    JerkyDrewster's 2001 4Runner Build V2

    I always wanted to do a push button start. Did you relocate the cylinder so you can still start the truck if something happens to the button?

    Retrofit headlight problems! Haaaalp!

    You could try the simple stuff like checking the pins and adding dielectric grease to the connections. However the troubleshooting for HID/LED components is basically: switch the drivers across the truck between both halos and see what happens is the problem moves with the driver it's bad, if...

    Retrofit headlight problems! Haaaalp!

    Have someone else turn the halos on while you watch the front of the truck. I'll bet the halo that is no longer flashing takes half a second longer to pop on. If so, try the turn signal and see if it switches back to white slow as well. It's almost definitely a driver error if the halo is still...

    Projectors Retrofit Project (doubts)

    You only need one motocontrol harness. I strongly encourage you to rethink the cheap amazon ballasts. Your going to be pumping juice straight off the battery to the 55 watt ballasts. If those have a melt down, which lets be honest, Chinese mass production quality, it's more likely to happen than...

    Fabtech Dirt Logic 2.5 Coil Over FTS26057-- Are they Any Good?

    Theses are fabtech Dirtlogic coilovers, old from what i can tell. Got them off a Tacoma... Ride pretty damn good to me. On road they feel like friends icons and kings. Offroad they're not quite the same but I don't have resi's like my buddy's do lol...

    TanRunner's 1999 SR5

    Nice to see you're keeping track of your build from the start! When you don't, then and try to play catch-up like me your build thread looks terrible... You should try and crack those tail lights open and paint the whole thing black, it'd look really cool with the clear lenses.

    Halogen vs HID vs LED comparo

    Information is the key in every argument. 1. The HID headlights are spec'd to 25W to avoid some kind of EU restriction, as its origin is Germany... 2. The bi-LED system also appears to be dual projector either giving the ability to run 2 times as many components or single dedicated larger...

    Bandit Runner's Build Thread

    Since you really like to model and sell stuff I'll be waiting for the dual housing to be in the for sale section... :snacker: Honestly this is sick, by far one of the coolest 4Runner retrofits I've ever seen.

    JMike46's Ultimate Adventure 3rd Gen Build

    Sounds like an interesting alteration that may work. I too was looking to run a 10" shock as well. Can't wait for updates!

    Retrofit kit questions from TRS

    I'll have to find my wiring diagram. It's a little over complicated based on the way I went about things with all the LED's and switchbacks in this retrofit... The actual bulb wiring is beyond simple. The motocontrol h4 specific kit from TRS is painfully simple to install as it is all plug and...

    Retrofit kit questions from TRS

    JMike46's Ultimate Adventure 3rd Gen Build

    So you want to make a drop bracket essentially? Sounds like a lot more work than its worth frankly... I have thought about doing this sort of thing many different ways but with already having bought a bolt on long travel kit I think you'll just create a huge headache for your self for mostly...

    Phantom Runner Build

    It's been a little too long since I've been on here. I did my first retrofit and now I've got the bug... I just want to retrofit all the things! Love em tho. Here's pics of the process and the final result.

    Retrofit kit questions from TRS

    Here's some more info to confuse you! :) D2S is always better to go with than H1. H1 is an aftermarket invention more or less and D2S is an OEM equipment bulb. The advantages of the D2S are insane. Widely available OEM ballasts and bulbs much better than Morimoto, although morimoto are very...

    JMike46's Ultimate Adventure 3rd Gen Build

    Well... You're building exactly what I want to... Idea that may not have crossed your mind, 80 series land cruiser rear axle; disk brakes with e-brake (which is often lost in a conversion), 1.5 inches wider on each side I think, ABS sensors plug right into the 4runner harness and the 9.5" is...
