Over the last couple months she has had subtle makeover..TRD Tundra coils w/5100's up front, rear still stock saggin a$$. And looking like cover photo for "Bro" Offroad Magazine and the definition of what a "Bro" stance is. Well atleast until I install the new LC 7 wraps and new rear LC Tokico (black) Trekmasters I ordered from the dealership which arrive Tuesday, thank goodness.

Also have flushed out all fluids replaced with Mobil 1 synthetics, NGK G-power platinum spark plugs and wires, oem air filter, belts, radiator, and all the other under the hood maintenance a 200k engine should get, fresh start to a new life.
Running smooth, strong well as much you can expect from a 4cyl 2.7L. The Lil Engine that can and will.

Also changed front/rear sway bar bushing, f/r endlink bushings, steering rack bushings, did the complete steering rack rebuild, new brake pads for now until tundra upgrade. satoshi grill top and bottom, murdered 3 spoke rims w/red emblem, 90% debadged, CB mount and 3' firstik, all white led gauges, complete led interior swap, new oem complete mats, and bunch of other parts from T4R classifieds.

I need to order those to pair with my 906 coils. You wouldn't happen to have the part #s handy would you?

LC Shocks?

LC Rear Shocks 93'-97' left and right
Part# 48531-69417
Tokico Trekmasters (black)
paid $42.64 each from my local dealership

they came up $56 each
I'm good customer with them and told my now buddy parts dept manager I can get them online through various Toyota dealerships with prices anywhere from $42-$48 and only asked if he could get closer to those prices to keep me just under a hundred bucks? he said how about $42.64 each? Done brotha and thank you again.

And theres also separte oem washers that are $10 bucks each..so x4 $40 bucks
or do the grade 8 washers from HD or Lowe's
or use the 4runner stock washer and have the bushings squished over the edges of the washers once tightened down.

Yep. I ran across a couple of different possibilities so it's just a verification that I will order the right ones. I appreciate it.

Anytime brotha...
by the way I'm just down the hill from you off 62 fwy Desert Hot Springs, in Mission Lakes Country Club. If you wanna meet up or need a garage, workshop, tools or just a second set of hands.

I will definitely remember that man. You're the closest member I think besides a fella that lives in the same neighborhood as me. Not a lot of runners up here. Tons of heeps.
 
[MENTION=98735]3rzrunner[/MENTION], I am so envious of your stock 4.56 gears and e-locker! Very nice runner. Can we see more pics?
 
[MENTION=102168]owyheerat[/MENTION] Thanks! here's a few more, sorry for the crappy quality... Next mod, Running board delete when I find the front mudflaps!

RPM's ???

All naturally aspirated 3RZ's, how many RPM's does your truck rev at idle? I'm assuming SC'd or turbo motors rev differently...just guessing.

Thanks

11-1300 here, depending on temperature. Any lower and it gets pretty rough and lumpy.
