That should have some people scratching their heads......:lmao:

I'm sooooo doing this!
 
what material?

Today i sound dampened my trunk floor and hatch
What material did you use? When I was taking parts off my first-gen I found a 3/8-inch thick particle board laid on virgin truck bed (first-gen was really a truck) Looks like stock and weighs 20 pounds! There is not a layer of sound dampening material on panels, and I do not need that thick wood, so I could remove it and replace with use up to 20 pounds of appropriate sound-proofing throughout the truck.
 
I did more "emblem work"/Ripped off momo's idea
Took one small step towards saving the planet.....lol:lmao:

He told me about it when he was considering it and I ordered mine first, but his arrived first. We did get different emblems though.

Represented the Yota's this evening at a local car show. Had some fun. Definitely won in the 1.5-6 year old "daddy look at the monster truck" category haha. Built some quick RTI ramps.

Installed OME 895E's

Got sick of how the Daystar leveling kit looked. Thought it was "too level" and wanted to add some rack. So, kept the spacers in the front and removed the spacers in the rear and replaced them with the 895E's.

If they settle some more great, but if they don't I'm also fine with that as well. Betting I'll upgrade to the OME 885's in which case I'll then want the Toytec Superflex or OME 895's.

Things we do to get the perfect stance. Good to know your biggest problem in life is finding the perfect height for your 4Runner...

Lift stats...

Before:

Front Right: 36" / 22"
Front Left: 36" / 21.75"

Right Rear: 36.75" / 23.75"
Right Left: 36.50 / 23.75

After:

Front Right: 36" / 22"
Front Left: 36" / 21.75"

Right Rear: 38" / 23.75"
Right Left: 37.75 / 23.75

Net lift in rear: 1.25"

Pretty close to a factory rake, i.e. 38" - 36" = 2". Factory rake that I measured was 1.75".

BTW, still want to get 265/70/17 tires and tint the front windows to match the rears.

895E's
