Took the ol girl camping! She towed this 20 footer surprisingly well! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Guys, Just got tundra brakes installed on my rig - man what a difference. Anyway, for those of you who don't have the time or skill or are a bit of a princess like me, Bret's Auto Care in Lynnwood did the installation for me. I bought all the parts from O'Reilly's and dropped off my rig...

I regret that I didn't take any pictures, but I went down to that spot off Ben Howard Rd. It was quite the party down there as people we're launching tubes in the river. Great little spot, I'll likely go there again. Thanks for the recommendation! -J

Thanks for the ideas guys! I'll let you guys know where I ended up. Really appreciate it. -Jesse

Any of you northwest guys know of any good spots to get your 4runner down on a river bank or close to the shore of the water? I'm looking for a place to cool off during this upcoming heatwave and I'd love to be on the water. Since I don't have a boat I figure I'll get close enough where I can...

I ended up just getting on the list with Andy's automotive. They've always treated me right and seem to know their way around a 4runner. Ironically, when I bought my rig it came with 13 years of service history at Michaels Toyota. Perhaps I should have called them but alas I went with Andy's...

I hate to interrupt the banter, but does anyone recommend a good shop up north to fix a rear pinion seal? I'd also love to have the same place do the tundra big break kit as well. I called Torfab and they can't get me in until the end of August which kind of cramps my camping style. Andy's...

Is the lake still at record lows? I'm hoping its in better shape due to the wet winter.

Figured I'd contribute!

Thanks for the compliments Jay! Unfortunately I don't have a build thread yet, but thankfully it's a pretty simple build so far. Here's the quick specs: - 285/70/17 Goodyear Duratracs on powder coated Tundra/Sequoia rims - Sonoran Steel 1.2 Lift Kit - Shrockworks Front bumper with winch...

Decided to play hookie for the day and go see if I can find some snow. Found some on Tinkham Rd and on our way to French Cabin Creek. Couldn't get to far because the roads were closed for snowmobiles but still fun a day. Btw, Duratracs in the snow kick ass for those of you who are debating tires.

I can't go this round but hit me up on the next round.

Just wanted to say hello to all you local 4runner heads. I've been on this board for a while and just stumbled across this thread. Admittedly I'm not on here that much but I'm glad to see there's quite a few of you guys that go out quite regularly. I was just camping up there at Gallagher...

Here's a couple of pics from a recent trip to Gallagher Head Lake. Wait, I guess they recently changed the name... it's now called Gallaher Head Lake. Anyway, you get the idea. The pics on the rocks are me leveling my rig since I always sleep in the back.

I see this thread is also about 4th gen 4runners... incidentally my whip is a 97. I suspect you can duplicate my setup if you wanted to in a 4th gen. :)
