what exactly is on the 4runner now?

 

285/75r17 Toyo MT

 

Who makes one?? Everything I’m finding is 8-9”

 

I don't know, I really like stock wheels for balancing so I never looked for them when I had a tire that could run on a 7" wheel.

 

Do eet

 

Man, I've been pondering the same thing. My truck sits in the driveway 99.9% of the time, I work from home and don't need a car payment sitting in the driveway. I have enough equity to get out of it and into a 4runner, GX, Cruiser, etc. About the time I think I've made up my mind to either keep or sell, I change my mind. After driving 9-10 different Cruisers the past week (all 100s), I was on the "keep" frame of mind until I started thinking about V8 4runners and GXs. When I finally do figure it out, I'll have the Taco paid off. Maybe I should sell my Cougar and get an old FJ40 instead, although my wife would prefer I sell the Cougar and get some dirt bikes instead.

 

I paid off the truck last year. It just sits in my driveway as well, I make the 1/2 mile commute to work in a Honda Accord my parents gave me. Whenever we go somewhere as a family we take the Sequoia. Been thinking about selling the Tacoma to get a 3rd gen runner and keeping the Honda or selling the Tacoma and Accord for a gx470 or v8 4Runner. I am hoping some deal comes up that I can't turn down and will make my decision easy. That gx470 I showed everybody is right at the ragged edge of making me jump on a plane to go buy it but I ideally want to stay under $10k. But I keep coming back to it...

 

Truck's paid off and a great platform to turn into a solid expo rig.

Toss a locker or two and some proper suspension on it and you're good to go.

 

That's the problem, if I kept the truck I would need suspension front and rear, rear locker and a rear bumper. If I sold it for $14,500 then I would have a paid off gx470 to start fresh on. I haven't spent the big money on the truck yet so now would be the time to switch. Not after I get the stuff for the Tacoma because I will never get that money back.

 

2nd gen TRD PRO suspension kits are CHEAP!!!! ~600 shipped

Anybody have a reason for me NOT to do this, if I just want a suspension refresh and mild lift???

 

If you're set on the SUV vs pickup... Clean the truck up and list it for a little higher than you think you'll get for it. That way you should have cash in hand when the deal comes up that you want.

 

This bitch is heavy

 

What group is that thing? Your going to re-wire for reverse terminals in the stock location?

 

31, and I paid too much for slee terminal crap to make it work with stock wiring

 

So I just left the emissions place and they said they were unable to complete my testing because a few of my obd monitors were “not ready” and I need to do a drive cycle to get them ready. Any idea what that’s all about?

 

Have you had the battery disconnected lately?

 

I think I’ve got it figured out. Does anybody have some O2 simulators I can borrow for a few days?

 

Hearing none...order placed!

Any recommendations for an AAL or leaf pack? Toytec 3 leaf AAL?

 

They are not bad. I have the pro 4runner kit on my wife's 4runner. Toytech made, not sure if they still do, a kit to modify them for a 2" lift.
