What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

Just making sure you've tried erasing the pre-programed buttons by pressing buttons 1 and 3 for a bit and then going through with the programing procedure?

 

Yeah. Holding 1 and 3 together for 20 sec until fast flashing green? No joy.

 

I'm sure you must have came across my video how I did it. Just sharing in case. Also you garage door opener might have a different method. I'm not sure, not an expert. I'm just sharing how I did it.

I did. Thank you for making it. As best as I can figure I need a "bridge" or repeater sold by Homelink to get my particular old-ass doors to work. It's only $25 but I am of the opinion "fuck them" when it comes to that. It requires another remote and a antenna assembly plugged in to the garage electrical circuit to basically relay the signal and I just don't want to do that.

 

6-LED 18W 1,250lm Flood/Spot Light behind grille, on same switch circuit as ditch lights.

 

Wash and trip to Home Depot to finish up my garden

VOODOO BLUE!!! love it!!

 

Did you park in the pro parking?

 

Funny - I've had those in my Amazon saved items list and was just looking at them before logging on here. And I just went ahead and ordered them.

 

IKR, I saw your video!

 

Hey guys - I was going to order tires for my 4R and was going to do the 265/70/17 to 275/70/17 upsize (to ensure no rub on stock suspension), but then when I checked the price of tires (General Grabber ATX that I loved when I had my FJ), I see there is an $80 increase for that upsize. Is the benefit worth the extra $320 for the set?

 

Umm. No! Not worth $80. Why not go with 285/70/17 where most people go? I think the supply & demand for that tire is higher so the price is lower.

 

The 285/70/17's wont rub on stock susp and wheels? This is what I was going from.

 

Actually the 285's are same price as the 275's

285 = $302 no options available
275 = $302 no options available
265 = $221 but they come in different load ranges at this size. These are the ones I had previously on my FJ. However there are two other more expensive options at this size.

 

Oh well. Honestly I wouldn’t do it for that little change.

 

Thanks for that. I see the 285 adds an inch height..... but will it rub?

 

There are several discussions on that topic. Depends on if you wheel and such. If you have a pavement princess I doubt it but it might. I rubbed with 285/75/17 (34” tires). You are adding 1” in diameter with 285/70/17 but .5” in radius.

 

I get you - I hop more curbs than rocks. Occasionally go in the woods for fishing, so the bigger tire size for me would be about looks to be honest.

 

It will rub. Even with the extra inch the Pro offers I still had to lift it extra AND cut some bumper as well as zip-tie the mudguard back. On stock suspension any kind of turn will result in rubbing

 

Thanks man!

 

What kind of white wrap did you use around the fog lights?

 

nope

 

I believe they’ll rub without a min of 2” lift

 

Finally got 285s. Now my ride doesn’t look retarded. Alignment tomorrow. BMC is looking very likely in the very near future (because I actually do play in the dirt and shit). Anybody have any recommendations for a place in southern Utah that will do a BMC?

 

Lift is not needed to clear 275 or 285's.

Below are the things you might need to do to eliminate rub. Some of these things may be needed or all of them may be needed depending on your wheel offset, wheel width, lift, and tire size.

-fender liner mod
-a high caster alignment
-UCA's
-mudflap massaging or removal
-body mount chop

 

i did neither of the above and cleared my 285s with simple 2” lift plus I got better ride quality over the factory crap stuff.

 

285/70 or 285/75? @TrailSpecial22 @KYFHO

 

Greased the propeller shafts, forward and aft.

 

What did that 2" lift cost you? and did you do it yourself?
