This is the way to do it. Yessssah! :tea:
Wow! That's awesome! LolToday I swapped out my center console storage area for the ashtray/lighter kit to get a second 12v charger. I love it! I was also surprised with the amount of sea glass I found in my old center console compartment. I guess my T4R has been to the beach a lot!

I want to do the smoker kit too, but then I thought of just adding some USB ports and putting them in the dash. Undecided...

Oh yeah, major mods over here. Bahaha!!
I was thinking of just adding my own ports too BUT this was way easier and I haven't had much time lately. I like your idea and I bet it would look pretty cool.
By the way, you sure send a lot of stuff from the drivers seat of your t4r. Hehe.
I haven't had the time and especially the funds lately to do anything! In total financial hardship meltdown right now. Sucks.Oh yeah, major mods over here. Bahaha!!

What a bummer. Don't be selling your truck! Worse comes to worse you could just live in it. Might bring some interesting stories to the forum.
Loving the red! And this time I truly believe you were in your drivers seat...
......and don't forget to check engine, I see the light. Eek! Damn dash lights, my most recent dash light issues are abs/e brake. My tires are too big, seem to be messing with a sensor. Any time I have to stop fast those lights come on and my abs starts acting funny. Restarting the engine clears it. I'm going to look into it soon.
Try performing the zero point calibration. May help.What a bummer. Don't be selling your truck! Worse comes to worse you could just live in it. Might bring some interesting stories to the forum.

My lights are because I have a broke abs sensor and a faulty O2 sensor. Lol.
I have a wife, 4 kids. A great dane and a blue nose Pitbull.... No room to live in here! Lol
I'll never sell Gertrude! I already told the wife, if she ever says it's me or the truck she better have her bags packed! Bwahahahaha!

I finally threw in my OME suspension this week and love it.
Today when I was heading home from work I found some free firewood on the side of the road and loaded it up.
The suspension took my front from roughly** 19"1/4 to 22"1/4. And am very happy with the look.
With the new suspension, I didn't even notice the added weight. It was Great! Other than the feeling of having a hundred loaded missiles pointed at me.
A few pictures from the install and wood pickup. Not the best but here they go.

Decided to paint my grill again. I was going to do a satoshi mod, but will do that another date when I have more time to devote to it. But I painted my grill with base layers of plastidip and a few coats of Krylon Satin Black as the top coats.
Now trying to decide if I want to plasti dip the toyota emblem or keep it chrome???

Thank you. I will post a profile shot tomorrow.
I used 885 upfront and 895e in the rear. Very happy with the height gain and on-road drivability.

Keep it chrome or paint it another color, so that it does not fade into the black. After I move, this is the first on my 'to do' list.

Have a stupid question and don't want to start a thread.
So, I bought 17x9 procomp rims from a private sale and thought the backspacing was 4.5" but it was actually 4.25". So, the rims won't fit because they don't clear my calipers.
My 4th gen is stock height and I'm running 265/70/17 tires. I know they'll be stretched again, but I work in the city core and my parking lot barely accommodates my vehicle as-is, so lifting it is not an option.
My first response was to sell the rims and buy proper fitting ones since I'm almost positive that a 1.25" spacer in combination with the 9" wide rim will make my runner look like a clown car.
Can someone confirm if it will look super stupid? I don't have/want flares either. Wondering if the tires/rims will stick out so much that it'll look dumb.

What about .25" spacers? You may or may not to grab the longer lug nut Studs that are available, but then you have that extra 1/4 inch you need.
