What did you do with your 4runner today?

Spent the day at home on the lake. The wind blew our boat to shore and I got to tow it back out with my T4R. Took a boat ride. Awesome day.

Do you guys have a build thread for you 4runners? The 4th gen is cooler every time I see it. I'm also curious about the 3rd haha. It looks like it has had MAJOR surgery.

P.S.- Really jealous. Wish we lived on a lake. How's the fishing?

Did the FJ swap last week and decided the rear end needed a couple extra inches. Took about 45 mins to get the Daystar 1.5 spacer back there.

Afternoon all, I was driving down the road and when I turned left I would here a squeaking noise. Took off the tire and found my rotor was scratched? Should I replace?

Buddy that's not scratched it's cracking! Not good man, replace asap. Worst case scenario it shatters and falls completely apart.. No brakes man.

Can I replace just this one or do I have to do both? What causes this, because they are relatively new.

Heat, poor manufacturing, things like that. How old? Is there a warranty? What brand?
I'd replace just that rotor unless any others look bad. Check your pads for excessive wear too.

Oh boy now I need to take mine off and look at it... Mine has a squeak every single rotation while driving and I was trying to just grease it.
 
I don't understand why people use drilled and slotted rotors on road. Your brakes are never going to get hot enough to cause brake fade on the street and off road that shit can get clogged with dirt and mud. Standard rotors are fine unless your racing the track or canyons.

I agree. I didn't put these on, the prior owner did. what brand/type of rotors should I get?

I like the fancy high carbon black coated ones from autozone. Duralast gold. They run $75 a piece but I like them. And they come with a three year warranty.

Look like this.

 
Used some QuickFist mounts to mount my hatchet and a telescoping snow shovel, oh and gave the FJ60 some much needed love. Needed to charge the battery on the Land Cruiser so I drove it around all weekend.
