Parked it...frame is gone....I do have a brand new rear offroad bumper for sale for a 3rd gen though.



Interested...

No more running boards!

Pulled off the stock running boards and attempted to clean the power steering fluid using a trick with a turkey baster I read somewhere. I am really happy with the look of the truck without those things
 
Put some heated Corbeau Sportline RRS seats in today. Needed a break from installing my new JDM motor.
Hey man. How are those comfort wise. I'm looking into some new seats as my leather ones are shot, and not that comfortable anyways.

I don't have any long drives in them since I just got my 4Runner running again, but I have sat in them a lot while working on the interior. Compared to the Recaro Sport seats I had in my last vehicle they are way more comfortable. They have much better lumbar support. The lower seat bottom bolsters aren't too high so it's still easy to get in and out while the upper bolsters are very supportive. The cushioning is firm but in a good way. I'm 6' 150lbs with a 29" waist and mountain biker quads to give you an idea. I'd say they'd be comfortable without being to tight up to a 34, maybe 36 waist.

I was originally going to go with the LG1, but Low Range Off-road had an awesome sale price on these making them cheaper. The seat heaters are super easy to wire up and paying the extra $50 per seat to have Corbeau install the elements in the seats is well worth it. I hate messing with hog rings.

Did the Tundra brake upgrade on the passenger side today. Got to the drivers side and the threads in the calipers for the brake line was defective and ruined the threads on the factory brake line. I'm returning the caliper tomorrow in exchange for a new one and getting a new brake line.

that looks good. i have been thinking about doing something like this on mine. but i am really bad with wiring :shrug:

i basically learned how to wire things by doing this project, starting just like you. now i'm more confident in future projects, plus i have a bunch of connectors, t-tap, shrink wrap left over. one thing i wanted to try and solder it, but gave up after sucking at it. check out my build thread for more pics of how i connected them.
 
Cleaned IAC and found this

Hi, I am new here, I don't have enough posts yet to start my own thread, so I will post my question here if that's ok. Any idea what this yellow plastic piece is in my IAC? My idle was running at 1500 RPM after I cleaned the throttle body. I took the idle valve off and found the plastic piece wedged under the valve. I fished it out for the photo. I believe it came from inside the valve assembly.

Finished my tundra brake upgrade finally. After returning the defective caliper for a new on they gave me a passenger side caliper when I needed the drivers side. Exchanged them and two quick coats of black spray paint and bleeding the lines I'm good to go. Took about 24 hrs to complete with the set backs but can easily be done in 2-3 hours.
