    Adjusting the speedometer to work with 265/75R16 tires

    I went from 265/70/16 to 265/70/17, so it's a similar diameter difference. For whatever reason, my speedometer doesn't seem to be affected at all. I've been through multiple different speed radar signs since getting the new wheels and tires, and every time the speed matches exactly what is being...

    Frame Rust Problem - What should I do?

    Thanks! I've looked at the safe t cap before and that definitely seems like the easiest way to do it. So what would you recommend for cleaning out the frame? I think I got the worst of those rust flakes out yesterday, but that was only inside a very small length of the frame. It took me over an...

    How many miles on your 4runner?

After that amount of time I feel like I’d know if...

    Whats your favorite style of OEM bumper?

    I don’t dislike either of the bumper styles, but I think it looks good when people trim the edges of the older, thin style bumpers. I have a chrome fat-lip bumper, but I don’t mind it because my 4R is black. I don’t know how I’d feel about the blacked-out look if my bumpers were color matched.

    How many miles on your 4runner?

    Recently hit 240,000 on my 2000 SR5. No mechanical problems in the year that I have owned it besides a bad starter. It isn’t so problem free for my frame though… :cry2:
