I just got the Level 8 MK6, and am diggin the look.

In my quest for adding aftermarket upper control arms, it looks like I will have to replace the wheels. Icon and Camburg (my 2 favourite UCA options) list a maximum of 5" backspacing, which is a little close for comfort to the stock wheels: What are some good hub-centric wheel options, which...

I love the ol' "Coast down a hill and reset the lie-o-meter" trick. Great way to fool passengers

That's the master cylinder for your brakes. Perfectly normal.

That's okay, it looks like I'll have to ditch my bilsteins and get Fox shocks for the 3" LT springs anyway. I was just confused because Wheeler's said that 3" springs would work with my 5100's, but everything I've read on here says otherwise.

If you take your time and do a quality job, then yeah I could see some profit in it. On the other hand, a big reason that a lot of people do the satoshi mod is because they can fully customize the look of their grille to their liking; something buying it off the internet just can't beat. Why...

Are yours the 2" or 3" LT springs? I'm considering making the switch to the metaltech or icon 3" LT springs, but want to know if it is safe to keep running the Bilsteins with them (They're only advertised for 0-2" of rear lift). I'm afraid they will bottom out with that much down-travel.

Dual battery?

Maybe the slip on your driveshaft is grinding while compressing? Trying to think outside the box, it's right under the rear seats

Just got back from GSMTR 2015 and thought I'd update a little. 4Runner V 3.3 DizzyDoyle I also added a blue sea fusebox and cleaned up my birdnest under the hood: Now it's time for some Icon UCAs and toytec springs in the next few months....

Just get a cheapo Rola rack, RTV silicone the hell out of it, and slap some decals on the wind screen. Close enough.

Get all 4 LT in a C load. Can't go wrong. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=70

First, let's ditch those running boards and mud flaps. Next, join this FB group for some wheeling: Central Alabama 4Runners

Yep, probably just a roof rack with a TRD sticker thrown on. So probably cheaper than a TRD product anyway!
