What did you do with your 4runner today?

im quite comfortable actually. would be more comfortable if i didnt have a sunroof. With the seat bracket modification i did gained the headroom back from the sunroof.

Oh yea...I completely forgot about your seat mod. I know its been discusssed a million times but i'm still baffled at the amount of headroom taken up by the freaking sunroof. Atlhough I do use mine on occasion (mainly because its there), I would gladly give mine up for a little more headroom. Maybe I just have a longer torso for 6'2"? Or am being too picky. Ha...who knows.

Installed Daystar 2.50 1.50 + Spidertrax. Definitely higher then I expected it to be I'm very happy with the results. I really wanted to buy the bilsteins and use the FJ coils I already have but its not in the cards right now. This will be great for I little while longer. I'm going to drop the running boards tomorrow and see if I like that too EDIT: forgot to mention, just put the hood guard on few weeks ago. It took a day or two to grow on me but I really like the new look.... Next bake those head lights apart and black them suckers out !

:bravo: Ha. It looks good man. What's your initial impression compared to the STTs?

Out of curiosity and given how high your truck is already, what are the new measurements?

havent driven a ton on them for feel yet but so far they seem softer while driving. The tread and what not i feel is barely different. I dont feel ANY weight difference so the weight is correct online at the same weight as my coopers. They're quite bigger, beefier looking which is exactly what i wanted.

Im going to wash it up and ill get some measurements tomorrow along with better pics. Im interested in the height now because i was already fairly tall.

I dont rub anyway but very minor on the body mount so ill get the BMC at BAMF soon just to do it and clear the space.

Very pleased with my $200 purchase
 
Started to finish up the exterior trim refresher... The wiper arm puts the seal in the background to shame now. Seals are next.

 
What are you refreshing them with? All new trim, or some kind of back to black trim product or something?

SEM 39143. Hit it with a 3m scuff pad, clean with a degreaser and then use some dupli-color adhesion promoter and then I laid down a few coats of the SEM. It's a terrible picture but everything I've used it on has turned out great. I hit the hood scoop mesh/plastic insert, the unpainted plastic on the grille, and all 3 wiper arms. All of the window trim will be done once I have a day off and the weather cooperates.
 
OH MY GOD!! I FEEL LIKE A LITTLE SCHOOL GIRL I CANT STOP GIGGLING. i ordered a set of bilstein 5100 adjustable with matching rear set up as well. Next in line, my work has left over fj springs from a lift we did on a customer truck. (brand new 2 miles on them). then maybe "borrow" my co workers fj trail team wheels/tires...you know...an extended time.
 
Took my wife's 2007 4runner into the dealership and got the right CV and 4Lo actuator replaced under the limited powertrain warranty that came with the 4runner when we bought it CPO 2 years ago.

Happy wife, happy life.
 
drove around in the biggest rain storm i have ever seen hitting every puddle i could find.

on an unrelated note, became an uncle and then fell 2 stories in an elevator on the way out
 
In keeping with my "Happy Wife, Happy Life" weekend that I appear to be in the middle of... I gave my wife's 07 limited grill a facelift with some plastidip...

Took it to the local home depot to haul supplies for an outboard motor stand I'm going to make. The stand will allow me to service it more easily and give the boat transom a break during the winter storage months. Is it time to go fishing yet?!
