    Shock and strut question, Fox content etc

    Yeah, if you don't want to modify anything you will be stuck with the fox performance series version. Fox part number 880-06-409 are for the 1st gen Tacoma (95.5-2004) which shares all sorts of common parts with the 3rd gen 4runner.The top 3 mounting bolts are clocked about ~15 degrees off from...

    Shock and strut question, Fox content etc

    You can make the front DCS Fox shocks from the Taco work on the 4runner. It requires re drilling the upper mounting holes.

    Will a 3rd gen 3rd member bolt up to 1st gen Sequoia

    Sequoia uses a 8.4" ring gear vs the 8" of the 4runner. I'm pretty sure the 3rd member won't physically bolt into the Seq axle housing either (different bolt pattern)

    3rd Gen T4R Picture Gallery

    Glad I never sold this 3rd gen, so much fun out in the desert.

    Drivetrain binding -- IN AWD

    Are you sure you are unlocking and locking the center diff properly? When it is locked, turning will do what you are describing; binding and jumping. Unlocked would be smooth.

    4WD differences?

    5th and 6th gen 4runners in the limited trim get full time 4wd with locking center diff and high\low transfercase.

    17" Rock warrior 6-lug wheels on a 3rd gen

    They fit, went with Toyo RT Trail tires in 275/70r18 XL. These tires are only 43lbs each! Added E&E Off-Road replacement rock rings.

    17" Rock warrior 6-lug wheels on a 3rd gen

    3rd gen 4runner has a 106mm bore, same as 4th/5th gen 4runners and FJ Cruiser. Canguro racing uses the 5 lug version, which I have on my LX570. This version has a 110mm bore.

    My 4runner custom skid

    Been awhile and my 4runner needed an update. Even though the the steel one was really strong, it was difficult to remove for maintenance and way too heavy. Sub frame is machined from 6061-T6 Skids are 5052-H32 Oil access panels no more hump to clear radiator light bar mount integrated recovery...

    17" Rock warrior 6-lug wheels on a 3rd gen

    The ones I was referring to are pretty rare. They were an optional wheel for the 2010+ 4runner, PTR45-35010. 17" x 7.5" x 6mm, center bore 106mm, M12x1.5 lugs 25lbs. Anyway, I picked up the set, they bolted on and cleared the Tundra calipers. Deciding on what tires to mount on them.

    17" Rock warrior 6-lug wheels on a 3rd gen

    I was wondering if anyone has installed the rock warriors onto their 4runner, any pics? Would there be any issues with Tundra brake calipers? Currently I have 17" FJ cruiser wheels.

    After 4 years on 2"/2.5" 5100 and OME, I want more....

    After some more testing the rear 5160 shocks are not good, they are not valved correctly for higher speed running. I'm going to rebuild my 2.5 Icon piggyback shocks and put them back on. Front 6112 are good.
