    Thanks all!

    I should have started here - Hi everyone, new here and either mid life crisis or just renewed interest. My mom gave my teen her 2005 4runner, and wanting to make it cool for him, I went to town. A year later, it's a pretty cool first ride. I have a 2005 Tundra DC 2WD. After spending so much...

    Bilstein 5100s with rear spacer and adjusted front

    I love the bilstein 5100 set with the 0-2.5" front adjustable - but, my truck has no rear weight and the 1.8" springs gave me lift with factory looking rake. I like level, so sold the B12 special rear springs and put in Moog OEM height. sits perfect. you may want the springs that come in the...

    Simple stereo upgrade options
