Nah, 24's are small these days. 32" wheels are all the rage.

Yeah they are bizarre but I found them on CL in like new condition with Falkens complete down to the lug nuts for $750 and surprisingly they ride nice. No problems like I had with a set of Helo 20" rims with Toyos. I even do some "very light" off roading with them. For the price, they are good.

24" Structures AKA Ghetto skates

I bet the original cross bars were removed because they do rattle a little at slow speed and bad road conditions. The only other things you need to be worried about is the RAS (rear air suspension) if you have it and XREAS suspension if equipped. Both systems are not worth fixing. Just convert...

Replacing the battery will also knock out the auto up/down feature on the driver door window and the auto open/close on the sunroof too. Both need to be reset by openning fully and closing fully without letting switch go to properly reset. Heated mirrors won't work either until rear window is reset.

I decided to document my suspension fix (conversion) so it may help others. It all starts with my 2004 Limited with the dreaded RAS & XREAS systems. I am the original owner and only have 31000 miles on the clock. Several months back the RAS started to do some bizarre things or nothing at all. On...

RAS to Coil spring conversion and Gabriel Air Shocks!!! Well I just had to convert the RAS on my 2004 Limited due to system failure to coil springs and am having a set of air shocks made so I can control ride height under different towing situations. I am not a fan of air bags and there are...

Just go get a nut splitter and some new links and be done with it.

Not worth it. They will only get worse no matter what you do with them. my stock 2004 wheels are garbage (winter wheels). Get yourself some new / used aftermarket wheels. I picked up some nice 24" Structures with like new tires for only $750 off Craigslist.

I have a 2004 Limited with the dreaded rear air suspension. XREAS is OK for now (very low miles). The rear of 4Runner was riding quite high and dash lights were flashing "OFF" so I inspected height sensors. Driver's side OK, passenger side sensor was beyond saving. I just bolted all back in...

Forum seems to be working as it should now, though I have not been on it for some weeks due to it being so slow. whatever fixed it, thanks so much!!!

Veeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyy Slllllllooooooowwwwww I am using XP and IE8, any click of the mouse/ page load times are better than one minute............. but I think it isn't server side. Why? Because forum works flawlessly with my Samsung Galaxy Note2 running Jelly Bean on my Wifi G router...

Well I was having several weird problems with my 2004 4Runner Limited, mostly electrical and with the air suspension. So I logged on to this forum and all problems except suspension fixed in like minutes!!! Will fix suspension tomorrow, at least I know what to look for. I was even contemplating...
