Yeah-- I've always had the "lift is the issue" in the back of my mind. The service manager at the Lexus dealership said it wasn't out of normal range on the KDSS with the lift but it was at the upper normal limits, for whatever that's worth. I'm just saying that 245s with no lift on a TE...

I know it's a little tongue in cheek, but no-- this forum never told me it would last forever... However, given that it's a system put on the GX, Land Cruiser, and the 4runner and given the reputation for all these vehicles being long lived, I thought I could reasonably expect that it would...

I first posted this thread prior to having the 4runner examined. So-- after having a Lexus dealer evaluate the suspension (they have more KDSS on the GX line), the dealer told me that both my front and rear cylinders were leaking and the entire system would be replaced @ the cost of about...

(Second problem ever with my 4runner) Hit 125,000 miles in the 2010 trail-- have the JBL premium with navigation, and a couple of months back talking over bluetooth with my phone, I noticed a large amount of distortion coming from the right dash speaker, to the point where I have to turn down...

I just hit 125,000 miles on my 2010 trail with KDSS (original owner). I have a 3" Toytech ultimate lift on it which I had installed at about 6,000 miles. Just this last week as I was taking a cross country trip to New Mexico, my KDSS light came on and the 4runner seemed to wander in the lane...

Great Pics! I'll be heading out to Guadalupe Peaks sometime in Feb. from the Tx hill country. I haven't made that trip before-- I spend more time in Big Bend than anywhere else out there, but it's time to expand my horizons. Going to give my Nikon a workout...

The discount tire shop here outside of Austin hasn't charged me a penny to mess with my TPMS, so it might just be regional. They also would rotate and balance my Mt/R tires that I have on my Jeep Wrangler without ever mentioning that I had Spidertrax on them. However, the last time I went in...

There are two silver TE's for sale in Austin, Tx. One is a 2012 silver TE with 3k miles at covert ford Covert Ford | Austin New & Used Ford Dealer serving Round Rock, Cedar Park & Georgetown Texas and the other is a 2010 TE at Apple Sport Imports with 3x,xxx miles on it Used Cars Austin |...

Looks good! I've always been partial to Mag Grey. I've been running the TT ultimate for about 18 months and I've been very pleased. You will def. get a kick out of it when someone comes up and asks "that's not stock, is it?" E

Apparently somebody stole the imogene pass sign... I don't think that's the first time that's happened.

About two weeks ago I headed out from central Texas to Colorado to get a few things accomplished. 1. Get away from people, 2. do some fly fishing, 3. try out the TE on some beautiful Colorado trails. I accomplished what I set out to do in the Durango-Silverton-Telluride-Ouray area. My buddy...

I'm trying to plan that same (hopefully) trip at about the same time. Arriving on about the 7th, departing around the 12th or 13th. I was about to ask the same questions. Any help given to flatlanders is greatly appreciated! :thumb3: I'm not entirely sold on going all the way to Ouray (only...

I got a D7000 2 months ago to replace my D40 that I had for almost five years. The camera is outstanding, but the D5100 is very close, the meat and bones under the skin are pretty much the same. The D7k has more buttons, a different menu set, and a beefier body. The 55-300mm I'm somewhat...

Hi and welcome! Let me start out by saying that the search function (the google one, not the search drop down tab) is your best bet on finding a wealth of information on most all your questions about lifts. That being said, I have had no problems or issues with my 3" lift from toytec, but...

Hey Nark-- Very nice and clean looking installation. One quick question on the air tanks. With the location that they are in, are you concerned about hitting the drain valve/tank or eventual corrosion of the components?
