TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

Installed the R1 Concepts Slotted Rotors and Off-road pads

 

Does anyone know which wires on the factory in-dash switches are for the dash light circuit? Adding a new switch and need to tap in for the lights on that one.

 

Shameless plug; missing the snow

 

Any rear spring suggestions for only a 1.5" ish lift in the rear for a 3rd gen - I've got adjustable CO's up front and will only go up to 265/75/17 max - at 265/70/17 as of now. Not going with bumpers or anything.

 

You could go with 99 Springs, they are 1" higher than all other years. You could also go with a spacer as well. Not sure of a stand alone 1.5" rear spring.

 

Yeah it's an option I've considered - those and possibly FJ springs.

 

I didn't know about the FJ springs!

 

Weird question:

I have a friend who bought a 2021 T4R. She wants to swap in a Pro grille and add some grille lights. The only issue is that she wants pink or purple. Anyone know if they sell anything other than amber/amber smoked/white/white smoked lights?

I told her that she may have to just get the white ones and throw a pink or purple film

 

OME906 are nice progressive coils that gave me just under 2" in the rear and no spare tire and stock skids; they're meant for stock weight.

This was last year before adding my swing out bumper and the 906's -



@Tour991 now has them as I moved up to OME890 due to the added weight.

Since adding exterior storage, full camp gear, and our 65lb fur child, I may move up to Superflex coils.

Here's how it sits at the moment with extra weight and the 890's -

 

@Dalandser here is how my 99 is sitting on the OME906 that I got from @Kwikvette. I am running Icon 2.0s with them and am on 265 75 16s

 

Honestly that is probably going to be her best bet. I don't think I have seen any 4Runner specific ones that other than white or amber.

 

Any one ells have a ticking sound coming from the evap system on their 3rd gen? I here its normal on some but is there a way to fix this?

 

Is yours in the engine bay?

 

yes

 

Interesting - sounds like the solenoid is malfunctioning?

 

I swapped out this valve felt a pulse in it but the newish one is doing the same thing

 

Might want to put a multimeter backprobe and see if it’s getting a weird pulse signal although that might only respond to pressure

 

Totalled

Get rid of it, I'll be there soon to pick it up.

Let Monica know I'll mail you guys the wood trim as I'll swap it to black

 

only if you make them into Christmas ornaments
