Also a simple tip on masking: use index cards or something similar to create a ring around the rim by wedging them in betweeen the rim and the tire. I think it's been mentioned before, just thought i'd throw that out there

I plasti-dipped my stock rims about a year ago, still holding up strong. No chipping, no peeling, nothing. I even pressure wash the crap out of them. The key is using a whole can on each wheel so that it's thick enough. On my work comp. so no pics, sorry.

bump anybody? Ive searched and searched!

Did my rims about 8 months ago and they are holding up perfectly. Even can pressure wash them close-up and no peeling. I used almost an entire can on each wheel :D sorry no pics at the moment. Little tip, use index cards to mask off the tire, just wedge them in the lip of the rim

I should mention mine is the CA model, so how do I know which sensor is bad? The downstream one has oil and stuff on the wiring harnesses while the front one is clean. But from what I've read, it is usually the front one that goes bad. NEED TO KNOW ASAP so I can get it smogged and registered...

Look further down, those codes are Toyota specific, meaning they are the same as P0XXX P1130 Air-Fuel Sensor Circuit Range/Performance P1135 Air-Fuel Sensor Heater Circuit Response Malfunction My 4runner is throwing these 2 codes, and runs fine. I need to get is smogged though so here is...

Pretty sure it's not the starter. Nothing happens when I turn the key. The clicking is happening when it's just sitting there. I'm hoping its simply a bad battery. I know its past due but Ive never had a problem til now. Its weird how it randomly started clicking though. Hooked a charger up to...

I'm at work right now and I walked over to my truck (2000 4runner V6) and I hear this clicking nooise coming from under the hood. Mind you I just parked it 4 hours ago nothing was wrong. Hadn't touched it since. I traced the noise to the fuse box, it just sounds like a solenoid clicking on and...

bump :D

Here are a few pics.

Bump for an old thread I have the same exact question as OP. Looking at the Bilstein 5100s

Gnarly 4runner. If I ever win the lottery I'm dropping mine off at your shop and saying "make mine like that". Mine is a 2wd also So Gay

I had a squeak that sounded really similar to what your describing. Turned out to be (almost positive) my driveshaft rubbing on the tail housing. It got worse with weight in the back. I lived with it for a while and I think it just ended up wearing away enough. No problems since, knock on wood.

Ikeep hearing that supposedly this should peel right off, has anyone actually tested that theory? (giving my pointer finger a break lol)
