how long does it take you to do the swap and do you do the center console too?

hey guys! i'm looking for some advice/thoughts here. i have an 04 v6 limited that as the title says blew the driver side head gasket. i'm thinking about doing the other side while its apart. the shop said they could the other side for $250 on top of what they are charging me for the side...

on a side note, to you guys that are running the stt's...what kind of mileage do you expect to get out of these tires? and did they affect your fuel mileage at all? thanks! -jcc4

right on! thank you guys! appreciate the help!

hey guys! i've seen them around on some of your rides in different pictures and have done some searches with little to no results. so my question is, how can a guy get his hands on a couple of TR4.ORG stickers for his 4runner? thanks -jcc4

jaybird93000! thanks for the leg work man! i feel like i can generally speak for all of us and say a collective thank you!

my understanding is that FJ rims are a direct fit to your 4runner. i've been passively looking for a set myself and haven't came arcross anything that says they won't fit. good luck!

my understanding is that it will fit but it won't be a direct fitment. there will be some modification. 07-09 is a direct swap though. for all things fj swaps i would pm ARK SWAMP RIDER. that guy knows all there is to know about that topic. good luck though!

i am getting between 275-350ish depending on what type of driving I'm' doing. i have the fj/bilstien setup with 265/75/17 toyo mts. they are 10 ply tires with 3 ply sidewalls so they are pretty heavy....i'm going to do the switch to all synthetic gear oil and an electric fan swap here in the...

i had creamers automotive in olympia do mine! super good guy, jon is the owner and i couldn't ask for better service. i'm in the mill creek area and am planning on going back for all my maintenance. they are actually in tumwater but just google them and it has the phone number to the shop and...

the kenwood that is stated above a an amazing unit. i almost went with it, but i ended up going with the JVC KW-NT50HDT. it was a little less and seemed to work better with my iPhone. at the end of the day though it boils down to how much you want to spend, what options you feel you can't do...

we bought our 04 limited for 20k about a year ago. there is a up scale used care lot by the costco in woodinville that brings in a lot of used 4th gen 4runners and they seem to be pretty straight shooters....i drove a lot of there rigs before we picked up ours. anyways, good luck with your search!

chaz-thank you for the links man! very much appreciated!

thanks for the reply! ya i was thinking just straight electric fans with a sensor from the engine temp so that they would kick on when needed and kick off when not. thats kinda where i'm at with it too in that the factory system works really well but if i could swap it out and gain some fuel...

i've bene kicking around the idea of swapping out the factory clutch fan with an electric one...thoughts on this? does it or would it provide an benefits? anyways thoughts are always welcome!
