Please add me to the list. Thanks.

I've been considering these same headlights... how have they been holding up? Any issues with leaks/condensation or issues with the HID's?

I don't have a video but I did my front brakes not too long ago. I thought my caliper was frozen and was about to get some reman calipers - only 1 piston was frozen when I tried to compress with a c-clamp. As I was going through my tool box, I saw my ball joint separator. I put it on the frozen...

Considering the same tires myself... this site has the trimming that is needed: Toyota 4Runner Wheel Spacers

Are you guys able to fit a 285/70 in the spare tire location? I've read some have made it fit and others have not... also read the V8 (which I have) has a different hitch than the V6 and has a little more room?

Read through a bunch of Google search results and came across this site with some good info and pics for moving the fender liner and trimming the front bumper. Wanted to share with others as I found it helpful... Toyota 4Runner Wheel Spacers

Have a few more things I want to do before I post pics :) Tires and plasti-dip the wheels...

How do you move the liners forward and the body mount chop? UCA's are next on the list... let the stock upper ball joints leak so I "have" to fix them :D Damn... I may have to consider the Duratrac 265/70/r17s instead - not sure the 1" in overall tire diameter and a bit more width is worth it.

Hi All, Just finished installing a Toytec Boss 3" kit on my '06 T4R SR5 (V8) and 1.25" spidertrax spacers. Currently have 265/65/17s on stock rims (17X7.5) and thinking of going with Duratrac 285/70/17s. Have done a lot of reading and it seems like the Duratracs will fit with this setup but...

Yeah, was thinking the same but wanted to make a temporary fix until I get replace the cv axle... Got the front coilovers on... thanks for all the suggestions. Rear shocks were a ***** to get off... and I thought the front was a pain.

Thanks for all the suggestions... going to give them a try. I also noticed the inner CV boot on the drivers side is torn - almost seems as if it was defective to begin with since its such a clean split (pics below). Any suggestions on a temporary repair until I can get to doing a permanent fix?

Hi All, In the process of installing a Toytec Boss and having problems installing the front coilovers. I have the coilover in the shock tower and 3 bolts are finger tight but can't get the lower shock bolt through - I need about an inch more. I've read some tips for the 3rd gen but not sure if...

Thanks for all the feedback and experiences... much appreciated!

Hi, I have to replace the passenger side view mirror on my 2006 4Runner - the entire assembly, not the mirror. I can purchase an OEM Toyota side view mirror assembly for $190 or a CIPA OE direct replacement for about half the cost... Does anyone have experience with the CIPA OE side view...

Just an FYI - I installed an Eclipse AVN-6600 into my 06 T4R (non-JBL). It was also direct plug and play and no connector needed for the steering wheel controls. Hardest thing to do was locate the speed and reverse wires for the NAV... Only aftermarket item needed was the mounting kit because...
