Agreed my advice to anyone deciding to replace with energy suspension bushings is only do it if you have an EXTREME need or off road set up. The standard bushings are easier and work just fine. I'd recommend going with the easier option.

Lame I was hoping there may be a number stamp on them somewhere. The shocks have a model number, which made it easy to figure out.

If you replace the LCA bushings with factory rubber bushing it will take much less time than the energy poly bushings. I did standard bushings on my old 4runner and it took a few hours of really messing with it before I found the "best" method. After I figured out the technique the other side...

You can feel metal rattling around? In the steering? I'd double check everything was reinstalled correctly. Look for "wet" rubber on the inner tie rod bellows, this can indicate a leaking rack, you can also put a pinhole puncture in the bottom of the bellows and see if fluid comes out. If its...

I recently bought another 4runner. This one has an Old Man Emu suspension setup on it currently. The front sits lower than the rear and I'd like to even it out. In addition the front drops quite a bit when braking indicating to me that may it is too weak of a coil for the front and ARB bumper...

Hey guys, I recently sold my 1997 4runner for a 1996 with goodies. It currently has a Senoran Steel rear bumper. I'm contemplating a tire carrier. I don't like mounting it on the roof or inside the truck as I need to space for gear and family. And a fully treaded 285/75/16 or upgraded 35" tire...

Finally... Snow!

Hey guys when I bought my 1997 4runner sr5 I am sure my rear wiper functioned in every setting; off, intermittent, and continuous. For some reason now the intermittent stopped working. The continuous works great, the window goes up and down, the fluid sprays. but when I turn the switch to...

Not sure why the last image turned sideways.

Day off spent splashing in some puddles made by this weeks heavy downpour.

Love the HE>i sticker, I've got one but it at the top of the back window. So I can roll it down most the way, yet still have it showing.

Thanks I'll give that a shot, it's a lot cheaper than having the transmission serviced.

I have a 97 3.4 automatic 4wd. It has a random shudder that most often spread at 45-60 mph. It had become more frequent lately. I drained my transmission fluid and replaced it with withclean fluid. I have found that when I turn off the overdrive the shudder doesn't happen. I'm curious if this...
