Very cool, I'm actually in Overland Park, 97th and Lowell approximately.

One thing that turned me onto the 4Runner was the ability to get mods for reasonable prices, modding the Volvo was just ridiculous. Lowering springs, plus install was $1200. It has the 4C suspension, so anything you do to it, you have to have it recalibrated or it'll throw all kinds of codes and crap. It was a REAL pain in the a**.

Thanks for the tip on the Navigation unit, I'll look that up now.

Wait, zstampe, I just read your post again, your name is Zach and you are a Husker fan?? What a coincidence, I'm Zack and am also a Husker fan, UNL Graduate 2000, B.S. in Construction Management.

Ha, very small world. Should be a fun game to watch tomorrow night too.

Justin, the guy that is selling you the mats, is coming over to my place tomorrow and we are doing some mods, and possibly painting his fj wheels. You're more than welcome to drop by and have a cold beer and see what our lift setups look like etc.

Yeah, we were emailing back and forth last night, I am planning on stopping by and chatting. I can't stay long, my 2 year old daughter is hanging around with me all day tomorrow, but I am looking forward to checking out your setups to get some ideas! :cheers:

I just bought my 4Runner a few weeks ago and I also had an S60 (definitely not as BA as yours, had the 1.6). I also loved that car, wish I had some where at my house to park it and I would've kept it. I felt the same pain with the error codes in that damn in dash display. Took me 2 weeks, 4 bulbs, and a replaced bulb housing just to get the damn turn signal to quit yelling at me every time I activated it!

Congrats that is a sweet runner you've got there!

Yeah, add on a car that was not produced for long, was totally different than any other Volvo and that 4C and you understand my frustrations. Awesome car, but fragile and expensive to repair.

Sounds good man!

Can you post up another pic the same as your first one now that the running boards are off?

I would like to see a before & after comparison. I'm thinking of possibly removing them as well so curious what it looks like.

Here you go.
