just discovered this thread and i really hope RichinRidgewood is ok

I love the look of them, and they are SUPER solid. like i can jump up and down on them and there is no movement at all relative to the truck frame. There are a lot of bolts! Also I watched a few videos for the install, and one of them suggested drilling through the slider when a bolt hole...

I recently picked up a set of these from Adventure Motors in KC (the very last set of sliders they had!). Immediately took the t4r to moab / CO to see if i could bash the living F out of them. After Cinnamon, Ophir, White Rim/Potash Road, Fins n Things, and a bunch of random county roads, i can...

i thought this thread was going to be about the dangerous activity of shopping for gear / mods on your phone while driving in cruise control

thanks for the input, everybody. I heard enough from locals that there is a pretty tippy narrow section that I probably *could* have handled, but I decided to avoid this route and just take Kebler Pass instead. With another vehicle and/or spotter (my wife has no interest in this) I would have...

glad you had a good time, OP. I also just got back from Moab. this year did Fins n Things (again) and White Rim / Potash. I did not want to do White Rim but I'm glad I did. incred scenery. But it is pretty boring after the switchbacks (except for that awesome river overlook). After White Rim...

awesome, thanks for the heads up. i found him on ig and pm'd him some videos i took from that spot that are pretty great.

just got back from two weeks in CO / Moab Mosquito check out the flex on my new 5100s this was right after crossing the actual pass. I came across a section of road that was snow-covered and looked very sketchy. i was mulling over whether or not i wanted to attempt it, when some monster...

Please don't F with the cruise control stick! Reminds me of my 03 IS (rest in power)

i miss setting the a/c to 74 and never touching it on my 2005 (lol) Nissan. that said, it's not a deal breaker by any means

Just did the install with a buddy over the weekend. 5100 all around, 0.85" front / stock rear, factory coils. I am absolutely ecstatic about the ride quality. Feels like I traded in my '87 hoop-d for an actual 4runner. Here is before/after
