TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

if i knew what i was looking at /needed on ecgs when they did their 5% off memorial day i wouldve bought gears

 

I wouldn't go front locker. Gonna be terrible on the street

 

It's not an always on locker

 

I still need to pull my springs off and measure how much travel I have currently. I think it might make you even angrier.

Selectable is the only way to go for lockers on a street rig.

 

Finally got an ez deflator haha.

Also got a couple tool and wrench rolls to organize the tools in the truck.

 

im interested to see the numbers you're pulling and see what im pulling fully.

 

The superbumps compressed length is about half an inch. Should be easy enough to compress my 550 coils though and pull the spring off for the day. When I swap my front diff, I'm pulling everything off the front end and painting everything. So I'll do it then

 

The new to me Runner is en route from big bear on a tow truck. Should be here by noon.
Anyone got a spare 4.0 laying around?

 

He said he hits trails all the time up there so I'm hoping that means he used it often.

 

And I'm just learning it's a silver sport edition. Was kinda hoping for a limited but meh. I got the explorer for $950 so I think I'm still coming up pretty good

 

ARB? Thinking of getting one. My buddy couldn't figure out how to use his ARB deflator.

 

Yep!

Remember my first time using an EZ deflator? At Rowher?

 

Had no clue how that thing worked hah

 

Looks like it's easy once you know what you're doing. But my compressor this month, deflator next month.

 

I pull my cores to deflate, but have a few in the glove in case of this. Only shot one out once, out of airing down at least 100 times, 4 tires.

 

That's what the ARB does, but it contains the stem in the unit. Looks interesting and quick.

 

I had a few of those that I won in raffles and such but sold them, they constrict the flow more than just pulling the core. $1

Plus you can pull two at a time, or more if you are really fast.

 

I went to 14 in Anza last time and the bead starts to look scary to me haha. Like it's going to fall off

 

On my 1st gen I was down to 10psi at Pismo. Drove a couple miles on the street to air up
