I'll hit Discount Tire tomorrow, see if they'll switch them over for me. I bought the road hazard/lifetime mount and balance when they mounted them up.

 

Ahhh, I see. Why spend so much on those when a shop will do it for a fraction of the cost?

 

Packed up the truck for a weekend of camping and fishing.

 

Discount Tire said they would not clone my stock ID's to programmable sensors. I was going to do it myself and have them mount and balance them. Then ended up buying 4 used with rebuild kits for the price of 1 sensor.

Ebay seller says they check them all and keep the ID's written down but couldn't tell me what the battery levels were. Bought the scan tool to read battery levels and was going to swap the ID's myself.

They were going back anyway, I spend so much money with Amazon they can loan a tool a few times a year for me lol.

 

Are you keeping two sets of tires? Why not just take your old TPMS and put them in the new tires?

 

I'm going to hang on to my stocks for a little bit at least. Was thinking about winter/summer but after the struggles to get these on not sure I want to take them off.

But once I get the rest of the lift on I'll put the stock tires back on for the alignment. Don't want them scratching these wheels up putting the sensors on.

Ise to do alignments when I worked in a shop. Some of those sensors can scar a wheel pretty good.

 

Amazon. Got mine in 2 days for $8. Flare clips $14. Do not buy from dealer! Flares are $24!!!!!

 

Applied my Lamin-x yellow dog light films.

 

Hey man. Can you do a write up with parts and pictures of how you decide to mount them in the fog location? Or just PM me some photos? I'm looking at the Tuff LED lights on Amazon and can't figure out how to actually mount them in the stock location. I've seen one guy zip tie them and another guy made a bracket behind the light. Just curious how yours will turn out.

 

Put new tires on and replaced brakes and rotors. Just bought her yesterday and after closer inspection my new to me 2010 Pre-runner is bone stock. The only thing the previous owner did was change the oil, stereo, and put HID bulbs in. Now I'm looking for suggestions on what I should do next.

 

bad question to ask around here but congrats on the new truck

 

Well I'm mounting these in my eBay bumper, but here is the link that gave me the idea. I think they came up with a better idea rather than zip ties later in the thread.

Also I used TURBO SII Pair 4 Inch 27W Round Flood Beam Led Work Light Driving Fog Lights

how'd the ebay bumper work out for you i started following that thread until it got out of hand but never really saw any real feedback

 

4x4 at all? Maybe hit the trails from time to time? Check out our local club, Toyota Expeditionary Association Of Alberta at TEAOA.CA.

 

Damnit wrong guy. Lol

 

This guy. Check us out TEAOA.CA

 

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check those lights out.

 

I've seen other brand name plate bumpers and the finish quality is on par. It fits great, the finish is good, never really winched with it so I've never truly tested it. I like it, and it puts a smile on my face every time I see it haha.

 

cool something to consider if they're still selling how heavy

 

For the price shipped it's a great deal.
