    Ordered some 3000K LED bulbs for the high beams. I always liked the look of the yellow DTRL of my 2011 Taco so we'll see how these look on the 4Runner.

    That roof rack though! Awesome! Where did you get your Red Can and bracket in the ladder?

    Change your oil yourself! Only thing any dealer will EVER do is warranty work, if even that. I won't even use the joke of a Toyota care BS these trucks come with. Not worth it, i'll spend $60 and do it myself.

    How's that working out for you lol. I got 3 years with my 4R and will never use it. These oil change techs are worthless moneys and have no clue what they're doing. I put less than 10K miles on my truck every year. I change my oil every 5K miles at a cost of roughly $60 For me, $120 a year is very cheap peace of mind to just do it myself

    Lift is coming next week. I have to put everything up like bumper winch roof basket ladder and skid plate then lift so when you go for alignment it would be better.

    First 4Runner, traded in my 2017 Tacoma OR for a 2018 4R OR. First thing I started with was the pro wheels and wildpeak tires. Then I blacked out the grill and front valance with satin black vinyl. Installed a blackout kit on the emblems. And just recently plasti dipped my fender flares, turned out alright.

    Next I will most likely get window tint and then some sliders or steps.

    I figured as much with your rack, etc. I plan on using the T13 as well. Haven't heard too many negatives on em yet.

    I have them, got 1.5". Good coil. There's a thread on the T1 and T13 both on this site and t4r.org with a lot of pics on the t4r thread.

    Good to hear.

    That thread basically convinced me to go with the T13.

    Nah, working on a home made attic for the rear. Some place to stow sleeping bags, pillows, pads and such that’s easily accessible and not taking up space elsewhere.

    So far it’s 1” webbing, a sewing machine with heavy duty needles, #69 nylon thread, a few you tube videos on box stitches, and an idea. Oh, a few 1” snap buckles, and few other items.

    What % did you go with, I had my fronts just matched to the back but I’m starting to wish I went a little darker all around, especially wish I had done the moon roof

    I went with 35% on the fronts and 20% for the rest. But I want to go back and match the fronts too.

    Have you had any issues placing your ezpass in the dotted area? If it still reads just as good, I would love to hide it there!

    Mines in the same spot, however mounted on the passenger side. Use tolls almost daily and have never had an issue.

    But, it's been wet here in utah for a while. Drove on some wet wet roads for the commute home. First time since I've had it,..

    I gotta say, these KO2's where awesome. No hydro surfing at all, what so ever.
    I felt warm and fuzzy as hell. ,.complete control.,... by legacy highway, I was looking for and smashing through puddles...
    I cant wait to really stretch its legs in the mountains ... do some low, low, range ish.

    Dig it...
