    My current 4 Runner sold in 19 for $44,957 and now the same one with the same options is $47,857 and its because of the tech packages as I didn't have all the pedestrian radar, cross traffic radar, lane departure warning and adaptive cruise control etc:

    I wonder if it’s the same pump used in Tacoma’s? Those are under a big fuel pump recall right now, so if that’s the case, that’s likely where the backorder exists.

    If they’re still building 4Runners, I’d imagine they use just in time logistics; where as they have just enough earmarked to keeping production running, with everything else allocated to recalls and repairs.

    This could be the issue but as it was explained to me is the supply chain and COVID issues with production back logs I’m wondering if there will be lots of issues coming up....

    Man kinda nervous about something like that happening to mine since I've noticed my mpg's have gotten a little worse as of late and my VIN is showing up on the recall

    Anyway, something to fill the mod bug ordered the puddle light switch from meso, been looking forward to it since picking up the meso puddle lights last year. Had an issue with the first harness I got as it wouldn't turn on and got a second harness with better luck this time and everything works as it should. Also took the opportunity to rearrange the switches from factory. Can't wait for the map lights meso previewed recently to match the dome light.

    that sucks I’m definitely keeping an eye on how many miles I get with this last fill up and compare it to the last tank cause I’m forsure seeing less miles despite running my lift and tires for a while now. What’s funny is that I was getting 14-15 mpg’s from the beginning when it was stock but didn’t think anything of it since I live in San Francisco constantly driving on hills and found out from other owners that are in the Bay Area getting around 16 mpg’s. I’m at 10-11 mpg’s right now guess I should of gone with my gut feeling and reported it to my dealership from the beginning. Appreciate the info good luck!

    Finally got around to installing fog lights I purchased last year from Diode Dynamics. Pretty easy install, passenger side definitely a little harder than the driver side but still overall pretty easy. Also changed out all my interior lights to brighter LED’s. Next will be the headlights.

    While I have had everything for my lift kit (Bilstein 5100s, 3/2 Toytec springs, differential drop, UPC UCAs, and TRD Pro wheels) for a couple of months, I did not have the tires. I finally pulled the trigger and ordered my Michelin Defender LTX 285/70/17 tires from Amazon. They are scheduled to arrive tomorrow.

    I had the springs powder coated a bright red which will match the caliper covers.

    I have been pretty patient up to this point but now that the tires will be here tomorrow, I cannot wait to get everything installed.

    I still have a Pro grill and a cold air kit sitting in my garage that I need to install but as they say, one thing at a time.

    Ordered the Eibach Stage 1 kit last night. It's for my 2016 SR5 that is basically stock right now. Being in Canada, I ordered from Lowriders. Surprised that it's not a stocked item and that I'll be waiting for about a month... Regardless, I'm happy that it's on its way.

    That being said... I'm wondering if people are recommending that I install other related components like a front diff drop or a sway bar relocate??? I will be installing it at the 2.5" setting... just want to make sure that I'm not missing anything.

    I feel like there's so much going on in this picture. Are you in traffic - in the left turn lane - with interior lights on - taking a picture?

    Possibly left turn lane while stopped , no interior light just flash, while sitting in the passenger seat. But you almost got it.

    With the stage 1 kit, you're getting 2.75" lift coils in the front. You're going to want to put them on the lowest setting on the front strut so the coil is giving you the lift.

    At 2.75" of total lift in front, you will not need a diff drop or sway bar relocate.

    However, you might want to consider UCAs......depending on your set-up. Some people don't feel they need them, others do if they are running bigger tires and rubbing on their mudflap and/or body mount.

    Do you plan on running bigger tires / aftermarket wheels as well?

    Noting more than mid-32" for the tire size. Although I would like to have wheels close to TRD type offset... Nothing drastic for me.
