Post your LIFTED pix here!

I'm also enjoying the kings. The ride is just amazing. Everything settled in really well my first wheeling trip after the install.

The bushwackers are a cost-effective way for me to deal with my badly-warped fender flares.
As it happens, krown rust control really makes them warp badly. The price for all of the replacement plastic, plus painting, was almost twice the price of the bushwackers. I didn't think I'd like them, and I really second-guessed whether or not to color match them.... but I'm VERY happy with them. They took a decent amount of abuse on a narrow trail through the woods last weekend, and I'm very pleased with how they stood up to intermediate pinstriping.

Otherwise, I'm not really a bushwacker kinda guy. However; very impressed with the fit and finish.

Dirtking UCAs; very nice. Nice fk 1" uniballs.

Aligned very well. The technician was a real pro and took his time. It's driving better than ever before on the highway stretches. Straight as an arrow--- I guess I got used to the twitchiness before

2016 sr5 premium 4x4 in Texas

Just got this and immediately got the mods done at the dealer. Procomp 3" lift, front window tint (they're down in the photo)... Cross rails, HID headlights, LED fog lights, locator system. Gonna do more later. Love the sunroof, the back window down, the sound system, everything! Just drove it around some rough roads today and got it a bit muddy and had fun knowing I could take weird muddy, rough, rocky roads and explore with confidence! I REALLY LOVE MY 4RUNNER!!!!!

badass, man! how did the Krown treatment react with the fender plastic to make it warp, exactly? that seems super strange; must've been pissed. i always thought Krown was more like a Fluid Film type product... it's not offered anywhere here, but we're close enough to Canada (lot of Canadian tourists in season) that folks here are aware of it.

Good question;

The fender flares are an "L" shaped profile. The crown made the L change from a 90 degree angle to an oblique angle. The bottoms of the flares are attached with fasteners, so the tops pull away from the vehicle. I wound up spending a small fortune on various tapes and adhesion promoters, all new toyota clips that hold the fender flares on, etc. Generally the clips are enough to have the factory flares hold flush to the vehicle.

I had minimal success removing and cleaning the fender flares, using 3M ultra high bond tape with adhesion primer on both the flares and the fender. Prior to re-application I used a heat gun and a lot of masking tape to close the "L" the entire length of the flares..... it was a LOT of work. Unfortunately after a week it would pull off again, but very stressed from the UHB tape. Great way to piss away a saturday and $100 worth of clips and tape and liquids.

I noticed there was NO mention of this happening to anyone else on the forum. However there's lot of reading on the web about krown reacting with plastics. I've replaced door rubbers and stuff in the past, and I've seen what krown can do to them, so I wasn't very surprised. It is my understanding that Honda expressly recommends against krown for this very reason. 10 years and numerous Krown applications later, it was news to me.

Pics are before(right) and a week after a repair(left). Heartbreaking to say the least.

Here's mine so far. Rocking BOSS 3in lift with light racing UCA. Going to order stealth 6 wheels and kO2's. Just don't know to go gunmetal or burnt bronze for the wheels. Please ignore the lovely pod in the background lol.

2015 Metallic Gray Trail Premium

Picture 1...Bone Stock.
Pictures 2 & 3...Stock 265/70/17 Dunlops and 2.25/1.25 Front/Rear lift
Pictures 4 - 7...Finally....BFG All Terrains 275/70/17 "E" Rating with same 2.25/1.25 Front/Rear Lift
Weather Tech mats throughout

Held off buying the BFG's until I put 21,000 miles on the stock Dunlops (they probably had another 15,000 of life in them)...Discount Tire gave me $40/tire on trade, so BFGs were $160 after $40 trade-in allowance (+++road hazard, tax, fees, etc. etc.).

The 275's are just right with my rather "tame" lift. 285's would be my choice with a 3" lift. Already got in rain an mud tonight. Very happy with ride and handling thus far. No perceived loss in acceleration. Not enough miles to know if gas mileage affected.

What lift are you running? Looks good!
