They'll give you credit if you buy from them. Go with Odysey or whatever, it is free money.
What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Call Sears corporate if need be. Hit '0' a bunch of times to get through the automated BS
I got a full refund in no time flat. Paid for everything but $54 on my new Northstar.

Thanks for that... I had the number ready... :madgrin:
Well 3 hours! later I got back $50 more than I paid for in, the catch? LOL Almost the least desirable gift card one could imagine... ugh $270 in Sears Auto credit (they have nothing I want and what they do, a set of Goodyear MTR's, I would not buy from them), if I am lucky this will work at regular Sears? Anyone? Or anyone know how to get more desirable gift cards or cash in exchange?
Okki I went to the only shop in town that sells Northstar, they had no AGM31's, 3-6 weeks and $370! I was suspicious they had Odysseys Marines on sale for %15 off, with a 4 no question year warranty. If this one fails, I will wait for the Northstar.

C4 Fab Tank Skid
Bolted up the C4 Fab tank skid today. Had to use some hillbilly ingenuity since I don't have a floor jack or stands yet. lol Worked out just fine.
However despite following the install instructions and checking clearance throughout, when I finally tightened the last three bolts on the drivers side it tweeked the skid so that the side wall is contacting the tank about 2" forward of the drivers side rear L bracket. I loosened all the bolts and pulled the skid to that side but it still rubs. I will have to have my brother come over and push on the passenger side of the skid while I tighten the bolts to see if it will clear. If not I will put some plastic shims in between.
It's a solid skid and I am pleased with it but tolerances are small and the metal will twist as it wants so maybe a little more space will eliminate this? Maybe [MENTION=131444]C4 Fabrication[/MENTION] could make it about a 1/4" wider.
I am looking forward to correcting this so I can go out and drag it over some rocks.

Did some light wheeling with my sister in-law & her JKU out at Sunflower/Sycamore creek. It's an awesome trail that takes you to the trailhead of AZT which is a massive trail that spans across AZ & UT and others. There is actually an active wild fire across the hwy from where we were at which is really sad but seems so common anymore. You can see the smoke hovering low in the mountains in some of the pics.

We had one other customer deal with this same issue. He ended up swapping the bracket near the driveline over to the other side of the fuel tank skid where the bracket bolts to the skid. This helped push the skid over to the driver side to eliminate the contact area.

I am going to try these solutions posted here: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/2476253-post78.html
My brother is coming over to push on the passenger side of the skid while I re-tighten the frame rail bots. I had clearance before tightening them down. They tweaked the skid over. I'm sure I will get it eventually. Thanks.

Success ! With my brothers help I lowered the skid down on the brackets and with him pushing on the passenger side I re-tightened the bolts and we got clearance all the way around.
Now I can attempt a narrow, rocky mountain trail I've been dying to get into all summer.
