    Howdy folks, I figured I needed to upload some pics of my 2001 Limited, it's been my trusty steed for almost 10 years, and I hadn't really done anything to it before other than put 1-size larger tires on it (265/75R16s), and removed the side step. Been too focused on my 2022 Tacoma getting it how I wanted it to look, but now get to spend some time on the 4Runner! But I did just recently add a little swag to the 4Runner with a little retro gear.
    I'm planning on adding a mild lift, mostly so I can replace the OEM shocks which really aren't doing much to make the ride nice these days! Gonna try to keep the lift 2" or less, so the tires on it now don't look puny!

    Well here's the "before" the lift pics. I'll post the "after" pics when its done!

    Started it first time since this charge. There is no parisitic draw even with the alarm armed. All systems go I have a vet appointment tomorrow.

    Changed out trash cans at my local park. Thought they were secure, but, one tipped and about twenty gallons of ass water leaked in my floorbaord.

    Yes, I strapped it down. Something happens when a man takes a trip to the dump. Its like cutting your own grass. They wanted that oven even waived the $4 fee. And recycled a few gallons of antifreeze.

    Voted today. 4R ran perfect, the new injectors are pumping fine. Still using the new AC system just to keep it dry. 4WD is cycleing in quitely,
