I have a 2010 4Runner Trail, purchase last November. Just put on the Westin Step bars today. Instructions were not the greatest. Had to re-drill step bar mounting bracket holes because the bars were too low. Only had 8" of clearance, now I have 13" and they look better too. Just ordered the K&N CAI. I am getting 20 mpg City and 23 to 25 mpg Highway. This one is better than my 2003 Sport I had.

Tried to add pics but can't find proper way of doing it, any help would be appreciated.

Hi all, new owner of a 2011 Magnetic Grey with premium package. Been searching for a while, finally grabbed one off the lot. Love the color, love the truck so far.

what tint did you use?

 

[brockeverly]

what tint did you use?

5% over the rear stock tint, 20% in the front. I am unsure of the brand.

Sedona is awesome. We camp up north a lot, Sedona/Prescott is probably my favorite places to go.

I like the looks on all the tourists in the pink jeeps

Finally getting around to posting pics. I didn't do to much to it but its just the way I want it!

N-Fab step bars
Husky mats and cargo liner
Duratracs, stock size
White DRL's
Defiant short tube light bar with PIAA 520 ATP
Daystar switch for 520's
Rear wheel well storage
One red map light

I'm going to do a few more electrical mods (with help of course, I'm a nitwit.)

The only other stuff I may change someday is the exhaust to the side, and maybe even out the suspension.

Here's what it looked like just after I bought it and before I moved my stuff over from my '07 Sport-

Good looking rig! I really like your front light bar...was it an easy install and is it sturdy? I see you tight your kayaks to it...I travel with yaks a lot and this would be good. Also, does the bar give you different options where to mount the lights? I saw on the sight that you just specify 2 or 4 lights. Thanks!

 

[Kraeken]

Thanks! You would have to ask Defiant about light placement. I just specified how many and what kind of lights. I had one on my 4th gen too, and it was basically the same. They are great for tying down kayaks. Before I would have to tie them to the front recovery hooks, and the ropes would be rubbing the paint. Not anymore. However, it may not make much of a difference with shorter boats. These are 16.5 and 17 feet long.

 

[Tedstryker]

Great...think I am going to pull the trigger this week. So, did you get the lights from Defiant as well? Sorry for the questions. And the install - easy?

 

[Kraeken]

I got the lights from eBay. The bar installation was simple, just labor intensive. You will need a long socket wrench or breaker bar to loosen the bolts under the truck . But it bolts right on, no problems. And its rock solid- the lights do not wiggle one bit!

The PIAA lights were also pretty easy to install. The harness is already set up, you just have to connect everything where its supposed to go.

 

[Tedstryker]

Thanks for the info...looking forward to this much-needed mod!

Nice looking rig there, Kraeken. Even the duratracs in stock size really set it off. Great job!

 

[Kraeken]

Its absolutely amazing how those tires transform the look of the truck.

I've also thought about getting Mojave wheels someday, but I love the look of these stock wheels with the Duratracs!

 

[Airwolf]

Finally done... Well almost, but a good way there!

This is with OME 884/895E springs (3" in front and 2" rear), Bilstein shocks, Fuel 17x9 Throttle Wheels and Nitto Terra 285/70/17. No rubbing with the front fender lining moved forward about an inch. VERY HAPPY. It finally looks like an all terrain vechile, not a station wagon. I knew it could do it!

 

[Jay Rob]

Very nice. How's your milage? I'm sort of hesitant to lift mine too much. I just traded my 09 Tacoma which had a 4.5" RCD drop bracket suspension lift with 285's on it cause I was only getting 10-11 MPG. Definately don't want to be in that boat again.

 

[Airwolf]

Too early to tell. I went with "P" rated tires instead of "LT" hoping not to kill my MPG. Before the lift/bigger tires I was at 19.2 - 19.5 a tank, about 80%+ city mostly at 45mph, with very little stopping. I am keeping my fingers crossed I don't go too low...
