I paid $120 to have my front windows done with llumar ceramic tint. To do the rears, they said it should be around $215 and $180 to do the windshield. This is from signature tinting in costs Mesa. They offer non ceramic as well for less.

Posted over in the 5th gen forum but thought it was applicable here too:
Went out to the desert and lost the bolt which holds the rear shock absorber on the mount. The ball of the shock mount was caught between the mount, and the rim of the wheel (you can see how tore up the rim is there). Had to remove the tire to get it un-wedged, and put back on the mount. A few zip ties later, i was on my way home. Thats what i get for not checking the torque on my suspension ever. Lesson learned. Also will be adding bailing wire to my toolkit, as i would feel more comfortable with that over zip ties for this.
New bolt, and shock absorber on the way and should be here Tomorrow.

The picture isn't working for some reason.
I paint "witness marks" on all suspension bolts on my motorcycles, going to start doing that on my 4Runner too. For bolts like the lower shock bolt, I'll just make the witness marks at 12 o'clock. That way I'll be able to easily and quickly verify no bolts are loosening up.

A snow run sounds great. Not sure I can roll on Sat though, but Sun I'm in. Trying to test out a new winch. Big Bear is supposed to get a few inches Fri and Sat.

There's two different groups from TW going out. One is going up Burns from Pioneer Town and doing mostly 2wd (4wd in the snow) stuff.
The other group is running Crab Flats to White Mountain, then down the other side to Gold Mountain depending on road conditions.

Why do you have 35" tires and a 78" spare?
Haha JK, it looks huge though.

Yeah we ran out of time. Cam tabs took up almost 4 hours. Holder was more important than the recovery points for me.
