Have SumoSprings rear. Love them with the added weight in rear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s been a minute, but the 4R stuff has not stopped! Been in the process of buying a new home so money and time has been tight. But a much bigger garage and workspace will give me so much more freedom on building the 4R. Some sale last year I picked up the Victory 4x4 center console molle...

I’ve always ran the TRD filter. PN - PTR4300080. Better filter than OEM but can be pricey from stealership. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well a few week project turned to a success! Mainly because holidays and learning a new skill, but I built a drawer system… kinda! A few weeks back I was scrolling through Craigslist (which has been good to me with this truck) and stumbled across a sleeping platform. It was posted for $20...

Not the OP but in the process of building my own. I’m using the factory tie down points in the back. There’s 4 in the corners, no need to cut carpet, and already a secure point. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cali Raised LED or other even Amazon you can buy a wire harness with quick connect weatherproof plugs for pretty cheap. Security bolt/nuts are worth it too, I have all my lights secured with them. Not impossible to get by, but at least a deterrent. https://a.co/d/0jCeRvc Wiring Harness -...

Got some little things done this week while I had the time. I had a TPMS sensor that was out or going out (flashing light on dash). It was going on for about 2-3 months but I wasn’t in a rush to get it done, other than the camping trip a couple months ago. Took it to discount tires and found...

As a former detailer I’ve done a few things on other vehicles to fix it without much labor or cost. A good polish and Ceramic Coating can hide the issue for a year or two. Or you can also use Clear Coat wipes to make it look better (then polish) for 4-5 years. I’ve had good luck with the wipes...

Toyota Syn, and the TRD Oil Filter every time! I live in mild desert winters and hot summers. Never had an issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Got some well needed maintenance done today. Through my years of owning I never did plugs and coils, and figured now would be the time! I looked into spark plug replacement and found 1A Auto. Not only did it seem like quality parts, but the amount of install videos that they have for 4G 4Runners...

I too have aftermarket LED. I’ve had them for a few years without issue. Like stated above the metal contacts can be an issue at first, I just gently pried them out for better contact and never had an issue since install. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No leaks is good. I’ve always left my master cylinder full when bleeding brakes, even though it may look good after doesn’t mean as you’re pumping it is sucking dry. Wrap some towels around the MC fill her up close to top and pump! Probably just a massive air bubble stuck in the new lines. Once...

If it was all working fine before the new lines and you were swapping lines as you removed them a blockage is minimal. Noticing any leaks with the new lines? I’ve always had the cap off when doing brakes. Always start farthest from master cylinder (RR, RL, FR, FL). Do you have someone watching...

Been busy for the last 5 months and haven’t given this thing the love it deserves! Was able to get a trip in the last few days and tried out a multitude of new things. Again space is key and I think I’m getting it figured out. Packing the roof rack was a little different this time now that I...

I can only speak on the sway bar bushings from Energy. They are sweet, greatly improved feeling on those long freeway turns. Haven’t noticed any difference off-road with them either, stress tested them on a trail and noticed no difference in wheel travel/flex. Only PITA is you have to order them...
