Or a G43 in a cute little paddle. Glad I'm not the only one, my first thought when I saw that little cubby was "gonna stick a pistol in there". :naughty:

It's ported, so it rolls off a bit differently than a sealed enclosure, but with the control knob I installed with it, I think it sounds perfect. It enables me to dial in just the right amount of sub for whatever music I'm listening to. Never too boomy or sloppy, IMO. I've had both sealed and...

Somebody was asking about this today...

Here's the thread on my JL MicroSub install. It's awesome, and fills in the low end perfectly without sacrificing a crazy amount of space or usability. YMMV. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/233181-16-trail-premium-finally-integrated-my-amp-sub.html

Hey Orlando. Thanks! The lift is the RevTek 432 kit w rear shocks that some Toyota dealers are using. I really like it for the money, excellent ride quality and alignment is perfect.

Agreed. I've been road-tripping all over the US for years, and a 5-gallon gas can has saved my ass a few times. Mostly due to big swings in mileage (4WD, crazy winds, etc) or stations that don't exist. Once because I wasn't paying attention. It's cheap insurance, and it also allows me to help...

Very nice! Using a spacer lift myself (RevTek 432), and for the money, I love it. Excellent ride, perfect alignment, good to go.

Factory TRD wheels in matte gray with BFG K02 in 275/70/17. The OEM Trail wheels are pretty nice on their own, but these totally change the look, I really dig 'em.

If you're willing to drive, both Stevenson and Mountain States Toyota have made me fantastic deals in the past. Both are medium / high volume dealers and don't appear to have much time to screw around. Both are listing '16 4Runner Trail / Trail Premiums in stock at about $2,000 off MSRP, which...

Mounted my TRD skid plate, which was MUCH more of a pain in the ass than I thought it would be, and then went exploring to check out a piece of mountain property we're considering.

Thanks! Zero rub, no matter what. Lock to lock, forward and reverse, no issues. The ride is great and I'm super happy with how it turned out.

Thanks! Suspension is the RevTek 432 kit, tires are BFG K02 in 275/70. Very happy with how it turned out.

I'm shocked how well these things perform for how small they are. I've been installing amps and subs in my cars for a couple decades now, and I remember the monstrous heat sinks required back in the day, along with unregulated power supplies that murdered my electrical system when the bass hit.

This is all good advice. Was it TacoTunes that was making those harnesses? I remember seeing those in a few installs over on TundraTalk.

Thanks! Alpine's recent stuff runs very cool in my experience, I've never had it overheat or shut down. It is installed right next to the rear-seat ducts, but just out of the way. I've never had an issue, but keep in mind I'm running it at 4 ohms. Under a 2-ohm load, it will probably get a...
