What did you do with your 4runner today?

Thanks! It’s sweet so far, I’m really happy with it.

Another note, the tire carrier uses 1/2-20 lug nuts, and includes a few acorn nuts to match that. Those won’t work with most aftermarket wheels, I had to make a last minute run to the auto parts store and buy a $33 set of spline drive nuts.

That's an odd kirk. I wonder why they didn't use matching?

Did the Eimkeith panhard correction kit and an NTK body mount relocation. Very pleased with both of 'em. The PCK let's me go back to the factory bar and toss this clunky aftermarket one, and feels great in turns. Body mount kit was just for new tire clearance and it's no joke, all kinds of room in there now.

Zero pictures because I suck.
 
Spent the weekend, on and off, replacing the intake plenum gasket, # 2, 4, 6 cyl fuel injectors, and valve cover gaskets. Sprayed the valve covers black while they were off. My LTFT bank 2 is running lean under load and adding fuel while bank 1 is normal. Looks like my injectors are partially clogged, #6 worst of all.

Got holiday-season ready lol. Whe installing the rocklights decided it would be a good idea to decorate the roof rack since it will likely not serve an actual purpose for the next couple of months.

What I did today - intake gaskets

Tried to post the picture of the endoscope smoke test I just did clearly showing a brittle broken lower intake gasket. Crazy how much smoke was coming out, hopefully that will take care of the miss fires I was getting.
Know what I'm doing my baby tomorrow!
2004 Limited V8.
 
Inspect my front brakes, clean and grease where necessary. Check all bolts while I’m there just for fun and I was able to tighten up my driver side cam bolt a bit more. Turns out it was the source of my clunk recently. LoL
 
i finally ditched the 5100/OME lift for a dobinson IMS with rear long travel setup. this included new extended brake lines and stops.

overall the install was pretty painless, but due to the length of the rear coils the 2nd rear coil was very difficult. ended up jacking the axle down from the body and still needed a coil compressor.

also got the [MENTION=28464]eimkeith[/MENTION] PCK welded on. great stuff.

I still cant pull the trigger on any of the current available 4th gen rear swing away setups. i like victory and CBI since they completely replace the bumper cover, but just cant swallow the price.

hoping to find a new fabricator to work with me and build a custom one.

Installed some Durobumps bump stops. Front and rear. I can feel the difference just pulling out the driveway. You don't get the jolt like you do with the stock ones. Kinda expensive but worth it.

How fast you hitting the driveway to be hitting the bumstops?! Lol I have some coming from my black Friday shopping, I'm excited.

Haha. My driveway is on an incline so when testing out new suspension I like to go up and down it a little faster than I should lol.

Easy enough test lol. I got them 15% off for black Friday from optoffroad.com I had emailed Duro themselves and they said no black Friday, then I stumbled across that website so I was pretty happy since they aren't cheap. Came out to about the price of wheelers on a similar sale, and from what I've read people prefer the Duro.
