    New Magnuson TVS1320 Available for 3rd Gens

    I sure do. The fleet gas at the work is 87 and the price is right $0.00/gallon. When I fill at a gas station I put 91 in it. But that is pretty rare-maybe every 10th tank or so. I have a truck allowance and free gas so it makes the low octane "worth it" to run. 4runner is 90% work driving- the...

    New Magnuson TVS1320 Available for 3rd Gens

    FWIW-My experiences with the gen 2 (black m62) over the years. Long post, but maybe good info for some on the fence. I drive 53 miles each way to work on windy rural roads with lots of accel/decel cycles, and I drive hard. Once at work I drive around a mine site all day on dirt, sand and mud...

    Anyone get much past 300k on a 3rd gen 4runner?

    My 97 had between 380-390k when it was wrecked. Still running great, and I had thrown a supercharger, 2.1 pulley and 7th injector on it at around 265k. I drive my stuff hard, too. Keep up on the basics and the big stuff lasts really well. 97 tacoma had a bad head gasket and rod knock when I got...

    255 85 r16 q&a

    Yea, load range D is all there is. I wonder if treadwright would make a run of 255’s from our used ones. At least the sidewalks would be broken in and softer. Still would be heavy though.

    255 85 r16 q&a

    255/85r16 DC extreme country’s. ~3” lift all around, maybe more like 3.75” in back. All in the suspension, no body lift. Did some firewall smacks for the front wheel wells, but nothing crazy. Had spacers initially to clear the stock upper control arms. Eventually put SPC uppers on and removed...

    Headroom???

    I believe they were the sport seats? They had a dial/knob you could rotate to adjust the lumbar section in and out if that helps ID which seat version.

    Headroom???

    My cloth seated 97 had noticeably more headroom than my 99 with power leather. Both have sunroofs. I'm 6'4" and in the leather my head hits the sunroof "edge" quite a bit if I sit upright/don't slouch a bit in the seat. That is with the seat base adjustment all the way down and back. Seat back...

    What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

    Swapped the E-locker rear in. Got everything buttoned up just gotta bleed the brakes after work tomorrow. It’s got 4.30’s and fresh seals, bearings and brakes. Should be maintenance free until I get around to gear to 4.88’s. Then it’s time for the Fox’s up front. I’m in an essential job so I’m...

    Help me remember (TRD decal ?)

    Yea. Could find either that design and no reflective option, or reflective vinyl and vastly different styles that I don’t like as much. I may have to settle?

    255 85 r16 q&a

    I love this size. Great ground clearance without all the rub problems. I’ve had DC extreme country’s on for several years now. They do really well in general-hook up great, no flats (E load range). They do get kinda loud after some mileage, and tend to follow the ruts in the road etc, but not...
