What did you do with your 4runner today?

Yeah I was thinking either daystar 2.5/1.5 or some 5100's up front and a spacer in the back. I haven't full decided yet though. I don't do extreme wheeling but I do go on a good bit of trails and such. Any suggestions?

at least do a suspension lift in the front and spacers in the rear. spacers ride like shit up front (my personal opinion). plus you'll have to replace your struts eventually anyway.

the rear eh with mild off-roading spacers are fine. but its not that much to just purchase a set of rear springs and then go back in with 5100 rear shocks
 
Did the upgrade bigger front brake calipers and rotors. I've heard this referred to as the tundra brake swap but also that the larger calipers and rotors come on some 4th gen t4r's. Mine being an sr5 had the smaller "wg" calipers and rotors. Now it's got the bigger "WH" calipers and bigger drilled/slotted rotors up front. I also put new calipers and drilled/slotted rotors on the rear and ceramic pads at all four corners. Oh, I also got excited thinking about the Shrockworks front bumper I ordered last week. Just playing that waiting game now...

5100s up front, I've had spacers on for the last year and it's not bad but once I upgraded to the 5100s I don't think I could ever go back. It rides so nice.
 
Got me some new wheels and tires. 17x9 Ultra Guantlets on Toyo AT2 265/70/17. Extremely happy with the new look. Time to go offroad...on some grass! lol

-BB winch plate
-warn vr10000 winch
-curt mfg hitch reciever
also was able to keep my train horns LoL



 
Took the 4runner out the other night after a light rain. Thought I was going to get stuck in a rut but it pushed through it! lol

Happy belated thanksgiving everyone!

Going tomorrow to meet NYC-runner to pick up some ricochet 1/4" aluminum FJ skids that my friend gave me. They've been on the parts train for a while, but now they are finally here!
 
Took her up to the Sierra's and got a Christmas tree.

Photo is pretty crappy but it was getting dark and all I had was my phone.

Yesterday, we picked a good one. Took it to pick my daughters first little Christmas tree at a local Christmas tree farm owned by some friends where you pick and cut your own:





Merry Christmas!
