Got new tires, 285 70 17 km2's, installed spidertrax Spacers on all 4 and Toytech rear bump stop extentions.

Don't mind my rusty drums.

After lots of work, my body hurts, but my 4Runner stops 1000% better

Finally got a picture of the Kenwood stereo and subwoofer. Then mounted my Uniden 510 CB Radio on the back of the center console. I used the existing holes for the backseat drink holder. I went with a K30 magnetic mount antenna.

Wholly crap, Did you post earlier as to what happened for the rear brakes to end up in that predicament? I have seen trailer brakes look like that due to the grease dust seal not working properly.
 
Shrockworks rear bumper ordered to go with my AOR front plate on order.

Got the rear lift installed, except sway bar end links. Going to button that up tonight. Tomorrow fix o-ring and leaking elbow on the 3rz, then put the front suspension completely back together. Everything arrived for that.

SPC arms, new cv axles, new oem lbj/itre/otre, Tundra brakes and zinc rotors, Bilsteins an OME springs I already assembled. Then once brakes are bled, antifreeze is flushed with new Toyota coolant, and clutch is bled properly, go for the first drive hopefully.

Well, the metal grinding noise when stopping was indicating worn shoes. The removal of the driver side drum, the broken one, was a chore. The adjuster had seized all the way extended and I could not get the shoes to retract. That lead to the drum not wanting to release. I had to get physical to access the shoes.
The greasy passenger side is a combination of worn shoes and a leaking axle seal. Really no big deal just a horrendous mess to clean before installing all new parts.
Funny thing, as worn as they were, I still had a great brake pedal.

Added a pair of LED Headlights. Mixed emotions so far but here they are. Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics.

Mixed emotions because I feel like it's wrong that theyre so bright. I think I'm just not used to super bright headlights and I may need to point them out a little more.

2x 120W 12000LM CREE LED HEADLIGHT BULBS H4 HB2 9003 6000K WHITE HIGH LOW BEAM | eBay

The more you point them out the more they will blind people. The 6000k seems a little too hot and no cut off makes them seem bright. Wife didnt want to drive it so I had to let them go.

True but I drove from San Jose to Napa on Sunday night and it seemed like everyone had super bright headlights.
I'm yet to get flashed also
I like them now I just need to get the fogs to match
