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

I think I'm gonna head there sooner or later to see if they can get my duratracs balanced.. 2 places haven't been able so far. (Both a friend w his Tacoma and I have vibrations)

Definitely take it to High Tech, Bobby will first rub it in, because he does not like the Goodyear's and then fix your problem. LOL
 
Dropped my truck off at High-Tech Auto and Truck Center in Chantilly, VA, to have my 4 bilstein 5100s installed (set to .85 up front) and new tires--Goodyear Silent Armors 265/70/17 (stock). Met Bobby.
Pretty psyched to pick it up tonight and will get a pic or two posted.

Wait you and me pulled in the same time, when i pulled in and then Bobby saw you, he asked me if i bough another 4Runner behind me, why didn't you say hi, i did not know you are a member here.
 
This happened earlier today...

Went back to dealer as soon as I found out about the customizable settings here to program my new 2 days old sr5 so I can roll all windows down and moon roof with the remote. Very useful in Florida summer. Now if only I can convince the wife to fund the remote start:guitar3:

yea i've heard sometime's you have to dismount the tire and move it around to balance out the rim AND tire.. so maybe that's what it needs

Yep, didn't know you were a TR4 guy until Bobby told me (of course I should have assumed) just before I left. Didn't mean to be rude, just was focused on getting my paperwork done, picking up my loaner car, and hustling in to work in the lovely DC traffic. Your truck is killer, BTW.

Here's mine with tires and Bilsteins--loving it so far. Nice and subtle, but definitely can see the lift up front--excellent ride quality.

My little trip to the OBX. We stayed in Kitty Hawk but spent most of our time up in Corolla on the beach where our friends stayed. Had some fun in the sand. I wish i had a video or at least a photo of the enormously deep water crossing back in the neighborhood. water came well up over the hood and up the windshield and waterfall-ed down the pass side window lol. On to the pictures...

I left Harvey at home as we took the v on vacation. I did pull him up close to the garage door to keep him shaded and put the windshield shades up. Hopefully the 18 year old girl watching our cat doesn't decide to joyride. lol
 
Finished installing and wiring my dual Viair 400 compressors. Hopefully get the tank and rest of the plumbing installed tomorrow. Looking forward to spending less time airing up.
 
My 'Runner and I shared a moment and shed a tear as I put my Tundra up for sale today. Best truck I've ever owned - I absolutely love it and really hate letting it go, but I drive it rarely and it makes sense to sell it while its still worth something. Plus, I can use the proceeds of the sale to fund the 'Runner build!
