    yupper kinda figured that might be it....towing is a whole different thing....used to do the boat thing, last boat was a 21' with a small block ((different $$ pit)...had a full size 1/2 ton chevy so it wasnt a big issue....I have seen some Taco's here on the interstate pulling some really big dual axle trailer/boat combo's..thinking hope ya never have a panic stop, thinking the trailer weight will take some serious steering control.....just curious for friends or a dealer etc?

    That’s correct, I think some of the Sport 4th Gen 4runners had the same bigger front brakes.

    Those were the LEDs that I originally bought, but had to return because the heat sink would not fit in my high beam location. I then bought the ones with the small fan and its heat sink was considerably smaller, so it would fit into my housings without any modification to them.

    Got a 3 inch lift installed today. Bilstein 5100 shocks. Really happy how it turned out and it rides so much better than stock.

    3 inches is perfect on my 265/75/16 KO2s, I was rubbing sometimes at full wheel lock on stock but not anymore. C6DE91B5-F8CC-49C0-BE7E-31E1C81B2580.jpg

    Pops out from behind when you have the door panel off.

    Price point and my current needs were fulfilled with urd. Lol @ failure point. I wire everything myself including my alarm and remote start, I think I have bigger issues than the wiring for the calibrator :D

    Once I supercharge I will go ucon. I can't justify $700 for a non standalone EMS. I may entertain it though haha

    Same for mine but a little steady pressure from a flathead screwdriver pushed them out. No idea why Toyota didn't just use some kind of arrowhead tab there instead of the melted plastic method.

    Agreed. I'll be changed out the door arm rest soon and that has to be drilled out too. Tabs would be ideal

    I used my truck for yard work today. That's a 900 pound bag of sand. You couldn't really feel the weight driving either. It accelerates and stops normal. I don't ever drive fast though. So old man speeds are my normal. The springs were pretty close to the bump stop though.
