JWaldz '99 Adventure Build - Dual Locked | Geared | Mid-Travel | 35s | Armored

I'm like a kid waiting for the candy store to open, I can't wait for 5:00 to get here lol

I'll also be putting the coilovers on today, replacing a cv, and cutting down the ends of the NEW sliders (:()

Also got to SAW's on tonight and replaced a cv axle. I can now replace a cv axle in a garage in under 20 min :D

I'll get some better pics in the morning.. I'm beat. BTW, will be making a fs ad for the ome/bilstein setup I had later. I need to clean them up and estimate a sale price first.


Next on the list is install my blue sea fuse block and save up for some front UCA's.

very nice, well played!
 
The new shoes look awesome! Just out of curiosity, what do you do for a spare (or do you even have one)?

And how in the world can you replace a CV in under 20 minutes? That just doesn't seem possible.
 
Thanks for the comments everyone

Thanks. I kept the best one of the old tires and will be mounting it on the black steel wheel off the cheesy old original spare I sold a while back. I'll just have to keep it in the back somewhere..

As for the cv. I bought a milwaukee cordless impact wrench recently that takes all the bolts and nuts off in seconds. I also happened to buy a crow bar that pops the cv axle out in one swift move, no more fighting it :D
 
Well done Ark; looks awesome! I agree, the CV's are intimidating initially but they really are made to be swapped out quickly with the right tools. Can be done on the trail pretty easily if you go prepared.
 
Looks great brother

If you are interested, I will buy Just the shocks from the front, if the price is right!

Check out the for sale thread in the classifieds and you'll see why I can't, sorry!

Thanks for comments everyone. The tires so far have been great. It poured its ass off tonight and they performed very well.

Been long over due.. The offroading has taken it's toll on different suspension parts. I got around to installing new front sway bar bushings. The comparison is unreal but I doubt I'll be able to tell much difference. Piece of mind though. Next is otre's and lbjs.

I also got my 30" led bar all buttoned up. This thing is seriously badass, pics don't do it justice. I also removed the Hellas and old led light bar. Don't really need them anymore lol.

First time I changed one took me just under 30 in the driveway. I can see under 20 mins fairly easy. Provided there are no hang ups of course.

Wow it must feel 1000x better with those new bushings! Its the little things that make the big differences, huh?

Im loving the new tires and coilovers! Really quality parts on this awesome truck!

Honestly, I can't tell lol :D But it's peace of mind. I debated front sway quick disco's to save the bushings when I go offroad, who knows. Next are the inner/outer ball joints and lbj's. That's my next POM I'm trying to achieve lol.

Thanks, it does ride 1000X better too :thumb3:
 
ARKRWLR,

who made the led bar?

Totron Lights - LED Light Bars, LED Work Lights, HID Work Lights, HID Driving Lights, Off-road Lights


Not the absolute best but I have a friend that's a dealer and I get them for cost. They are pretty good lights though with a nice lumen rating. The 30" is 7200 lumens I think. The clear cover is the same ballistic material Rigid uses. They just introduced CREE LED's (which is the one I have). What I really like is the mounting adapters. They move on a rail built in on the housing and slide to wherever you're mounting holes are. Perfect for the tabs on my bumper and slender (single row) enough to not block my vision with anything.
 
which model did you get? was it pretty simple to install?

cause I would like to have one mounted underneath the Piaa's for an stealth look.
 
Here's the link to the model I got 30" SR Series

They are very easy to mount and from what I can tell pretty solid.

I looked through your entire build thread and evidently you don't like taking pictures of your 4Runner from the front lol. I was trying to get an idea of where you would be mounting it. Even if you have to drill holes it should be fine, you can put the mounting adapters virtually anywhere. Just as long as it lines up with the rails on the housing and the light physically fits in it's location. That mounting style is only with the SR series though. What size and model would you be wanting. I can see if my buddy has one and get you a price.
