    got rid of some of the green cluster lighting. The LEDs toyota used were white and green was applied to the gauge face. so some sandpaper and time you can have it all white. i left some green to accent the white since my clock mirror and some other little things are still green in the trucks lighting.

    Nothing major, interiors still in pieces as I hunt for a lower half of the dash. (Mines damaged)
    But did replace my front brakes with Napa pads and rotors ($100, just to last me till I go 17” wheels and 5th gen 4runner brakes)


    And low and behold the vibration I had at 40 mph? Was the damn brakes somehow.. so yea, drives good, just have to fix the squeaky leaf springs

    That’s my complaint with blue backlighting. It never looks right to me

    Installed a 4runner 750f transfercase mounted damper (mine never came with one. Also installed a cleaner skid) both scavenged off a transfercase going to the junkyard

    New trans cooler came in. Gotta figure out mounting and where I will install the thermostat since I’ll be bypassing the factory cooler.
    Tru cool 40k cooler. Made in Canada

    That thing is huge!

    I don't get the damper thing. Is it just a big weight?
