    Lower price shock options?

    My 03 xreas are leaking. Also noticed jarring ride. Believe time to finally replace after 180000 miles. I see everyone loves the bilsteins but if I'm only likely to have 4runner for another year or two, should i bother spending the money on bilstein or decent lower cost option? Is daily...

    suspension: when to replace?

    My 03 4runner has about 160k miles. Never replaced shocks. Wondering if overdue. Not sure there is issue now, though abnormal may now be normal. Do notice some vibe/shudder from 35mph+. Suspension or drive train issue? Reading comments elsewhere about shocks/struts (not 4runner) only being...

    anyone amplifying front doors only?

    With factory hu, not expecting great sound. Would be nice to have EQ or processor to clean it up. For the price I could just about have new HU with built in EQ. Anything would be better than what I have now (jbl). Figured power up front for now. Eventually pick up additional items to finish...
