    Ordering 4.56 gears for f&r diffs.

    Just added self. Where does this stand? I'm running 33" tires now and does ok, but I'm working towards having 35's by this summer and definitely need regear (along with f/r lockers).

    Help: Dome Light Question.

    I appreciate the help from you all. I guess I was nuts thinking they worked differently. In the Sequoia they come on when you open the door, and they're on/off/door switch is actually the switch on the middle dome light -- it controls both middle and front. But... I stand corrected. Thanks...

    Help: Dome Light Question.

    Can someone please help me on how the dome lights for my '05 4Runner should work? I had an installer put in an alarm and a drop-down video screen for the rear passengers. The video screen took the place of the main dome light, but has an integrated light. I'm pretty sure the interior lights...

    Lift Choices

    I'm concerned you might be right. It's sad, since these vehicles have actually been out for 3 1/2 years! I mean the new FJ's just out and Donahoe had stuff for that when it hit the street. I really have been holding out for a 4-corner Donahoe solution, but I may end up having to do something...

    Lift Choices

    2005 4runner remote starter kit

    Problems with remote start - Astro?! Has anyone had any problems with their remote starts? Especially Astro brand? I have a 2005 SR5 4Runner and got an Astro 2WA paging alarm, remote starter. I seem to have a very competent installer who has worked diligently with me, but the darned thing...

    Donahoe 4th Gen Coil-Overs now available

    I realize if anybody would know it's you, based on your own setup. But... I've tried finding info from anyone who's run this exact tire with a similar lift and haven't found anything. According to the manufacturer the BFG AT in 285/70R17 is the same diameter but _slightly_ narrower on the same...

    Donahoe 4th Gen Coil-Overs now available

    As soon as there is a DR Solution for all 4 wheels, I'm in. (Assuming the rear solution is coil-based.) I guess I'm going to have to hold out another month or so? Please tell me it's not much longer than that. Also, please tell me exactly what you mean by 33" -- I've got the factory 17's...

    Advice: trade '04 SE for '05 SR5?

    Re: Re: Today's the day... Geez -- cut me in for 1/2, and I'll give you the inside scoop! Well, I've never been the financial genius that all the advisors on T4R seem to be. So.... I actually put a very detailed list together of everything I'd be gaining and losing by trading, and I put a...

    Advice: trade '04 SE for '05 SR5?

    Today's the day... I didn't realize I'd be giving up the telescoping wheel. I guess I need to drive an '05 SR5 and decide if I need the telescoping wheel and decide if I can really tell a difference with the VVTI. I need to decide today -- stereo install is tomorrow and it's either going in...

    Advice: trade '04 SE for '05 SR5?

    The V8 has met my needs, but I do want more power. I don't really need it, but I don't like knowing there are others out there with more power. It just makes me feel week and small... ;-) So tell me -- is the vvti _noticeably_ different? I guess largely what I'm thinking is that if I'm...

    Advice: trade '04 SE for '05 SR5?

    Really -- I didn't see a whole lot of anything except different headlights and a slight grill change -- what else? But -- I wouldn't be getting as good a deal. Plus, I'm kinda in a hurry -- I want the stereo! LOL.

    Advice: trade '04 SE for '05 SR5?

    I need some advice. I have an '04 V8 Sport with 12,000 miles on it. I really like it, but sorta bought it on a whim last year before researching and didn't realize the issues with lifting it. I really wanted a coil-over lift, but had to go with the 2 1/2" Daystar plus some Goodrich AT's...

    BF Goodrich vs Revo

    I have that setup: Daystar spacer lift and 265 70 17's. Might look a little smallish -- if I could easily do over I'd buy without XREAS and put a real lift and go up one size in tire -- ah, next time. P.S. I do get a bit of rubbing even with these at times.

    GMRS radios.

    Midlands My cheap -- e.g. 49 bucks at Best Buy -- 3 watt Midlands noticeably outperformed my brother's 1 watt Motorola's -- e.g. well over a mile in very mountainous terrain.
