I jumped on that as quick as I could man. Messaged the guy directly and he had them shipped out the next afternoon. I figured it would've made some people angry but I scooped them. I couldn't pass up $200 Icon UCA's..

They were a steal in the first place so I’m sure the seller was happy to get a little more for them. That has to be the deal of the year....... lol

Just for anyone interested, here is my EDC:

Were you able to program a 5th gen key to work your 4th?

Weekend upgrade:

Your 4runner is so nice! How bad was the rubbing with 285/70/17 when you just had the spacer lift? I just installed the 2.5”front spacer/1.5”rear toytec lift on my 2005 v8 4runner and I cant decide if i should go with 275/70/17 or could step up to 285/70/17.

Thanks for the comment!

I originally ran 285/70-r18 Toyo AT II's with my 3" Toytec spacer kit, and they rubbed once I put the Spidertraxx spacers on. I cut a bunch of plastic... then upgrade to the Toytec/Bilstein coil overs and did a body mount chop. I run 285/70-r17 Falken MT's and I have zero rub.

Lost traction.. it wasn't thick mud just spinning tires and wasn't budging.

Quick weekend addition:

Ok so I watched a couple of vids on how to make that grill you got. So why would you say it’s a pain? Got any pointers?

The blank mesh that I ordered from custom car grille didn't fit evenly and snug, so we had to cut and bend it to fit the frame of the grille. Also, I didn't finish everything on the first weekend so I went over a week without a grille. Plus my patience is very limited lol.
