    Nice, I drove up to Boone for lunch after. I hadn’t been there in 15 years or so, man that town is overrun. Used to be quiet for a college town.

    Replaced the sway bar bushings which were shot.

    I’m getting too old to lay on a driveway and work on shit.

    Well, that front sensor I pulled from that 02 4Runner turned out to be wrong for my truck (Toyota 89465-35360) need a Denso 192400-8000. Out $7, no biggie. Honestly, didn’t put much homework into it. Just figured parts were interchangeable. I’m actually surprised they aren’t considering same drivetrain.

    New sensor will be here Monday. Finally will have that CEL off after 5 years...shameful.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Notice your bed is empty and no tent... What's that neutral level at with the usual wheeling weight?

    The boxes are pretty much full. The only thing the truck is missing from full wheeling weight is the tent. It's only 115 pounds.

    Also bought new tires and wrapped them around the finished T4R wheels.

    Just waiting on black lugs to come in to mount them on the truck.

    Not sure for the v6 but the 2.7 changed to an afr at some point. Good chance that is the difference.

    The front diffs new, to it. Pretty sure you’ve owned it before though.

    Interesting. Strange they wouldn’t switch the 3.4 in the 4Runner over to an AfR as well, when that’s what was in the Tacoma 5vz

    So that 02 4Runner had a narrowband o2 sensor up front? That can’t be right. Someone must have mixed it up.
