    New shoes look great. Tell me, are you pleased with the bilsteins and stock shock? This is my biggest question about mine. I am trying to decide.

    Leveling Kit and then some

    I have a question for you. While talking to the tire store the other day- he mentioned that I might be able to replace my front struts with Toyota's "OffRoad" bilstein combo. I think that would be what they put on Tacoma's. Would this fit? Would it be any taller? I would imagine it would be an...

    OK- My bad. I see what ARK is saying- OEM(origanial Equipment Manufacturer). Got it. Are these springs available-say ebay? What would i look for? Does Toyota make different ones for the FJ?

    Leveling Kit and then some

    ARK, I have decided on the Michelin LTX2. Great tire, good highway and traction. OK- I am not familier with this OME. I am assuming that you are saying to change out the springs. Hence- would the med. OME give the 4runner a bit of lift or just firmness (it swims now). Also with these new...

    Leveling Kit and then some

    I have a few things to deal with on my 08 SR5 4X4. 1) Tires: I have a set of Michelin Cross Terrain. They are noisey, hard and the 4runner tends to wander with small road ruts. I have a hard time keeping them balanced as well. 2) Suspension: Stock setup at present. I want to level the...

    The "Clunk"

    Question: Has anyone had a Clunking noise after you break and the rear of the 4runner settles down? I am told, and I have read, that it is the Driveshaft flex joint (proper name escapes me). The connection stretches as the rear end goes up from breaking. Once the vehicle stops and the rear comes...

    Michelin Cross Terrains in winter?

    I have the same truck- 08 sr5 4wd with cross Terrains, only 17". I am in the foothills of the smokies and I can assure you these tires do very well in the wintery stuff. I was amazed last winter with the 4Runner and the grip I had in nasty, icey, snow-slush ... I never broke traction!

    Rattle underneath

    2008 SR5 4X4. 24k miles - no mods. (yet) I have a rattle from underneath. It is only there when I go over bumps. For instance, the lip between a bridge and the solid pavement, I hear it rattle very well. Nothing seems to be broken or malfunctioning but this is a new thing to this toyota. Ant...
