    Rear bumper build finally done!

    Thanks, when designing the ladder I tried to follow the contour both from the rear and the side view. Glad you like it!

    Rear bumper build finally done!

    Thanks! It took quite a bit of work!. Yeah that's actually from a 2nd gen 4runner from the first 2 years when they had the rear tire carrier!

    Rear bumper build finally done!

    Hey guys, I don't post here too often but I thought I would share my rear bumper that I just finished building. It took me around 2-3 months and a lot of that time was spent creating a 3D model of the bumper before I built the real deal. Unfortunately because some of my measurements of my...

    Vehicle shudder around 6-700rpm

    It's a 4x4 auto trans with 200k. It's definitely more of a shudder than a clunk.If I maintain light pressure on the brake and keep it in that rpm range it will continue to shudder for as long as I do it. Not sure if its misfire or what. Not getting any codes that would suggest that though..

    Vehicle shudder around 6-700rpm

    About a month ago I noticed when I would be at a stop, take my foot off the brake and start to roll forward that the vehicle would shudder some. This also happens when slowing down to come to a stop but it only happens at very low idle speed, around 600-700rpm. Once I get past that there is no...

    Bad wheel bearing/hub??

    I checked that about a month ago when doing tie rod replacements but I will check again tomorrow. I'm guessing the bearing could still need replacement even if there is not 6-12 play? Would I have to press out old and press in new bearings or is it a hub that i can unbolt and bolt in a whole new...

    Bad wheel bearing/hub??

    info: 1998 4runner SR5 190,000miles. About 2 weeks ago I started noticing a cyclic squeak coming from my front right wheel and it has started to get rather annoying and also slightly concerned. It increases as my rpms increase and doesn't seem to change when I brake. I lifted the front end and...

    Custom Trail Logo

    Yeah I remember seeing that one before, but for some reason I really don't care for the "R" in that logo.

    Custom Trail Logo

    Just thought I'd share this. My dad bought a 2011 Trail 4Runner and was a little bummed they didn't have a logo on the pillar like SR5 or LIMITED. I was kinda surprised they didn't come with any. So I sat down and designed these because neither one of us really care for the the ones we had seen...

    K&N cold air intake going offroad?

    I never would have paid full freight for a K&N CAI but I happened find one used for $20 bucks and figured I couldn't pass it up. I'm a little concerned about installing it because I do some offroading. Nothing crazy and only a a few times a month, but I'm not sure if water/dust will become a...
