I plasti dip my grill after some inspiration at Pine Barrens NJ wheeling with other T4Rs members.
Nice! Looks much better.
What did you do with your 4runner today?

I was gonna do mine too a couple weeks ago but I couldn't remove my grille because two bolts were seized on with rust. I'm going to have to mask if I want to give it a try. Still debating if I like the contrast the chrome provides on mine. I'm usually not a fan of chrome.

Very well done. Looks great! Any how-to's for this? (Where'd you get the mesh, and how did you attach it/was it easy/etc?)
I'm thinking this would go well with my center bar of the grill still Plasti Dipped and my Blackhoused headlights.

got my new addco sway bars today.
Nice! New bushings as well?

yes. I'll more than likely put them on tomorrow.

Quick thought(might be very stupid); lifted rigs have extended sway bar links, what if you ran shorter links? Would that help the sway bar or restrict it? Overall thought is better handling.

In the lifted world are the longer links for more articulation or just so it can bolt up to the truck?

It's to relieve stress on the sway bar after being lifted.

Gave my 4Runner a well-needed bath and got a chance to install a set of 4300K HIDs for my low-beams. I aimed them appropriately, so no blinding others. (No pictures of them though... I don't actually know why I never took pictures of them, they look great)
Sorry for the crappy iPhone pictures...
Since I was outside, I figured I'd also throw in my LED licence plate bulbs.

Talked Toyota down from $1,007.33 to $755.52 to fix my rear brakes and transmission. They kept me too long (read my previous posts)

I tried to change the rear rotors and they were seized with rust and mud.
Last week I stopped hard in the rain and I warped my rotors/took chunks outta them. I replaced the fronts not the rears. I figured I might as well get them done while its in

Time for a scuba mod on the transmission and front diff, I can tell ya that!

We're you 300 miles from home? That sucks but you got to throw lockers in, so that's a win!

the front diff has an extended breather under the hood to the right of the engine looking from the front, left hand side sitting in the driver seat. the rear breather needs to be extended, and the transfercase/ tranny also need extending for deep water crossings... yes i've learned the hard way as well lol.
not quite 300 miles from home, but none the less i was in the middle of a trail at 2am in the morning and had to get back to camp in front wheel drive. lol and yes I was grinding the piss out of the ring gear the whole way haha
