Took the 4Runner out for a small trip south of the border to Massena NY to pickup my next upgrade, a lift kit. Should be installed in the next few weeks. Bye bye nose dive.

Getting prepared for my SS bumper and led pods. Also grabbed the Rago relay holder. Saw a few other ways to do this on the Tacoma forums but this was the simplest and it's cost effective. The ring connectors are capped with solder just to be sure.

Yeah, that's probably what I'll do.
Is it mounted directly to the tray or do you have something underneath?
For the back i looped it underneath the tray. There's a bar. I piggy backed the straps to make it longer

Came back from 1400mile trip, the fridge never moved around. Stayed running for 2days, stock battery in 100+ weather.

Bandi was busy with the influx of orders, so I made a MObi compressor mount myself, 11g steel, speed holes all over it, I even got to lighten the oem nuts/bolts cup for the top two 6mm bolts! I also re tapped the solenoid threads to usa 1/8"(British threads area one thread less per inch FYI) also remoted air intake to inside the cabin via perfect size firewall hole directly infront of the compressor. Win! I've already drilled, JB welded, molex plugged, and made a whip from the center console area to drivers rats nest of wires area.......I need to have a wiring party

Installed Lift:

IMG_20170617_175739_163.jpg~original


Fox 2.5" Extended Travel Coilovers and Total Chaos UCAs up front
Icon 2" Lift Springs and Fox 2.0" shock absorbers in the rear.

Rides a bit firmer, which is welcome given how sloppy the stock suspension is.

Sitting at 23" front, 24" rear (center hub to fender) both sides...didn't measure before but based on what I've seen from others this is just about 3", maybe a tad more. CVs look fine, no rubbing of the boot ribs.

285/70 Nitto Trail Grapplers on order, should be here any day :rockon:

Father's Day Weekend Mod

After taking my Dad to a baseball game where we both had more than enough beers, we came home and installed the ARB twin compressor with the Bandi World mount. As always we had more beers while installing the compressor making for a fun Father's day where we saw a baseball game and then worked on a car.
