winter cold did not help

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you output pictures!

I went into the state forest near my house. It's pitch black there.

Notice how far into the woods the lights go. That sign is about 100 feet away and it is lit up bright as day! They also give light in every direction, where the high beams only give light towards the ground.

With total darkness on this snowy night, I am VERY impressed with the output. It's much more impressive in person. Cameras just can't capture the difference.
 
Dumb Q, but when you mention "stock springs" are you talking about keeping the original factory springs or buying "new" stock springs.

Also, do the sports rides have different springs than the SR5 and LTD?

From what I've read here, the stock FJ springs are approx 10% firmer then stock 4Runner spings. Now, I bet I could really stir some sh!t and say that springs never really die, :tsk: But honestly, I would imagine that over time, they may loose SOME elasticity to the metal, causing them to perform "differently" then new ones.

Good wheel choice! I have those on my Silverado. Love how they look on your rig, but two vehicles with the same wheels would be silly to me, so got to find something else for my T4R.
