    Sway Away Suspension lift installation

    I did the install myself and it was level when I finished it. Aesthetic rear springs and shocks the same on both sides? Did you have it installed somewhere? If so I would contact them and make sure all the parts are the same. Look at both sides were the springs are and see if you can tell if...

    Diff Breather Tube Routing Locations (not gas cap)

    The search link will be your friend. Read this thread. I put mine in the driver side tail light housing. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/off-roading-home-monst4rs/123-breather-install.html

    tire size?

    depends if you mind trimming or not. I have a lift and put on 275's on the stock rims and had to trim. Some have 285's even.

    They are from www.Spidertrax.com If you have a 4th gen you need the hub centric version. Each space is 1.25 inches so it widens your wheelbase by 2.5". They are pretty cheap at 99 bucks a pair and have been great so far. I've had them on for about a year.

    Old Man Emu Suspension Install

    I installed sway away coilovers about a year ago. I had xreas as well. Here is a write up I did on that project. It was pretty easy. Use your bottle jack that's in the car to pry/push/make room to slide the springs in. It will make your life much easier...

    honestly I don't miss the xreas at all. I think it handles better now than it did with it, but I haven't driven with xreas for a long time. I got ran off the road by a truck one night doing about 75 on the free way out in the middle of nowhere. There was dirt and small shrubs etc. on the side of...

    insurance issue

    I agree with Koz. I am an insurance agent/broker out here in Socal and trust me. I will not write an auto policy without uninsured/underinsured coverage as our minimum limits here for property damage is only 5k. First I would check with your insurance company to see if you have this coverage and...

    Painful Video of Hummer H3 Blowing Front Diff

    dude should have bought an old H1. The inline 5 and the gears on the H3 are garbage. I was driving in mexico once with my while it was stock and my buddy's little brother was in his new H3 and he couldn't keep up, not even close, both on the pavement going up grades and off. The only Hummer I...

    Sway Away Suspension lift installation

    It's not that hard. It was time consuming, but part of that was figuring out some things like using the bottle jack to push down on the control arms front and rear to pop out and in the old and new springs/shocks. I could probably do it now in about 3 to 4 hours by myself. Just be careful not to...

    Sway Away Suspension lift installation

    I don't know, I think it was to specs. It was the laser alignment machine so it is pretty accurate.

    Sway Away Suspension lift installation

    yes and no. You will need to everytime you adjust your suspension. Some places will do it and gaurantee it for a year so you could just take it back to them I guess. As far as adjustments, there is a small allen screw in the ring that holds the coil in place that needs to be loosened first, it...

    Sway Away Suspension lift installation

    After running the SAW's for a few months I have to say they are great. They have great street manners and soak up the bumpy concrete on the free way. There is the same or less body roll than the xreas so that is great too. Off road they are awesome. I was going through a really rough section of...

    Brake Clunk?

    yup. It happens to me more often if I brake harder than normal.
