Finally got around to installing my amp and sub, integrating into the factory Entune system.

Exactly the look I am going for.

I see you mentioned you have the RevTek 432 kit w/ BFG K02 in 275/70. You run into any rubbing with that setup (I know the TRD wheels have a different offset than the stock trail wheels)? Wondering if you had to do any trimming.

Great looking truck...
 
Well, got lucky. Was going to wear down the factory Duelers and years from now, change over to KO2's.

Found a set of Terra Grappler take-offs from a Pro, for cheap on Craigs.

Yes, they're dirty, but they were in great shape, great price, and the shop that I had swap the rubbers even bought my old Duelers.

looks great! Have any shots of the tires with the whole truck in the picture? I'm leaning towards Grappler's with my stock trail rims.
 
Drove her home!!!

After much deliberation and back and forth, I settled on an Icon stage 2 with a rear track bar. Turns out it wasn't much more than a Bilstein 6112/5160 setup. Now i have a few weeks to read up on the install...
 
Well it wasn't my 4Runner but it was my brothers JK. Insane wind yesterday here on Long Island and my parents had a tree crash through their house. Everyone is ok! But the JK got it bad also!! It ended up starting and driving out of the driveway after they got the 20 Ton tree off of it! My brothers from the fire dept were there fast to shore up the house and secure it. I've responded to a lot of emergencies in my 14 years in the FD but never one at my families house!!

Holy carp! I'm glad everyone's ok.

Thanks!

Zero rub, no matter what. Lock to lock, forward and reverse, no issues. The ride is great and I'm super happy with how it turned out.
 
Over the past few days since I've bought her I've plasti-dipped the stock Off-Road rims black along with the front badge and replaced the front dome lights with some cheap knock off LED's... was expecting them to be dim but I can barely see in the truck at night they're so bright now!

WOW! That is a big tree. So thankful everyone is ok. If the Jeep is totaled talk him into a 4runner lol :guitar2:
 
Got my truck scrutinized by appraiser. He has never seen 5th gen here yet. But at the end he told me "If you will ever think about selling it, please let me know. This is the real SUV, all other cars here are just toys."
 
I removed the plasti dip that I painted on my front lower valence, the white just looks cleaner IMO. Annnnnnnnnnd I wired my single row light bar thanks to a friends help!


#allthelumens. CANT WAIT TO HIT SOME TRAILZ @ NITE. I love how clean

My rear bumper was scraped in a parking lot last weekend, the damage was only to the paint so I don't think I'd be able to get any insurance money for a CBI rear.. Went ahead and plasti dipped the lower portion of the bumper to see how it'll look.

I waited too long to remove the masking tape and some of the edges are less than pretty. First time using plasti dip and I didn't have a good experience, thinking I'm going to end up removing it.
