Thanks for the clarification!

Trying to release rear rotors on 2012 4runner Question: Step E, where is the shoe adjuster, under the center console? I am trying to replace my rear rotors but the emergency brake shoes are holding the rotor on. I released the cable under the dash but I still have resistance and can't get...

I wish we could get some of the engines that the rest of the world has.

I miss my Land Cruiser also. Getting the itch to get back in one.

Wheels look awesome! [ QUOTE=MStudt;1837638]Got 4 of the wheels clear coated last tonight. I might get them on tonight, but not sure. Waiting till tomorrow will allow a little more time for the paint to set.

That is one cool color!

Beautiful!!
