    4Runner

    If you`re looking into a 3rd gen, you can get leather and a rear locker, with a good lift, it will go just about anywhere, provide a good driver/spotter, and you can supercharge them, lol If you go with a 4th gen, the V6 is a selectable 4wd, and the v8 is full time 4wd, someone correct me here...

    80 Series vs. 4th Gen 4Runner. Thoughts?

    I also found that funny. Bottom line is, you can compair stock vs stock all day long, doesnt matter,,,, Its the driver that matters, its the driver that counts. I know great drivers that can wheel anything, anywhere. I know very bad drivers, that if they had the very best built rig, couldnt...

    99 Tacoma with Rev Tech 3" lift - thoughts?

    IMHO there is nothing at all, wrong with a spacer lift,, I ran spacers on my 4runner for about 4 years, and wheeled the piss out of it, they are cheaply priced for the lift you need for larger tires. If you`re not going to wheel it hard, Id leave it. As far as the CVs, many times you put a...

    Front Axle replacement

    Ive replaced 3 on my 99 with aftermarket CVs, and zero issues. Replaced one on the 04 with aftermarket, and zero issues. On the other side, Ive heard of a couple of people having nothing but problems with the aftermarket CVs. IMHO its a hit or miss, with aftermarket from places like NAPA they...
