What did you do with your 4runner today?

[t-man]

No pictures yet but this is my first 4runner after wanting one for years.

Trying to get it setup for me now.

Got my budget roof rack on that i am going to be using as a start to build off of and strengthen.

Got my headliner installed (Still needing all the trim over head lights and console and the rear storage trim if anyone has extras )

And Rhino lined my rear storage area.

I was thinking of using Monstaliner in the rear of mine as it is getting tore up from carrying around all my painting equipment all the time. Interested in seeing your pics and how it turned out!

I see debris under your runner. Is that the panhard bar on the ground or tire? :lmao:

Looks like the fancy rack is holding the sky up!

Those are the chairs and umbrella. It was easier just throwing them on the rack then walking them down to the beach.

Spent some quality time on the rear suspension...

Almost time for a build thread, but maybe after tires next month.

So what kit did you get?

And ditto on what [MENTION=111383]TORCH[/MENTION] said..."How do you like this setup? what are you measuring in the rear now? Thanks "

Thinking on changing my setup also, 2.5-3" medium-heavy spring load.

is it only 2" with the medium rate and 3" with the heavy? I want 3" but I don't want the back end to be crazy stiff. There is only a 50lb difference in spring rate between the medium and heavy though so who knows.

Contemplating this setup or possibly icon 3" overland with icon 2.0. Any ideas?

Spotted that one also, just starting searches. I still have stock springs with spacers and extra spacers, LOL, and my shocks pushed me up another .5"

I'm used to a little stiffer as a normal, and when I do adventure, I load my ride down, let alone all the extra weight I have added to my ride with the possibly more. Just looking for what others are experiencing with different springs with my desire height.
