You can adjust the rear up or down an inch or two using the end links near the axle. http://im.toyota-4runner.org/attachments/4th-gen-t4rs/53484d1321518787-4th-gen-suspension-options-faq-ras-pdf.pdf

I see plenty of exhausts listed in signatures around here. How did your spring bolt install work out? Did they fit installed on the side of the flange, or did you just leave the springs off or something? Thanks.

I was changing out the gasket between my Gibson exhaust and the stock cat to fix a leak, and remembered seeing this post recently about the orientation of the springs on the spring bolt. Mine were the wrong way, so I tried fitting it the correct way. Am I the only one who's bolts are not...

I agree that it is a good idea, but specifically I'm trying to find out if Toyota recommends or requires that you do in any official documentation. I had a shop do my TB a few months ago, and it threw a CEL right when I picked it up. I took it back, they checked the timing again and told me it...

*Blank stare* So you need a few hundred dollars of mostly cosmetic fixes? What car doesn't? You've spent many times that in mods so far, so why worry about these little things? Hardly "big stuff." Fix them and get back to enjoying it.

Don't bother with halogens if you already have a projector housing. I got the $50 DDM kit a year or so ago, installed it in 20 minutes with no tools, and it made a HUGE difference. It's my favorite mod so far. Seriously, if you have projector housings, you're already halfway there. You see...

He came out and measured last week. Hey people, quit offering to help him if you're closer than me! I still want to be the one who gets a sneak peek at the new toys. :)

Thanks. What was your source for this info? The only reference to that 4runner part that I found was here, and it doesn't list pricing or anything. Thanks, bookmarked. I can't seem to find the hitch parts on there, but I agree, the diagrams are much more useful on this site. Yeah, it's...

Can anyone confirm that the bracket and tow hitch plug that are broken in this picture are the bracket and wiring harness listed on the various parts websites? They are not included on the diagram, and I want to be sure this is correct before dropping $200. The fact that they list a separate...

I'm in Columbia and should be around most of the week. Shoot me an email at tsonnenl at hotmail.

You're doing better than I did. I broke two sockets on the first rusty skid plate bolt I tried, and quit without making any progress whatsoever.

Based on my research on opinions of like-minded people, I guess I expected something closer to this: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/96193-got-my-gibson-cat-back-today-sweeet.html

First I'd like to thank Jason at Burtman for a very smooth purchase. I wanted to give my business to a forum sponsor if I could, and he quoted me a very competitive price, and then went above and beyond to get it built and shipped out to me in time to be installed this weekend after I mentioned...

That's probably my main off road use as well, and even though I have future plans of a slight lift, larger tires, wheel spacers, etc, I've taken it out on the beach in stock form several times and it is very capable. So much nicer than dragging all of the little one's beach stuff out there by...

FYI - The ECM is right behind the glove box and is fairly easy to get to. 6 or 8 screws, and you'll have it out in 15 minutes. You'll have to pay for an hour of labor or so for them to flash the new ECM to match your immobilizer, but you can save 200 bucks on the install without much hassle.
