    trip (miles left) meter for v8 4wd er's

    I think you broke her cherry and she's running a little easier now- a little more laid back. Really though, the most I have ever posted on my computer was 321 miles and I have just broken 10K mark. How quick do the miles drop from your new high down to where the old high mark used to be? What...

    37 #$%&* dollars for an oil change?!

    Yeah thanks, but no thanks. Thats the last time I'll have the dealership change my oil, plus the 2 hour wait. Time to get out the 2 ton jack and filter wrench (ah- just like my first car in high school). How do you reset the maint. light on the 06 SR5, becasue according to the manual- that...

    Go Rhino Brush Guard

    Scotty, Its not that we are not nice, I just don't think anyone has the instructions. Have you tried to contact the company? Is this a brand new gaurd, or second-hand? Get a hold of them- I'll bet you can ring em' lose of those directions. Say hello to Denver- I'm a Littleton native.

    Improving the ride on 3rd gen

    I had the bars put on yesterday. Firestone charged me 140.00 for the install, which I thought was pretty good. Right off the bat you can tell a difference. Now this isnt jaw-dropping, but roll and pitch are considerably reduced around corners and wouldnt you know it, in front of the mall...

    Improving the ride on 3rd gen

    I actually just had a set of Bils put on my 01 and have the sway bars sitting in the garage, with an appointment to have them put on next week. I didnt really notice a stiffening of the ride with these shocks like many claim may happen BUT, 4Runners are just rough riders. I suggest to improve...

    Windy Doors!

    Do you guys get a small draft from the door (where the window and lock tabs are located) when your driving? I can really feel it on cold days. Thank God its not lower than that if you get my drift... BTW- My wife complains of the same problem when she is riding shotgun. Seals?

    Road Handling question?

    Have you talked to anyone or experienced one of these kits yourself? I didnt even know they exsisted.

    Road Handling question?

    Yes! Now I'm really motivated to get the bars.

    Road Handling question?

    Mine tends to bounce all over when I hit a series of smaller bumps. I just had new Bilstein shocks installed and AT Revos and it still does this. I think thats just the way they are. Check this out though: Bad weather (snow, rain, etc.), she rides as smooth as can be. 4Runners in my opinion...

    A little unsettling body roll

    Thanks Lee, Know who makes a sway bar? Also, I know you added new springs (nice BTW) and although you got the 1" lift, regardless- did the new springs improve roll/pitch?

    A little unsettling body roll

    Some crazy pulled out in front of me today. I was going about 50mph and had to quickly get pull over to the right to keep from hitting her. My 4R. began to wobble a bit- like a rolling motion from side to side. I was careful not to over-correct because I thought to myself, "I would rather hit...

    Car Rack Drama!

    I still get a little freaked out going under bridges. I know that most are high enough, but still... I even slow down sometimes. Like thats going to make any difference!

    Car Rack Drama!

    Alright, My wife pulls into our carport with the bike on top. I had an aftermarket Yakima rack with a decent bike tray attached. I ran out of the house as fast as I could but not in time. I knew when she came home that she would run it under--it was just one of those feelings. It was amazing...
