Bought a stock 2001 Sport two weeks ago and...

Just a small update on the tires.

Last full tank with my 265/75-16 E-load BFG AT's was 13.9 mpgs mixed driving.

Last full tank with my 265/75/16 C-load Duratracs was 17.4 mpgs mixed driving.

Hmmm interesting. I get roughly the same on my 285s load-E highway is normally 19-20 and mixed it 16-17
 
Lol. I was on the market for some, but decided I actually like the looks of them without the caps.


I'll admit, they don't look bad without. I love these LC wheels so much, I wish I just mounted my snows on my 5 Stars and ran the LC wheels on the KM2s. Oh well, probably going with the SCS F5's for next summer.
 
Here's the pic:

If I had to do it over, I would just make the first groove cut and instead of making the second lower cut (to make it over the pinch weld) I would have just cut a vertical notch. It would have made it look a lot cleaner. Does that make sense?

I need these, where did you get them from??
 
Just a small update. Got kind of tired of the noise of the 14" Magnaflow due to more hill driving, so ended up swapping it out for an 18" one

Sorry [MENTION=25058]ChildrenOfBodom[/MENTION] for sticking with Magnaflow. I've been going to a local muffler shop since high school and if I (or any of my friends who go to him) have issues with any exhaust be it Magnaflow or Flowmaster, he'll swap it out on the spot.
 
Another small update. Finally got around to installing a switch for the antenna. Now I can lower the antenna when it's not needed and still listen to music. Modification will probably be for not here as I think I'm going to get a new unit sometime soon and I know most of the current units will drop the antenna when the radio is not on.

Another small update. Decided that I had enough of being a poser with the Hilux emblems. Spoke to my friend who gave them to me to get her blessings before removing them. Was thinking of going back to the stock emblems, but kinda like the clean look. Will probably stick with this for a while and see how I like it. Easy enough to add them on later.

So, that means I have a set of Hilux emblems if anyone is interested. Will probably put them up for sale in the classified section sometime soon.

Do you by chance have a parts number for your roof racks? My old 4runner had the same ones, just didn't transfer them over then my brother got it and can't find a number.
