What did you do with your 4runner today?

I recently had my clutch and compressor go out, the compressor actually locked up and rather violently. $400 to fix her up, also are you using a pressure gauge? What pressure do you have while the a/c is on? You can google a pressure chart and use an IR thermometer and check what temp the vents are blowing and that will tell you if you have the correct pressure
 
When I spray my condenser with water, chocolate milk comes out. It's probably PACKED with dirt, which is insulating the radiator and preventing it from exchanging heat like its supposed to

When I take my bumper off to put my new one on, I'll wash it out and hopefully that'll fix it!

As for my current AC status, hopefully I don't fry to a crisp tomorrow while wheeling

Just take a garden hose and rinse the radiator until the water comes out clear. I did this to get all the Pine Barrens mud out of there and it worked well and my A/C gets ice cold too.

I installed the URD O2 sim on my truck and now I have a P0037 code. Anyone know if my sensor is completely broken or can I spray it with some electronics cleaner and fix it?
 
Finally got round to swapping out the LED indicator lights for the AC controls. Better than the orange but jury is still out if I'll keep it like that or swap em all to white.

So I took it to the park today and put it into 4lo. When leaving I couldn't get it out of 4lo for some reason and it was beeping. Finally clicked in my head why. I got out the Runner and enabled my traction control then back to normal. Anyone doing the disable mod remeber this incase you hit a 4lo issue.
 
Yesterday I took it out for my first trail run to Metberry Gulch.

It did real well on the trail. The ARB compressor worked great getting the air back in the tires when we were done.

Speaking of air and tires......

First Mod on the New Ride

First modification I did was cryogenic slotted rotors from PowerSlot with Wagner Ceramic pads. Took away the brake shake and brought stopping distance down quite a bit. photo.jpg

I also bought my FJ coils and shocks and did the HCF delete mod.

Had a fun day at Sugar Hill offroad park. Raced a WRX and wheeled with a 60 series landcruiser.
And I also met a T4R member who used to have a lifted 3rd gen and I think i may have talked him into buying a 4th gen, he was very impressed with it.

 
Had a crazy amount of fun in Middletown, CT today!

I hit a tree! No "cares" were given. Minimal damage, plus I'll have a new bumper in no time! (Hopefully tomorrow)

Then a few of us headed back to [MENTION=65845]absolute yota[/MENTION]'s home base where a good amount of modding and grubbing took place. Did Josh's gauges and they look INSANE! We shall see if he will post up pictures..
