What did you do with your 4runner today?

I am currently running a Kenwood DNX572BH, Rockford Fosgate's new marine amps, the PM600X4, and the PM1000x1bd, those are powering my Rockford T1675 in the front, JL evolution XR650 in the back, and a Kicker Comprt gen 1. I installed the 360 last night and it really woke everything up, the adjustability is sooo nice. Hardest part was finding some place to stuff it, everything is installed stealthy, amps are under the front seats, the 360 had to go where the factory nav unit was, everything else is mounted in stock locations behind stock grills along with a crap ton of dynamat. I originally wanted to use that area for storage but it was worth sacrificing the lost space.

I am an installer by profession and this is going into my daily driver, so I wanted something at least decent. I do like the MB's, maxxsonics put out some nice product. Their headquarters is like 20 minutes from my house.

I bet it sounds way more than "decent". Not everyone is willing to spend over a couple grand for car sound. I get it though. As an installer you cant be having a shit system and talk to customers into buying highend items. Now that i adjusted the amp and tuned a bit in very happy with my setup for the price. I still cant beleive the pvm216 mb quart are made from carbon fiber weave. Highs are way to bright. I wired them to -6bd on the crossover and headunit eq to -db also. Im to cheap and lazy to wrap dynomats. Im surprised on the mids bass and the 8" sub. I used the origional box. I wish i can hide the amp though. Its quite large. 1000w 5channel. Likely less in rms. but it does the job.
 
got my spidertrax in the mail today. ordered the blemished ones and they still look great and save $40 over the others

Nothing wrong with blemish. Since they will be way mor blemished after a few months and tire rotation.
 
Put a new set of cooper discoverer at3s on it. White Letters out! I like the look, we'll see how they wear. They're more quiet than the duelers that came on the runner, but they don't ride as smooth as my old tacoma's michelins.

They were, however, about 330 bucks cheaper as a set.
You'll like those. Running them on my uncle's stock 100 series LC atm while he's at Rausch and they've been great. They shed mud like nobody's business too. They do feel very slightly rougher than his stock Michelin tires at highway speed, but it's barely noticeable tbh
 
Got my new wheels in yesterday and finally decided on which tires this morning. Really happy with how it turned out. Time to put together a build thread together with all the pics I've got from the last year of mods.

SCS SR8 with TRD caps on 285/70/17 duratracs.

Those look amazing. What a great set up.
 
Just killing a little time checked tire pressure, checked fluid levels, poked my head under the truck to see if anything was loose or otherwise out of order. Then I saw this..... Looks like my drivers side coil over has developed a bit of a leak. THIS SUCKS. I'm sure Toytec will replace it without any hesitation but this is the 2nd shock I will have replaced. One of my rears snapped off a couple months ago, they replaced that and were very nice. But at some point great customer service becomes a little empty when the product is suspect. I would rather have a great product and crappy customer service than the other way around. Anyways, I guess I will call them and, get the replacement and pay for a couple more alignments :(

Sorry about the sideways pics...........

Holy heck thats high for a 4th gen. You got any rubbing? Might have to go from my 32 inch mtr's to some 34's when it's time for new tires :hungry:

305's doesn't rub really more than 285s but i've done a second trimming session after bying them on the body mounts, pinch weld of the cab and plastics.
