Not today, but yesterday I finished installing my 5100 bilstein suspension..
1.75 F or 3rd slot..and 5100 with 1.5" spring spacer on the rear..i like the rake so it evens out when my kids are in the back seat

Replaced my front coilover spherical bearings, again, as they started sounding like a 1970s garbage truck. I think that is number 6 or 7, so far. Granted, it only takes about an hour with air tools, 20 ton press, and having done it a half dozen times already.

Just represent with class and from what I see the longer you are on the forum you need to leave snarky comments........sarcasm is good, I like this crowd.
And just as importantly...Go Ducks! That is all...

Looks good. What size are your tires? I noticed a lot of guys use the spacers. Why not just use the rear 5100 for the extra height, it's also adjustable isn't it?

This weekend I wrapped my bumper covers in 3M Black Metallic Brushed Metal Vinyl wrap. It took way longer than I anticipated but it came out OK in the end. Tonight I also installed my 5K HID lights.
Tomorrow night I will replace the fog lights with 6K LEDs. It has been way too hot the last few weeks to do anything during the day so I’m stuck to working on my 4R at night.

Stock size, 265/70/17 cooper tires..might sell them and get 275/70s
The fronts are adjustable but the rears are not..i will get some OME springs for the rear but still searching which set is perfect.

Put on CarPro CQuartz UK coating. The entire process was wayyyy easier than expected. Can't believe the dealership charges $800 for this! :brick:

Yeah I live in Roseville. Our trucks are pretty similar too.
Do you do any wheeling?

Nice. I am dying to do some wheeling but since I got the 4runner in September I have been too busy get it into some dirt. I really want to go out to priary city and check out the park.
I did manage to do a little donut at the fountains yesterday in the dirt overflow parking. That has been the extent of my fun. It would be great to do some wheeling with another 4runner owner.
