What did you do with your 4runner today?

rolled 200k & replaced a CV axle that the boot had torn.

Can you inform us what all was used and how this was done? I am extremely interested for my use case and have been trying to think how I would best initiate it with my first material purchase being a semi-failure.

Yeah I will I'll do a whole write up on it...but throughout the entire process I've been recording it to make a video so hopefully either one should help you out.

Finished up the TRD tacoma suspension swap yesterday and spent 3 hours at discount tire this morning. Long story short, they couldn't put the 265/70r17's on my old wheels because they were too wide (17x9). So after two and a half hours of watching them struggle I just said the hell with it and bought slightly narrower wheels. And they were done in 30 minutes.
 
went ahead and pulled out the rest of the interior carpet. Rear passenger and Front passenger side...interior. Now onto the driver side.

This is a super sick idea. Any details on the material you used and how you installed would be great. I think you've garnered the attention of a lot of people on here!
 
FJ Transfer Case Swap

So today I finished up a lot of my FJ transfer case swap into my 4th gen with the A340F 4-Speed transmission. Still need to take care of some interior stuff but the shifter fits in the coin pocket and everything works great!

Check out my thread on this swap (link in my signature) if you're interested in a more in-depth description and documentation of the swap.
 
try to figure out why my 2004 4.0 gives high LTFT as the RPM goes up and only on bank 2. it does have a p0430 code but trying to figure out the underlying issue might fix the code. that's what i did lol
 
Been a busy weekend of wrenching.

Installed these.

Cut some holes in the fender.

And then installed part of the snorkel. Still waiting on the connector tubes I ordered since this is for a LC100.

Also waiting for the rear suspension to come in so the front is sitting about 1" higher than the rear right now.

Added a transmission oil cooler. Hayden 678. I measure the temps with my Scanguage, and I think its the torque converter temps. The one that changes more frequently.

It made a pretty big difference in temps. I have to drive up a hill to get to my house and sometimes it goes to 200+. Not sure why because my fluid is still red and not burnt or anything. Maybe because of my bumper/winch and bigger tires. But with the cooler it stays well below 200. Like around 150-160 when going up.

I just hope my temps are not too cool. If that's a thing?

I routed it from my radiator then back to the trans.
