Running Boards

Hey guys I just recently took my running boards off my 2001 4Runner. Should I keep them? Or sell them? and what price should I sell them for if I were to sell them? They are in pretty good shape too.

Put gas in it sooner than usual...something is affecting my mileage to the point where I've lost at least 30 miles range. I'll change the spark plugs and wires + oil change this weekend, but before all of that I'll run combustion chamber cleaner or plain water through a vacuum line to clean the combustion chambers and valves. Hope this restores my mileage.

Finished up my Satoshi Grill today. I'll be mounting it tomorrow after everything's had some time to cure and harden. Pictures can be seen in my build thread Here.
 
Blue Wire mod complete, and finished the center console LED conversion. Also got my boost gauge wired for the SC install next week! Also changed the oil in the new Corolla that my Fiance and I picked up. That thing is in amazing shape!
 
Damn! What are the specs on that rig?


Well it's got an 02 Tacoma rear axle, 83 front axle. No drive shaft to front as the diff is on the wrong side, the guy that built it just used what he had laying around.

The front end is not right something sounds like a fisher price corn popper. Haha.

So I'm here to figure out what axle would best suit this truck so I can get it right for my buddy. He is in Washington state on work for 6 months.
 
Almost done with interior lights

I 'fixed' the map lights that have not turned on since I got the 4Runner a few weeks ago. I'm guessing it was just a loose connection, because taking down the little console and reseating the connector did it. The LEDs in there are really bright. Let there be light!

Also, does anyone know what this little plastic piece is? It fits in one of two places in the sunglasses case, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is for.

Its kind of hard to explain but its for your garage door remote.

Velcro your garage door opener to the top and line it up with the nipple on the sunglass holder side. youll notice that you can push in the sunglass holder up a bit which will push the nipple into the garage door remote button.

Ah, totally makes sense. I don't have one so I don't think I would have figured that out. Thanks!
 
Weather Tech floor liners front and rear.

Nice. I love mine. Hope you enjoy yours too. :yo:

On topic of the thread question... What did I do? I noticed this morning on the drive in to work that at 30-40 mph I have a weird squeak coming from the passenger front wheel area. I think it's only when I brake.. and then it goes away once under 30 mph.. but I'll do some more listening on my drive home today. :redbrick: I hate random moving sounds. So hard to replicate and diagnose..
 
Painted the factory skid plates gloss black. Would rather have flat or satin, but I already had half a can of gloss on hand that I needed to use up. They're nice and shiny now. May be getting flat paint after I see them on the runner.
