    Only one, my wrist from taking on too sharp a transition at the bottom of a hill. I have more injuries from becoming a hood ornament when drivers don't check right when exiting a parking lot!

    It was only $65 to mount the rear tire. Including tube that was $19. A new spacer is coming. If I known that I would not have attempted do it myself. But, it was fun.bThat back tire is heavy as :;()$&(;;!

    Well, I bought a digital caliper, "HarleySpacers.com" sent me a few. Got the 3/4 spacer on plenty of clearance on the Rotor/Springer Fork. Im ready for my maiden voyage on the new rubber! I even rented Ghost Rider!

    IMG_0168.jpg Here's what I got. There was some contact on the floating caliper bracket to springer fork. IMG_0169.jpg So ground it down a little now it clears fine.

    I’m actually thinking about what I WANT to drive other than a 4Runner!! I feel like the 4Runner would be complimented really well with a small gas sipper. Maybe not only just for a better gas mileage option, but also when I gotta go park in a congested city, or if parking spots at some place are too tight, and I’d rather risk something else getting dinged. I might think about getting a fun little manual transmission car to compliment the 4Runner. Although

    Although t’d be nice to buy something like a new manual GR Corolla, I do appreciate the days when I drove a cheap piece of sh*t and I didn’t care what happened to it. I remember a few times watching someone hit my bumper, or side, and it was just a scratch or small dent and I was like “Ahh don’t worry about it” and I’d just let the person drive off without filling an accident report. Might just keep an eye out for something like that (plus you keep your 4Runner mileage lower too).
