What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

No, this is a spacer kit for your suspension, so it's like putting taller suspension in without the cost... this is THE cheapest suspension lift you can find. the ride will be close to the same... I'm not positive, but you 'might' have to replace the rear shocks from the extra height, the front stays the same... you can do monroe shocks from 0'riely's for $25 each for a land cruiser.

a body lift would require a steering lift, which most/all body lifts come with.

If you want you could do a 1inch body lift also, getting a net 3.5 inch lift, doing this might clear you without much pounding.


Awesome I'm honestly so grateful for you right now lol, I never even knew this existed and it's perfect for my situation. So if I get the spacer kit and Monroe Land cruiser rear shocks i should be fine? I'm leaning towards doing lc shocks in the rear, when I do this will I need to modify anything? I was reading through the reviews and the spacer kit is missing bump stops and shock boots, do these usually come with the shocks if I was to replace them?

Changed the engine oil, Mobil 1 5W-30 and tried adding some Lucas Synthetic Oil Stabilizer to see if it would quiet the Toyota tick I've got.

I also swapped out my stock rear sway bar end-links with a pair of aftermarket front end-links that I had kicking around.
 
Replaced my OME 890s with 891s, OME Nitros with Icon v2, added Lotus skids. The rear seems softer, but I only got about 1/2" additional lift (I was hoping for a bit more as I'm trying to get my back end leveled when I have my RTT on)


 
I replaced my Walbro 190 fuel pump with a Denso 195130-3360 out of an EVO 8.

So far so good... My fuel trims under boost seem very close to what they were before, and it's SILENT. Even when my tank had about 1 gallon of fuel left in it I could hardly hear it.
 
Yep I am going to run them off a amp. What method did you mount your tweeters? Thanks [emoji450][emoji869]
The tweeters were a straight swap with the factory tweeters on the door. IIRC, I just screwed them into the same mounts and that was that. I've been meaning to grab a spare cover and see if I can't retrofit in the adjustable mount they come with, but I haven't gotten around to it.

BTW, there's a pretty clean way to mount the crossovers on the back of the speaker panel:

There's more of a write-up in my build thread if the picture isn't self explanatory. :)
 
Ran the Wi-Fi engine code scanner using Torque Pro, to pull the code that caused the check engine light last week. Then cleared the code from the ecu so I can see if the problem persists.

Thanks for the info !:thumb:
 
New factory Jack

When I bought my 01 4runner, it did not come with the factory jack and tool kit. I ordered the jack and tools and they came in today. Anyone have a picture of how they are stored in the factory location?

Under passenger side rear seat. Jack is expanded until it doesn't rattle. Otherwise it all clips in/rests in pretty self explanatory positions there. I'd take a picture but I'm lazy.
