on TW.

    5th gen used pricing strangeness

    Not sure I got a smoking deal, but I picked up a 16' SR5 with 19k miles for $33.1K. It was a fleet vehicle, but was 100% spotless inside and out, top and bottom. My only criteria was MGM, 4x4, 3rd Row and Navigation. Couldn't even find a new one locally at the time, then I spotted one at my...

    For those considering seat covers

    Yeah, I'm looking into Clazzio's for the T4R, TW seems to love them, and you can customize them. On my 16' Taco I went with Coverkings canvas like material. They look pretty baggy, but protect the seats really well.

    5th Gen 4Runner Lift Buyers Guide

    Anyone running 2nd gen Tacoma 5100's with OME 885's. Probably should do some more research, but mine might be coming off my 3rd Gen Tacoma and they might need a new home...

    Installed: Rola low-profile mounts on 5th Gen

    b407driver do you know if that rack will fit inside of the factory rails. If so I might build some custom brackets so that the basket can be mounted as low as possible. Your setup looks clean, thanks for posting.

    BE CAREFUL if you install wheel spacers

    Hand Torqued to 85lbs, and checked every time I rotate tires. I haven't had any issues on my 16' Tacoma. Just took them off when I installed Ray-10's. I've run many wheels spacers in the past, I normally stay away from the low quality stuff. Spridertrax or Bora for me.
