What did you do with your 4runner today?

Fixed my front tire rubbing issues...see here: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/178472-solution-tires-rubbing-front-mud-flaps.html
Installed an ADDCO rear sway bar and MStudt extended rear links. Even when removing the factory sway bar, it was flexing as I pulled it out. Good thing if you are looking for a lot of articulation, bad thing if you are looking for on-road performance.
The difference in handling is AMAZING. I can't wait to replace the front. If you are a pavement pilot like me, this is a must have upgrade.
I adjusted the links to get the bar as level to the ground as possible, I could have used a little more length actually without coming into contact with the lower control arm, but I wanted at least an inch of thread inside the body of the link. Still, as she sits, it is a night and day difference.

Is that a Gibson exhaust?

New gift for my baby.
Factor 55 thimble
So question is Warn pull strap or no pull strap?
Factor 55 timble, Daystar isolator, warn or smittybuilt D Ring

Yes sir! Gibson stainless for V8. Sounds and looks great! Quiet until you really stomp on it.
Clamps aren't the best quality, had one of the bolts snap when I was tightening it down. I replaced it with a Summit Racing brand stainless 2.5 clamp.

Towed our Kodiak Travel Trailer to the beach to relax a few days:
Nice set up! How well does she pull your trailer? Is that a 24ft? Thanks!
It's 18' of room, 22' overall. We try to keep everything inside light so it is about 3900#. I use a Blue Ox SwayPro WDH with Prodigy P3 brake controller. It does well overall with this lighter setup, the double axle weight more, but add stability.

Finally got some time to relieve some stress and work the 4Runner. I greased all my zerks (LBJ and driveline) as well as started sanding down everything metal under my truck and started to repaint it to bring it back to black. Got my rear diff done as well as some other parts.
I also pulled off all of my Bud Builts to wash them and repaint those but didn't get enough time to do those.
Painted my Panhard bar red to match my budbuilts.
Got too dark to take a picture though.
Good day! :cheers:

Finally had these installed!
Took almost 3 hours. Had the spare tire TPMS sensor replaced, only to find out another one had failed (in the past week...). Just gonna disable the light, and take the $90 as a wash.
I understand that my truck is now 11 years old and the sensors only last so long, but damn they're annoyingly expensive. You'd think with the regulations that require these damn things they'd be a bit easier to deal with. :wtf::doh:
Crummy picture installed, but they look great! Hitting the highway later this afternoon, hopefully they ride as good as they look.
Man. Really need to clean my wheels... :wow:

You'll love them! I've had mine for almost 2K miles and have zero complaints!

I would lose the warn strap
Right on. I'm shopping for exhausts at the moment. Seriously considering the Gibson. I don't want out too loud or droning.
