Wife’s new 4Runner (and build thread)

Tell me about your garage flooring, what did you use / how is it holding up?

 

I had a company come and install the coating. Holding up well, although it is dirty in those pics.

 

Been thinking of doing it in the future as well. Prices are all over the place.

 

My wife is so jealous and she isn't even the one reading this. Congrats on the new rig!

 

Added Apex Overland recovery points, and RCI aluminum skids last weekend.

 

Any feedback on the regear? Did you have the larger tires on before re-gearing, that way you could compare?

 

No, did it at the same time. Past experience building Jeeps, I always re-gear when adding larger tires.

She drives great after the re-gear. Turning more rpm (2400ish) at 70 mph, but doesn’t hunt for gears as much as it would have without the regear. A side benefit, the speedometer is now dead accurate. Toyota’s always seem to indicate faster than actual speed for some reason.

 

Funny you should say, after moving to 285/70's my speedometer is also dead on, where as it used to read faster.

Just realized you're also active on the 4runnerscom forum as well!

 

what was the final measurements for the front and rear after completed. Thinking about lifting ours but, would help out knowing the settings just to have an idea. Also, fits in the garage with no problems??…

 

did your second fob show up yet? I bought 2 4Runners in Nov 22 and one came with both fobs and the other just one. Almost a year later and still no sign of the second fob.

 

I don’t recall the settings. Fit in the garage with no problems.

 

Received the second key fob in July.

 

Aaaand it’s gone. Wife didn’t like it, so she traded it in on a new GX 460. It will be missed by me.
