Ask @Timbo89

 

Very Good , Thank You Ma'aM!

 

So I was planning on buying my leaf packs and somehow I ended up spending 600 on Michael Kors for @Tisa4runner14 instead. Oh welllllll she's happy

 

On what?

 

This stuff ^

 

@Jon4x4 i see 4 wheel parts is an authorized Icon dealer on the Icon site. Do they however rebuild Icons? Just wondering cause the store here in north Jax would be perfect if they did.

 

Ah really expensive tool bags. Hahaha

 

Lol yeah sometimes I give in, but I told my boss to sign me up for every holiday shift so that should help some

 

As you should and credit to you for marrying a "True New England Lady" .. That 4 Runner wears great jewelry ( Red Sox ) so the Lady should be adorned with gifts also...............Then when you need forgivene$$ for a Tacoma purchase it will be easier to do...

Do NOT ask me how I know this but Pandora receipts always precluded Tacoma receipts ..

 

What the he!! is in the water for Central Florida

We went back to Clermont and .....All my orange groves, cattle grazing and riding areas are now roof tops and stores..

Who needs two Walmarts within 12 miles and a drug store every 3rd traffic light. Only saving grace was the "Hills" is still a great neighborhood (except that 50 traffic.. ) and downtown is still "old Florida" including the Lake Minneloa stretch that has been graciously updated...

I was HAPPY to drive back home along 17 where the "True Old Florida" hopefully never goes away ..

 

Yeah everywhere is ready for development and they are sure taking advantage of that. So question for everybody, does a remote and cruise control come standard on the higher end models? My base V6 4x4 sucks as far as features go besides the touch screen. I have to buy a remote and install cruise control. The TRDs come with this right?

 

I believe they're now called convenience package, but in the older trucks, sr5's and also TRD models come with keyless entry and cruise control, i would recommend an aftermarket 2 way alarm, it's awesome to know if you locked your car or not just by looking at the remote

 

Perfect, I was looking into viper alarms so that'll be good to have. Thanks for the help

 

while you're looking at viper alarms, might as well get the remote start too

 

Ahh this is true lol might as wellll that would be cool to have, especially if I can blast the a/c before I get in

 

also a perk if you end of getting exhaust, you can turn it on right as you walk by, so you can hear it, just to enjoy it a lil more!

 

Ah didn't even think of that lol good idea.

 

Do you guys think I could throw on one stock TRD strut & coil on the passenger side while leaving my Icon coilover on the drivers side for about 1.5-2 weeks without major issues? (rubbing etc. I have 285s) ? I have my passenger side coilover leaking and need to send it in for a rebuild (only 10,000 miles on it, insane). Maybe just throw both stock struts and coils back on? I just want to avoid buying front struts right now just to send in these but am worried my tires might be a little too big without the lift. I haven't been stock in so long I forget. I have the dakar leaf pack so I know I would sit VERY ass high which will also lower the front a bunch I would think.

 

I just hope vipers are better than they were back in 2004 when I had one on my honda (remote start, all the bells and whistles). At least once a month that thing would crank up by itself at 2-3am setting off the alarm. I have walked up to my car several times and it be running, I was like WTF? Def some radio freq setting it off or something.

 

do you have another vehicle you could drive? If not, do both struts but I am sure you will rub
