What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Any wobble at speed with your spacers?
I installed mine yesterday and now I have a wobble between 50-60mph.
Wondering if a wheel balance may be in order.

If using Spidertrax, just make sure your mating surfaces are clean as a whistle. Brake Rotor/Hub, SpiderTrax (both sides) and the inside mating surface of the wheels. Doesn't take much (a mm or so of debris) to end up with a noticeable wobble...

Additionally, if your wheels aren't hub-centric (lots of aftermarket wheels aren't), you might need different style acorn lug nuts (would likely be the case with or without the Spidertrax).

If not using Spidertrax spacers (a different brand that isn't hub-centric), you might need acorn style nuts to attach the spacers to the truck.

I also can't stand a wobbly ride :)

:cool:
 
Took Winching Course

Took vehicle recovery course from Badlands Off-road Adventures. Spent the day with Tom Severin learning safety principles and techniques of winching. I highly recommend the course, as winching can be dangerous if not done correctly. Also, had a chance to use my Pull-Pal, it is amazing to see how it digs in.

Not today, but last night! Great turnout for the Atlanta 4runners monthly Hooters meet! Also had TWO TRD pro's come out! One 4runner and one Taco (which was manual!)







 
I went to Lowe's and bought a new lawn mower.

You can't go wrong with the sliding deck tray. I hated it at first, but I now call it my "Costco" tray.

Got a little muddy exploring random truck trails off the roads around my house. Also, note that I got my lights mounted and wired up.

Washed off Dirty Harry and my adjustable rear track bar came in this morning.

Ok. I'll have to take the fronts off and give them the once over. I'm confident it's one or both of the fronts as the wobble only comes through the steering wheel and isn't felt through the rest of the truck.
The rims are the stock TURD PRO rims.
Thanks for the help!
 
Did some grinding.

Yeah it looks ugly but I painted it black so you can't see it. Should take care of most my rubbing up front.
