    looking for backup light mod ideas - i cant see anything when backing up at night

    I did something very similar to what V_Man did. Since I don't have a tire under the vehicle, I opted to put 2 sets of 6" LED's under there.

    parking brake won't release then...

    I had a similar issue. I ended up going by the rear wheel and tugging on the ebrake line going into the rear drum and I heard it "pop" and disengaged the ebrake. I ended up just rebuilding both drum brakes and have not had any issues since. I do believe, if memory serves correct, that one of the...

    Cam Tab Gusset Install?

    I "needed" to replace mine since the tabs were flattened and didn't know it until I took it in for an alignment and told me they could not align it. I ended up bending the tabs back to a 90* angle and using a MIG, just dropped a weld between the tab and the frame. Sprayed some paint to prevent...

    Would like you alls opinion on these wheels

    Bringing this thread back from the dead lol. I just picked up a set of Level 8 Tracker rims for my silver 06 SR5. Still deciding on what tire to put on them, but can't wait to get them mounted! Been debating for a while now on what rim to go with, since there are so many options out there. Just...

    Rhino Rack? (X-Tray)

    If you end up getting that, definitely post up some pics! I have been in the market for a rack but don't want a huge box on the roof, want something a little more low profile without breaking the bank. This one looks great.

    Disappearing front cross member due to rust

    I may have to go this route. I was down there saturday replacing the sway bar bushings and end links and noticed a lot of surface rust. I am one of those perfectionists types and when it comes to repair work, just painting what I can only see grinds my gears haha. But anything is better than...

    Disappearing front cross member due to rust

    haha same here. Just don't have a garage large enough to pull the body off the frame and roll the frame out to do the work.

    Disappearing front cross member due to rust

    How much does having the frame coated typically run? I live in Cincy, my 06 4runner only has 119,000 miles and the frame is already starting to look a bit sketchy. Nothing like posted above, but I would rather be proactive about the situation.

    TPMS Push Button Bypass Switch

    I was wondering the same, then i started thinking he may tap into the pink/blk wire at the TPMS sensor and at the switch take it directly to ground (as opposed to power like you would for lights). Just my thought. But do tell!! :wacko:

    TPMS Push Button Bypass Switch

    ^+1. Why even mess with turning it on/off. Just bypass it all together. Did mine in literally 5 min this past weekend.

    Easy Weekend Mods

    Amazon. Was about $40 for 4 of them. Pretty damn bright too. I ended up welding a bracket to attach both of them too, and since I dont have a spare below, there is plenty of room to work with. Sorry for the crappy phone pic

    Easy Weekend Mods

    Finally de-badged her to get rid of the god awful chrome trim and added two 6" dual row LED bars underneath for this weekends off-road trip. Just a small trip to a buddies land but gives me a reason to install stuff none the less :)

    Yson07SR5 - 07 SR5 Build Thread

    I live down in Anderson. Yea I was never too active in that group. I was more involved some 5 years ago when it was a small group of people. Then most of my friends got rid of theirs and picked up bikes which was great, since we could then all ride together lol.
