    FS: OME 861 Coils Grand Junction, CO

    A set of OME 861 Coils. These can be used as front springs for a Toyota 80 series land cruiser or lift springs for a 3rd gen 4Runner. Check your application first. They have 7500 miles on them and were previously installed as lift springs on a 4Runner. I am lowering the truck down a bit and...

    installing B&M trans cooler - has anyone used the plastic zip ties that come with it?

    Apologize for the delay, hopefully these images help as I happen to have the grill off right now. The cooler is mounted via three bolts and has been rock steady for the years it has been mounted so far.

    King Coilover Weight - Is 600lbs Enough?

    Awesome enjoy the course. I know those off road courses book up fast. But definitely keep me in mind, I typically head out with guys from Tacomaworld, but would be sweet to be around another 3rd gen. I haven't ever been up in that area to find trails. From what I see though, the trails you can...

    King Coilover Weight - Is 600lbs Enough?

    I have the 600lb coils on my Kings and I think you'll want to change your rear springs. I am running OME 861 coils in the rear, and didn't touch the preload on the kings out of the box. A set of LC coils would pair well with the Kings setup out of the box. If you need another 4Runner to join in...

    16410-YZZAJ Genuine Toyota Radiator $135 on Amazon today

    That linked one is a Denso. It ships in a Toyota/Lexus box and does have the right part number for the current OEM Radiator. But as seen in the above picture it is not exactly the same as the one that I have out of my '96.

    16410-YZZAJ Genuine Toyota Radiator $135 on Amazon today

    Anybody that installed this radiator have a steel front bumper? My shrockworks bumper runs its mounting plates along the inside for the frame rails. The Original OEM radiator fit fine. But this one appears to be larger and will not fit between the frame rails. I'm afraid to order another in...

    FS: Lexus LX450 Coils- South NJ $80

    I have a set of OEM LX450 Front coils. As shown in the pictures can confirm their application. I have put about 4k on these coils and purchased them from their original owner with about 100k on them. If you want, these coils would clean up perfectly, I just did not want to tamper with their...

    October Camping Trip, The Cove #6

    I watched some of the videos of the trails, seems pretty muddy. What else do the trails offer? Do you split up in groups by difficulty? Never been on trails in VA.

    Help with air-conditioning squeal

    Being that the squeal is intermittent leans towards the belt slipping when the compressor cycles. That puts a load on the belt causing it to slip a bit before it catches again. A pulley would squeal all the time even when the AC is off as it is always spinning with the engine.

    Gas Tank Skidplate meets Driveshaft

    I run stock 80 series shocks on mine and it contacted the skid. I took a hammer to my skid and pounded the areas back for extra clearance.

    Help with air-conditioning squeal

    I couldn't get a good impression of the noise from the video. Is the squeal coming from outside the truck or inside the cab. My blower squealed every once in awhile. If it is outside, like others I would start by checking the belt tension.

    Dirtbike250x's Build Thread

    Next up the LED Light bar. This was a similar task for the wiring and reusing the plug. Also with the Light Bar it gave me the option to use a track system for foot mounts allowing me to use the pre drilled holes in my bumper. And it is that easy two bolts and plugs right in! And a...

    Dirtbike250x's Build Thread

    Next up was a lighting upgrade... The PIAA lights I had been running on the truck were nothing but problems for me. I do not know if I got a bad set or they were simply bad build quality back when I got them. Anyway, it was time to modernize the look and brightness of the truck and go the LED...

    Dirtbike250x's Build Thread

    Once I could confirm fitment behind my wheels, all that was left was to bleed the system. Overall I am happy with the outcome, is it night and day difference? No..But it is enough to feel more confident in my braking power and heat dissipation, a big deal as the truck gets heavier and finds...
