Funny you point that out. My truck had the lower ball joint go out and the front pass wheel fell into the fender causing the same problem. Let me ask you a question. I feel it would probably be better to find another fender at a salvage yard with the same paint job than fixing that one. Have...

So help me understand backspacing. So the lower the number the more the rim would stick out the side of the vehicle? So the wheels in the pic I attached would work well then?

Ok... I will absolutely make sure of the backspacing. I would prefer to avoid the spacers cuz I feel like the less I have to add the better. Great info, much appreciated!

So I have a 97 4runner limited. It has the huge factory flares. It's 2wd and I want to lift it. I also want to use a wider wheel so it fills up the flares. I see a lot of people use spacers. Is there any difference with using a 10inch wide wheel as oppose to going 7or8 inch and adding a...

Did it last weekend. Took like 15mins. IMO trucks look better when they're gone.

Pure F****** BULLSHIT

Cool... was that Toyota emblem from a FJ? I looked them up and they are like 80 bucks but, it should look crazy!

Have you tackled that grill mod yet? Would really like to see what it looks like with that Toyota emblem you have.

I replaced my recently. I was lucky to find a member who had some. The one thing I found is when I put in the vents they were really loose. I bought some nylon washers from Lowes and put 2 on one side and one on the other and if fit in really snug. Here is the link that shows what I used...

I FREAKING LOVE YOUR TRUCK!!! I have the exact same vehicle in terms of color combo. I recently removed the stock running boards and having been going back and forth on black wheels while having grey stock flares. This truck looks great though! I think I will end up with the black set up.

So I'm shopping for a lift kit for my 97 4runner lmtd 2wd. I want to do about a 3 inch lift kit. There are so many out there. Any suggestions on which would be quality lifts? Also, any other upgrades or changes you would make before or after the lift? Any help appreciated! If you have a...

That sounds like a lot. You can get replacement bumpers off ebay for like $100 a piece. My 4runner bumpers is bolted on a few brackets. I wouldn't pay a body, unless there is damage, to replace them. Sounds like they are taking some sizeable labor fees.

Whatever the dealer charges. I just got drilled when I asked about some aftermarket stuff..LOL! I would also recommending changing both if possible. Good thing you were stopped.

Thanks for the info... OEM part is $40 bucks! I don't mind paying but I don't see too much of an issue without it. Other than the lower valance may sag there... we'll see. It may just be a part I head to the salvage yard for.
