    The 4R doesn't have the DRL/fog light option. The foggers only work with the low beams. I wish it had the Tacoma set up. I'll run the DD Max's for a while before I pull the trigger on The Bright Box.

    I guess I never realized that about the 4Runner. Weird.

    Haven't really been paying attention to the whole 4Runner light problem, but... 2ndGenBestGen only allows fogs with low beam. There is a magic place called TW where people fruck around and find out and they discovered a wire trick. Add a wire to the fuse block and tada, the fogs work (with the factory switch) anytime you want. Isn't there a 4Runner group/page that does that sheet? Seems like a problem if you don't have that level of magic, just say'in.

    It was something on the lines of how great 3rd gens are because you don't need to manipulate wires and switches to get the fogs to work with drl, like with 4runners and 2nd gens. :rofl:

    Might have to go find some trails on Saturday.

    All I heard was that 4runner has never jumped the tracks......

    There're easy trails like Sunday Drive....Casual Crawler...
    @McSpazatron can confirm.

    Funny enough I have gone over the tracks enough to get full droop but I don't think I actually left the ground, too afraid to do damage to the stock fancy interlinked suspension lol.
