Just cleaned her up a bit on the inside.
But I also installed a set of LED headlights on my wife's accord. The same ones I got off of [MENTION=50342]JayRolla[/MENTION] and these things are amazing.
I know some of you like to adjust your headlights but there's no need.
Headlights should be pointed down and to the right witch is how they come from the factory.
Why you ask.
Because of the geniuses that adjust there headlights and are now shining directly in your eyes, you can look off to your right and still see the white line your headlights are supposed to be pointing at.
I've had my LEDs in for a couple months now and have never had anyone flash me, the poor guys without tinted windows I pull up behind at a stop light at night don't really like it. But even with regular dim headlights they'd be in the same boat.
So if your thinking about getting LEDs do it. Just don't adjust your headlights to point straight at your garage door/the oncoming persons retinas, cause they're not meant to be.

Couldn't resist a sale price on some new meats. These are Goodyear Wrangler Authorities from Wally World. 265/75/R16 C load. They had been as high as $170 each but I got them for $124 each. Admittedly, sidewalls are on the thin side but for that price I figured why not. Baller on a budget, that's me.
This guy did a long term review and was happy with them.

My co-worker asked how they performed on the trails and I said, "I don't know, I don't want to get em dirty."

Love the meatiness of those tires. What kinda lift are you running?

Next time, get a Blackstone or other use oil analysis done - they you will KNOW whether the oil was still doing its job. Heck, you might be able to stretch to 10k intervals without worry if you know the oil is still good and you aren't wearing the engine...

Yeah they are pretty aggressive. I'm running Monroe quick struts/springs in the front and Moog talls in the back, basically a new but inexpensive 99 tall set up. They ride great, nice and soft. Overall I have 2 inches of lift from what I started with which is fine for my purposes, for now anyway.

What's really annoying is that I *have* a kit from Blackstone Labs... and I forgot about it until I read your comment. :redbrick:

I do this already and factored in my original cost of purchase also to see how things go over time. I always have some type of device on me so I keep my 4Runner stuff on my server and can access it anywhere (if i have service). I always perfer digital but my Dad has everything on paper for his rigs. I have been meaning to integrate this into my calendar to help remind me of records needing to be completed. How are you making sure you do future maintenance on your rig?
I have two things I'm going to attempt to do and I feel strongly that I could do both. The first is to take my Bluetooth TPMS devices to my phone with the program i'm working on. I'm also working on programming a bluetooth odb reader to incoproate my scan guage and everything else in an app similiar to i've seen people run. My Stereo supports it nautrally but I haven't found the SDK for my deck and don't want to break it, haha. MY thought for this was to have it ALL on my tablet since I normally have it anytime i'm out exploring and thats really when i need it most.

Nice! Looks like a good system. Incorporating OBDII data into maintenance considerations can be helpful! I am a new owner (8 months) so I am still trying to figure things out and what things need to be replaced soon. I am not done recording all of the records I have. After I do that, I will make a separate column on the spreadsheet of when the specific item needs to be replaced next.

Relocated stock center console switches to the left side of the dash, since I just put in a 99+ center console.
