I only used standard tools, namely a Gearwrench ratcheting wrench set, Stanley socket set, and various extensions from Harbor Freight, an engine...

    Steering Rack bushing Replacement - All 4th Gens

    It makes the world of a difference, especially if you do new tie rod ends while you’re at it. I’ve heard or people making other brands from other models work but these are the only ones specifically made for the 4th gen 4runner that I’ve seen as well. Once the old bushings were out, the new...

    Recommendations for new headlight casings

    I just installed DT Moto black out headlights on my truck a couple of weeks ago. so far, they are great. I would only run LED bulbs in them as the watt rating for the sockets is low. My standard turn signal bulbs started melting the receptacle. Details are in my build thread.

    ZLJUANN'S RallyRunner Build Thread

    9/13/2020 - Finally installed the headers. Instead of hacking up my stock cats, I straight piped the shorties. I used all stainless components. 2.5" pipe to 2.25 reducers to 2.25 flanges. I have to admit that I tried to use flux core stainless welding wire and it boogered it up. I ended up...

    8/31/2020 - She spent a few weeks on 5th gen trd orp wheels/tires while I waited for my new wheel/tire setup to come in. I have to say, it didn't look half bad and they weighed 31lb lighter per corner. Made a huge difference in the MPG and towing department.

    8/27/2020 - Almost missed this one. Spent some time refreshing all the steering components. It's not glorious work or shiny new mods, but it transformed the feel of the car. I made a write up you can find in my profile about it. All new tie rod ends, rack bushings lubed everything up.

    9/2/2020 - I added some black out headlights from dt Moto on Ebay. I have to say, the quality is great, but you have to use LED bulbs for everything. The wattage rating for the sockets is low. Links to all the components: For Black 2006-2009 Toyota 4Runner Replacement Headlights lamps...

    8/29/2020 - I spent a lot of the summer on other projects, namely the POS 2008 f250 that I had. I added a Rotopax fuelpax to the side of the Rola roof rack. A little extra fuel capacity for the long towing trips.

    5/12/2020 - I swapped the Dobinson c59-675v to the 677v. They came black so I sprayed them an off the shelf teal. Not an exact match but close.

    Steering Rack bushing Replacement - All 4th Gens

    Hey guys, thought I would share a little bit of useful information here, as it took me a lot of research to find the correct information to get this done. Some of you have seen my build thread, but in summary I have a 4wd v8 long travel 4runner. In the last couple of months, I started...
