    So I'll update what I've been up to with mine this week... Sunday - Remove front bumper and install Morimoto Xb Headlights - HUUUUGE improvement... Monday - slapped up some patches, installed low profile ditch light brackets Tuesday - installed ditch lights, wiring for ditch lights, realized...

    FS: 2004 Limited V6 4WD - Line-X'd, Lifted, Ridge Grapplers - $10.5K, Dallas, TX

    It's come time to part with my 2004 Limited 4Runner 4x4 V6. It's sitting right at 209k miles but as anyone here can tell you, that's just broken in for these trucks. This truck has a clean Carfax and I believe I’m the 2nd (possibly 3rd) owner. It would make someone a great hunting rig or be a...

    Highest Mileage 4th Gen?

    My 2004 is sitting at 170k+ and running strong...so glad I bought this vehicle! I've kept it longer than anything else I've ever owned.

    Line-X(ing) my '04...Opinions Wanted

    So I've found a local shop that's going to Line-X my '04 for a very reasonable price (we agreed it's not going to be a SEMA show truck and therefore won't require that same level of detail - i.e. complete trim removal, door jambs and underhood sprayed). I'm basically doing it because my paint...

    Have I lost my mind?

    Holy Old Thread Revival Batman!!! Update....I'm currently removing the PD. No major complaints about it but it's time for a color change and I want a tougher finish so I don't have to worry about tearing a whole in it on trails. For a street only 4R the PD would be great. But if your 4R sees...

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    I'm taking it to be Speedlined (like Line-X) soon. Gotta take the dip off to apply that:) Now to just pick a color...I'm leaning toward Galactic Gray...thoughts?

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    I'm removing the Plasti-Dip paint job today *gasp* But this begs the question - what's next?

    Have I lost my mind?

    Holding up nicely! A few little rockchips up front, but that's to be expected with any finish. The nice part - I just dabbed a drop on each spot and it kinda melts back into itself and covers the paint again... I'm quite happy thus far...and due to the color choice - it never looks dirty (or...

    TrekLights LED Light Bar Group Buy

    My lights arrived last week. However, my motherboard on my 4-1/2 year old PC took a dump so I was without a computer (and in the process of building a whole new machine) so I didn't get a chance to post. I have not had a chance to test the lights and probably won't for at least a week. I'll...

    TrekLights LED Light Bar Group Buy

    UPDATE: So I've had tracking info since 5/2 (Thursday) and when I check the status - it still only says "Electronic Shipping Info Received".... That usually indicates that the label has been created but the package has not yet been handed over to USPS. It COULD be a glitch or it could be yet...

    TrekLights LED Light Bar Group Buy

    I got my tracking # yesterday but the package has not been updated since the electronic shipping info was received. I will say that I wondered if I was ever going to get my lights (they're still not technically here) - or - if they never showed up - my money back. However, because of one of my...

    TrekLights LED Light Bar Group Buy

    I'm in the same boat. Still no tracking # for me and I had three group buy lights and two custom lights coming my way (not cheap). Troy - if you're reading this please get on this and show the same high level of customer service you did when you were taking my order and walking me through which...
