Haha, ok ok. So I went with a set of FX-R projectors, Morimoto ballasts (I was sold the old DSP ones, and Lightwerkz gave me the SS ballasts), and Morimoto 3Five bulbs. The total cost of the retrofit was $615. Lightwerkz charged me around $100 to clean up the issues I had (fix the ground, clean...

Great to hear. I'm glad he has a good reputation on some other forums

I'm am so happy I found Lightwerkz. I have a 98 4Runner and wanted to do a retrofit. I did a quick search online for "Brooklyn HID Retrofit" and found a local guy who gets good reviews from a lot of the lighting forums. His prices were reasonable, and outside of a handful of vocal online guys...

Thank you for clarifying this, and that's a great idea (and much cheaper than buying OEM)

BrianSD_42 no problem. I currently have a 98 4Runner with the old style lens and plan on doing a FX-R retrofit. I live in Brooklyn and there is a shop here that's local to me called HID Illusionz that's well regarded on the HID retrofitting forums. The guy, Rich, will do a full retrofit for me...

Any recommendation on where to buy OEM 99-02 complete headlight assemblys? I don't want to mess around with eBay and I feel like it's better to go all OEM. Is there a preferred OEM parts site that you guys recommend? I guess I could do TYC headlight assemblys from Rockauto (showing at $36 a...

Thanks for the help guys, I guess I'll just mod one up myself.

awesome, thank you so much for the help

Does anyone know where I can buy an aftermarket grill to drop into the 4Runner? The existing one is banged up a lot, and even if I were to do the Satoshi mod, I'm not sure that the grill frame is structurally sound enough to hold up... it's just time for a new one. Is there any place I can buy...

and every single black wheel that fits the tundra in size 16 is absolutely hideous.... these are the only ones that are decent

d'oh! im an idiot, didn't even think to search by vehicle for a 2005 Tundra. haha, thanks

Hey guys, I'm in the process of upgrading my T4R (armor, wheels, tires, brakes, lights, rock sliders, etc... pics to come when complete) and I was wondering if there are any wheels that I can order from Tirerack that are known to clear the Tundra 13WL 231mm brakes? I like the SCS F-5 wheels in...

Thanks Singtoe. Did Downey off-road make decent stuff? Nice to know the front is adjustable... I'lll try to get a better shot of the rear and see if that helps you guys identify it. I guess I should keep the fronts on there?

So my '98 T4R is back in my possession 15years after the day I bought it and since then it's had some work done to it. I was told that a Downey suspension was put on the truck, but honestly I have no idea if that's what's on here or not. I took some pictures, albeit not the best pics, in hopes...

Funny thing about that. So the truck has 164,000 miles on it. However, due to it not being driven much, as well as some less than stellar maintenance by a shady shop in Texas (youngest bro went to UT-Austin) while the car was down there, caused the engine to seize up about two months ago. It was...
