    Success! :woot:

    I took some photos of the process that I will upload a little later. So far so goo, turning while accelerating is different but other than that it drives the exact same as before.

    Oh she is a nagger in her own way. "Buy me this" or "Ooo I'll work so much better with these" or my personal favorite "Think about how cool this shit will look".

    Yeah she talks to me.

    My favorite feature is the dash that shows the frontal plane and sagittal plane inclination level. I wish they would incorporate that in the new 4 runners.

    Add a button on the digital navigation screen that says level. Have a picture of the car from back and from side. And show the inclination/ declination as well as frontal plane rotation. bad ass.

    I get a lot of comments on that and I love it too. It still works and is pretty damn accurate as far as the altitude is concerned. My Samurai buddy is looking for one to retro fit into his haha

    I don't understand why Toyota designs their 4x4 shit the way they do now a days. For example, you can get that inclinometer and whatnot in the FJC as well as a manual t-case, but why not put both of those features in all 4x4 models? It is just little things like that that bug me.

    I still can't wait to get back into a Tacoma though lol

    I went wheeling today with a buddy to test out the new locker. I have no complaints and it performed great, exatly what it is supposed to do.

    Love your runner man. Especially the color and wheels. I'd like to find a set like those for my 83.

    Thanks dude! I've been trying to find another set of these wheels but I haven't had much luck. I really don't want to have to get aftermarket wheels later when I get bigger tires. These stock wheels are super damn narrow though lol I wouldn't go any bigger than 12.50.

    I'll just leave this little teaser here...

    I can get a stock one from RockAuto for about $13 so I'm thinking of going that route.
