Level 8 mk6

New guy, 3rd 4Runner I’ve owned, just got this ‘99 SR5 4x4 a couple of months ago and just installed some new Level 8 MKS wheels today. Makes the truck look so much better IMO. Thoughts?

Ordered a pair of Koyo rear axle bearings and should receive them Friday

I'll be able to hit all the speed bumps at the mall as hard as I want

Ha! Thanks. Getting this one ready for my trip out to Colorado. No hard trails, but some good off-roading and remote camping...and we’ll see what breaks :).

Where in CO are you going wheeling? Might have to meet up for a run!

Installed an FM Modulator. I wanted an aux input but didnt want to take away from the factory look. I had this in my other 3rd gen a while back and threw another one in this new one. Works great and an easy install! I also found this little thumb drive looking thing that connects with your phone via bluetooth

Depending on what metropolitan area you're in, FM ModulatorS don't always work very well and often leave you with worse reception/call quality. I tried that years ago and opted for an aftermarket radio with Bluetooth and that fixed all of my except for the "factory look" which wasn't a priority for me anyway since us mall crawlers want to be unique and stand out of the crowd

Received my axle bearings via ebay kit that I only ordered for the Koyo bearings.

Marking on bearings
Side A
Outer Ring: blank
Plastic Ring: KOYO
JAPAN
63 (really small)
6308T
Inner Ring: blank

Side B
Outer Ring: T
Plastic Ring: KOYO
JAPAN
57 (really small)
6308T
Inner Ring: 6308T

Would love to hear from the OEM pundits on these bearings, do they meet the marking muster?

I did the same thing and just got 6308 double-sealed Nachi bearings, they were about $25 each if I recall. It’s just a basic ball bearing.
