Installed brand new running boards from a Pro! Been wanting to do this since I got the 4runner.

And your rockers disappeared.

Got these JBA UCAs installed over the weekend. I was expecting to remove a bunch of parts for clearance but ended not having to do anything except for the ABS brackets along the arms and knuckle for slack. My UCA bolt (2019) didn't have the washer integrated and there was plenty of room to work with. Having a second person made it super easy to pivot and guide the bolt.

Caster is at 3.5 after alignment w/ plenty of adjustment. Prior to this I was hovering around 2 on stock UCAs w/ Bilstein 6112s at the 6/4 circlip location.

Derp...Rims....sorry....bad time when I last posted. Hubby was fighting cancer. He has since died. My head wasn't in the right place. The 4Runner was the last thing he bought. He loved it.

Yes, Runtime is right, rims...TRD Pro rims. I'm not a suspension person. I owned a Mustang before this (and still do...I'm a muscle car person). The only reason I've kept the 4Runner is Hubby asked me to do so before he died. With time I've grown to love it. Named it Idris.

TRD Pro Rims...are they possible on this ridic 20" set up the Limited has...what would need to be changed or modded. Again, total newbie at this. It is also a 4x4. If y'all can point me to the right threads...advice...whatever...I'd greatly appreciate it.

Actually, rims is incorrect. The rim is the very outer edge of the wheel assembly where the tire bead seats. The entire assembly is called a wheel, but some aftermarket fanbois call any non OE wheel a "rim" as in "Yo, look at my new rimz".

Sorry to hear about your husband. It'll take a while for things to start feeling "normal" again (and COViD-19 doesn't help), but hang in there.

Was your old front bumper chrome bits just plasti-dipped? IF wrapped, I may be interested in them. And did you source the new front end from dealerships ($$$) or did you end up buying used?

Still the long term plan for me to do this conversion.

I have question regarding limited door handles. AFAIK, all limited's come with chrome door handles w/ smart key. so i'm in the market of painting my oem door handles and even entertained the idea of buying an extra set and painting them body match color. in my case, blizzard pearl. look what i found on the toyota site.

according to this, they come pre-painted in pearl white but my 4runner is blizzard pearl. questions:

Lock & Hardware for 2019 Toyota 4Runner | Toyota Parts

1. is blizzard pearl and pearl white the same?

2. are these really sold pre-painted? if so, why would they have a pre-painted pearl white?

3. if i look closely, toyota appears to have all the colors available.

is this real???

Interested in this as well I have a wrap appointment Jun 3 and was wondering what I was going to do about the handles. I’d prefer them wrapped so it matched the wrap or even Plasti dip if they matched the wrap better. What did everyone else do for the handles mines a 19 with smart key

currently mine is still chrome. so, i ordered one of these painted "pearl white" eventhough my truck is "blizzard pearl" let's see what arrives.



i know a few guys painted theirs and or got the black plastic stick on covers.

If you use Bam Wholesale to look at the same parts, it specifically says the colored ones are for non-smart key and the chrome are for smart key.

I ended up painting mine.

Looking for some inspiration for my LE mod, mind posting pics of your modded LE? Anything from just wheels and tires to rims to whole front end changes are great. Thanks!

My son and I were busy giving our 2010 a facelift....

My main point was.. why would there even be a pearl white painted handle ? it’s only a limited color and comes only in chrome. Unlike other limited colors, you can get an Sr5 in same color except pearl white aka blizzard pearl.

I already have smart key handles, I just want to change the outer portions with oem painted handles.

I knew exactly what you wanted to do. It's not going to work. I hope I am wrong but I would bet money when you get that handle, it will be missing the cutout on the reverse for the smart key part. That's why it says for non-smart key on Bam.

What is “cutout on the reverse for the smart key part”

I just want to see if it can be retrofitted

I’m thinking the chrome parts come off from the touch sensor.
