What did you do with your 4runner today?

Good luck with that! Had a similar situation with both my Sequoia and my hubby's Tundra. After several tries elsewhere we ended up having the dealer do both. It was quite a headache. Hope you get it straightened out.
I hope these guys can do it that I just found. Apparently everybody in town is full right. Now! O.o
I'm not a technician and know next to nothing about alignments, but when I set the upper balljoint at the +4* mark shouldn't it be fairly easy to get 4* of caster??? I mean come on!!

Sent from the drivers seat of my 05 4runner.
 
Spare tire and resonator delete. Followed by TPMS bypass.


A. One of the cleanest undercarriages I have ever seen...extremely jealous.(thats NOT what she said(just so we can get that out of the way))
B. what are you going to do if you get a flat?

A. She only has 6,700 miles on it currently ;)
B. I have AAA, plus another daily driver, plus working at a dealership, so I wasnt too concerned about a flat.
 
New shop was able to do my alignment without issue. Old numbers are the shop this morning that apparently are worthless, new shop and final specs on bottom. They noted that my passenger uca bushings are worn and allowing some movement... So I guess that's next on the list.

Swapped out the rear FJC shocks for Taco TRD OR shocks. Kept the rear FJC springs.
Swapped out the front FJC coil-overs for Taco TRD OR coil-overs with Wheeler's 1/4" poly spacer on top. Looks good. I was afraid I wouldn't like it w/o any rake but it grew on me immediately.
Drives much different. The FJC shock valving was much stiffer (before two of them started to leak...) The TRD spring/shock combo absorbs low-speed bumps better but feels floaty at high speed.
Joe Meyers Toyota did my alignment but couldn't get the left side camber completely into spec...

Did you get a whole new frame under warranty, I thought 4runners weren't included?
I have AAA as well, they can't do much if you don't have a spare tire to work with, or are you just referencing you will get it towed? Just wondering.

His rig literally only has 6700 miles on it, engine and all. Couldn't believe it when I saw another post showing his ODO.
 
I tapped into the fuse box using an add a circuit, installed IDEAPRO 2-Socket Car Charger Cigarette Lighter Power Adapter DC Outlet Splitter 2 Pc USB Port in the center console... I wanted this to be connected to a constant circuit, I hated not being able to charge my devices with the vehicle off. So far so good, sorry no pics

Old couple kept it a their vacation home and literally barely drove it, then traded it in. It was a bidding war to get it haha, but I wasnt letting it go!
