    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    When you get this installed, post up some pictures and how the installation went. I was on Cruthfield's website tonight and seen that model and the 5600 ones also on sale.

    Compiled: FJ Springs Lift Info for 4th gen

    Have you looked into the MOOG springs front and rear? They will be abit more money but you will be starting with all new parts. That is what I did with my "new to me" 08 4runner. I went with 5100s and Moog 81090 and 80145. They are OEM replacement springs and it works to be the same as factory...

    Honestly for the price and "prime" shipping, I got my front and rear from Amazon. Shipping was 2-3 days tops and ran me $355 total with shipping.

    Installed Bilsteins 5100 last night... front strut question

    In the front strut picture you will notice that the paint spots are facing the wrong way. This was my first attempt of installing them the other day when I ran into the bushing issues discussed above. I was able to get some miles on the new suspension and can't believe what a HUGE difference...

    Serious want to thank you guys for not only explaining it and taking time to reply back. I sure had to compress the spring alot more then I thought was necessary. I worked out perfect now.

    Installed Bilsteins 5100 last night... front strut question

    Thank you for the help. But with all the members changing over to Bilstein. I am the only one that has run into this issue. The Toyota part diagram shows no lower bushing below the "hat" and I don't have the room for both bushings.

    Installed Bilsteins 5100 last night... front strut question

    After lots of reading on the forum, I decided to go with the 5100s for a good all around ride and front end height adjustment. The front and rear had been replaced with Monroe all the way around sometime ago by the previous owner. They were soft and scary on rougher roads. So yesterday I went on...

    Write-up: How to Disable (Bypass) the TPMS

    I used your idea and another members to simply remove the module altogether. I have a 08' so the wiring is slightly different, black/pink wire and black/maroon, but used a jumper wire at the end of the connector and taped it up. No more annoying warning light. Many thanks for the numerous ideas.

    I have been in need of a tow and all around get around vehicle. Been spying on the forum for 1 month now. Finally found a 08" in good shape at a somewhat local dealer.
