    How are you liking the Tacoma compared to the 4R you came from?

    are you pulling your ebrake cable at full droop?

    Thinking of putting a 100 series lc cable on my truck since even after unbolting it's bracket its getting pulled tight

    I've only done light wheeling these past months and none at all with the new panhard bar and springs.

    Maybe next week I can answer that.

    So far it should be the same since my rear sway bar is my limiter.

    My buddy has been doing that too, he bought his truck with with some random shocks shoehorned in the rear with custom mounts welded in

    Case in point why you don't buy a premodified vehicle

    Talk all the shit you want about me but I havnt done anything that can't simply be unbolted or removed and replaced

    A 1 inch body lift would be nice if you have the cold weather starter on a v6

    The 4Runner version Koyo made had good reviews on the various 4Runner forums. Seems to be almost identical.

    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    I guess some people really buy the decals and do this.

    Though I wouldn't trade either one of my 4th gens (with their suspension tweaks) for the one from the movie.

    They had 15 stands consisting of various fowl and rabbit scenarios. It was pretty challenging but it added to the fun, especially since there were four of us and we were talking trash but not really competing, just comparing skill and strategy

    Another member asked me the same awhile ago.
    If I did it again, I would probably buy a 3rd gen 4R. Having had both, I found the the 4Runner to have more creature comforts, overall more practical and much better value for money

    Good assessment!

    Two things I forgot to mention, one of which you did, was the rear glass as well as the 12 volt outlet in the rear!
