I am about to do an overhaul on my runner and get it ready for some summertime trails up here in the PNW, and am curious if anyone can tell me the difference between the OME nitrochargers and the nitrocharger sports? I know they have been engineered differently, but has anyone actually got the sports on their rigs with experience?
All of this comes down to the fact that I am about to lift my 4runner with an OME setup and am trying to decide if I want to go for the ARB bumper with a Superwinch EP9 mounted to it. Obviously, if I add the extra weight to the front, I need to get the right OME components installed at the same time. I was told I should consider either the light duty setup if no bumper, or the medium with bumper and winch. Does that sound about right? (I really want a warn winch, but that would be out of my current budget. I also would like the Icon suspension, but that too is out of budget unless I really trim back the number of mods I am going to do for this summer.)
The alternative is to forego the ARB Bumper and go with a front grill-mounted lightbar and throw on some PIAAs or something. I've seen some seriously thrashed front bumpers from the gnarly trail conditions around here, and just wanna be as hassle-free as I can off-road. When off-roading with my brothers jeep last year we came up on loads of overgrown, dried up nasty brush and it scored the crap out of his panels. I'm fully expecting to take some hits, but the less wear and tear, the happier the wife will be.
:
My intention is to stick to the fairly easy/moderate trails, but with the weather we get up here, you never know exactly what the conditions on the trails are likely to be one day from the next.
Lastly, I've been searching the forums, google, online parts stores, etc - and cannot find, for the life of me, a place that either lists or sells the little pieces of trim that go under the 2006+ 4runner headlight housings. Y'know, the body colored bit that bolts on right under the light itself on the front of the rig. I know there was a thread a long time ago where someone listed a place to buy these, I thought it was burtman industries or someplace, but when i check out the site they're not up there anymore. Any ideas where one can buy these and perhaps buy them already painted? Down the road I would like to swap headlight housings and throw in some HIDs.
Any advice or sharing of experience would be much appreciated. I thank you all for your time and look forward to, perhaps, seeing some of you on the trails this summer.
