Been traveling and filming a lot, so I haven't had a ton of time to work on the 4Runner, but I found some time to put this little year in review together featuring the 4Runner and some of the off-roading trips we did
Check it out! (I have no idea how to add the actual video to this site lol)

the vid is rad
This was a small part of our trip to Colorado in September. Ophir Pass from south of Ouray to near Telluride. It's a long-ass video, so be warned.

Changed the cabin air filter because it's been smelling a bit...musty?...found a mouse nest made mostly of moss (no mice). It was packed in there good, almost looked like I was hiding some greeny-green or something.
So while I was in there I did the 'rodent-be-gone' mod, chicken-wire/green fencing material over the cabin air inlet.
Also changed the oring on my oil dipstick tube. I noticed some oil leaking on a short off-road trip the other day. Looked to be coming from there but can't be totally positive. The tube out too easy in my opinion and the old oring is considerably thinner than the factory one I got at the stealership so I think it was the culprit...time will tell.
Pics of both mini projects coming in my build thread once the photo sharing site I use fixes it's problems and lets me actually upload...

Getting my old tires swapped on to the stockies and the new Cooper's on to my FN's. Anyone here interested in purchasing some 17" sport stockies with Cooper ATP's 265/70/17 with 1/2 tread left?
You can see the 285/70 vs the 265/70 difference it's pretty crazy haha!

This makes my heart happy, my 285/70/17 Cooper STT Pros arrive Friday and I'm picking them up Monday :rockon::rockon:

New CV axle and OME 885s installed in front. Love the way it drives now, far far less nose dive when braking and a nice firm feel. Not harsh, just right. Brought the front up quite a bit, just what I wanted. Love the stance. ~38" ground to top of wheel well in front, ~39 in back.

Just dropping in. It's thanksgiving break, so I can finally take a quick breather from school. It's been really busy this semester, so not much has happened with the 4Runner. In fact, the Runner has been parked for the last week or so because I've been driving my new-to-me daily (those MGPs tho). Here's a couple pictures of each, just so I can prove that I've been active on here at least once this semester :typing:
Love the mr2, I've always wanted one :rockon:

I quickly realized that superflex springs and 5100's are a bad combo. I couldn't even stand driving it around town.
Sooo i went ahead and dumped in:
Fox shocks
Spc trail arms
Skyjacker end links
Energy bushings for the rear uppers
Prothane bushings for the rear sway
RCI skid plates for the trail arms
So yeah im eating bread and water for awhile, but man my runner feels (and looks!) good.

Clear this up - your rear sway links, you replaced the bushings on them that originally came with them? And can you link me to the sky jackers, I'm going to replace mine soon, are these reallygood or are there better ones to get? Also, did you replace the front end links as well
