What is the ride like compared to stock with that new spring/shock combo? I can’t decide between a bilstein setup or an OME Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If this bit of info helps, FJ 4WD springs will yield more lift than the RWD ones. I can’t remember exactly how much - 1/2” maybe? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, all worked out ok. The guy is actually paying me to build them, so I'm coming out on top. Side steps are done, rear bumper, rack, and ladder are all in the works.

Sorry for the late response. Have lived here for five years doing mission and development work. Returning to the US next month, and am actually looking for a 4Runner. Hoping to get into a 5th gen.

Hi folks, Looking for a vendor that has a rear bumper and a set of sliders in stock and ready to ship. The first set I wanted to order was going to take 4-6 weeks to build. The "rush" is because I have a container sitting in Boston ready to be closed and shipped to me in Uganda. I want to get...

Thanks for the offer and tip. Got her sorted, so far the bypass kit is working great. What an insane call by Toyota not to do a warranty or recall fix on this.

I have full BOSS kit on it's way from ToyTec, including new UCAs. 85% of our driving is on very rough roads, so I plan on replacing as much of the suspension as I can while I have everything disassembled. Will probably rebuild the front and rear hubs while I'm installing all new brake parts...

I've read so many build threads in the last month I can't remember where this was... Someone had posted a detailed list of Toyota part numbers for a suspension overhaul. Tie rods, bushings, the works. Who was it?

Hi folks, I have a close friend in Dallas who is throwing a P1445, dealer is quoting her around $4,000 to repair. With that high of an estimate I'm assuming they are aiming to replace more than just the pump. I don't intend to throw blame, but I can't help but wonder if they "saw her coming"...

This was a long time ago, even before I moved to Uganda. Truck is long gone, but I'll try to help. Quite possibly the easiest mod I did. Oznium has LED strips that are "side emitting". I bought two strips, can't remember the lengths. Remove the tail lights, stick them on the sides, and tap into...

You should mail the front one to me since I had to cut mine off to service the motor.

How many of you lousy 4runner owners like to gather for good food and drinks? Not sure how many of you are in the Southwest Virginia / Northeast Tennessee area around Bristol, but I wouldn't mind meeting some people from the forum. Think we could get a cookout style event planned? I'm all for...

Shoot me a total with shipping to 24210. If it isn't too much, I'll likely take them.

Replace all four while you are under there.

One of the nicest 4runners on this site. Looks like the Hannibal rack I used to have on my Land Rover. LOVE low-profile racks.
