What did you do with your 4runner today?

yeah its pretty sweet... 07 tahoe ltz with z71 front end. 6 inch fabtech lift on 35inch trail grapplers.. he recently installed fox 2.0's in the rear. thats all at this point. Was pretty cool to watch that giant thing in the trails.
 
Hit a little trail, was time to exercise the 4Lo a little. Hot damn this thing is a beast!!! :rockon:

I didn't do it today, but I did just re-finish my rusty hitch and plasti-dipped the center section of the bumper. Now my front and rear bumper kind of have the same paint scheme.

Installed new spare tire carrier assy., removed factory light duty hitch receiver and installed frame mounted DrawTite hitch on my '03 Limited V8. Now I can tow my camper with the WD system.
 
Installed tacoma trd off road shocks and coils on my front. Ended up breaking the abs cable so patched that and did the zero calibration.

The ride is so much better now, and haven't done the rear shocks yet.
 
did some sound deadening, trying this second skin damplifier pro, got the trunk kit and have 4 sheets left over, might decide to put it on top of the floor above muffler. took out my jl audio 500/1 that i havent got time since my rockford fosgate t1000 came. redid the amp rack just a little, so no more body panel hitting it. did quiet down a lil and now the vibrations are from the tailgate window and the cladding. only did the left and right quarter panels, didnt feel the need to put on the inside of wheel hump much.

Since there's no "What did you do with your GX470 today?" thread...

I'm changing out the rear shocks with Edelbrock IAS originally for 4th-gens and FJs,originals are leaking and rusting away. OEMs are electronic,about $500 apiece :shocked: I picked up a complete front and rear Edlebrock set for less than that. The driver side is done,about to head to the hardware store to get more sawzall blades so I can do the passenger side.

EDIT: both rear shocks are done,rear doesn't "jitter" like it did before.

Changed the rear diff fluid today. Going to do the front tomorrow along with brakes. It was pretty nasty... :\

Just picked up a new set of wheels. MB 352 16x8.5 et-12 4.5 BS. I tested one wheel out and had no issues with the brakes. Just a little concerned about clearance (ucas mostly) when the duratracs go on. What does everyone think? I would certainly appreciate some feedback!! Thanks! Full OME 3/2 the 19th.

IDK about the tires........ but that jack look sketchy and you should really use jack stands...


NOT trying to be a dick but a car fell on one of my guys and it wasn't good...:behindsofa:
 
Lol it was in the costco parking didnt have a stand unfortunately. Only took 5 minutes max. Jack dug into the asphalt it was definitely sketchy.

Wheels look good and you shouldn't have any issues as far as the wheels hitting the control arms.
