E-rated on the F350. SL on the 4Runner. The E-Rating is Load Range 129 on my size falkens. No way i'd run those on a lighter vehicle.

other than the LED headlights, what has changed since 2008?

04 Tacoma: 285/75-16 General ATX (load range E) 02 4Runner: 285/75-16 General AT2 (load range D) 15 4Runner: 285/70-17 Falken WildPeak AT 04 Tacoma: 37-12.5-17 Hankook DynaPro MT 16 F350: 295/75-18 Falken WildPeak AT Only reason the ATX's are on the Tacoma is because I couldn't find any AT2's...

just out of curiosity, why don't you want to run a weight distributing hitch?

definitely go 4.88's. Not worth it at all do go 4.56's, IMHO. Few threads here about the mathematics involved. I put about 100# of deadening in my doublecab. It helped, but i honestly think I need more. The guy who did my 3rd gen 4Runner made it insanely quiet.

such a loaded question. My Tacoma is over weight... but everything except the frame, engine and trans have been replaced. :D

i'm curious... have you weighed this thing since having all the work done? Not going down the GVWR finger pointing direction, just curious how much it's gained since stock.

I'm not 100% sure on the hot wire... But... I'm 100% sure that I would consider hardwired over Bluetooth for something as important as trailer brakes. Nothing against Bluetooth... but I have enough issues with phones and headsets that I'm not sure I'd trust brakes with it.

That's smart. I had (literally) begged Console Vault to make a 1/2 height version for the Tundra... Got shot down hard.

my 04 dcab is 4.88's and 285/75-16s. My 02 4Runner is 4.88's and same size tires. 4Runner was geared when I purchased it. Hindsight being what it is, 5.29's would have been a much better choice for the doublecab. The automatic's OD is extremely tall... do some mathematical comparisons to...

Scangauge reads higher

Weird, isn’t it? I have pulled the topper of my dooblecab twice since it’s been on.. like being in a different truck..

And you made a purchase decision based only on empirical data and nothing else, right? There is only one honest answer to my question, btw. And you know what that is. But will you admit it?

I agree that under 200 is a good target. Anything over 220 is worthy of concern. I have two gauges on my tacoma - scangauge and actual temp gauge with sending unit between output and first cooler. I watch both, and I trust the automated more than the scangauge (since I don’t fully know how well...

How many people in this forum can honestly say they own any Toyota because they did months of independent research and determined the Toyota is more reliable and cheaper to own, as you claim? I’ll help: ZERO. Not even you.

Stihl fits better in my f350... and my tacoma... and my 4runner.. and my jk.... But no experience with the f150... ?

That’s a crazy number. Try East Coast Gear Supply (EGCS). I had them build and ship 4.88 diffs for my tacoma for less than $2k (no ARB’s). Installed, shipped back my old diffs, received core charge back. Super simple. No idea if the do Tundra’s but well worth checking. Doesn’t look like they...

Your statement that the ford frame is 1/2 ton and the Tundra closer to 3/4 ton has no proof points behind them. And since the tundra is down one lug nut, clearly that would invalidate your claims that more is better, right?

I think Scotty at Addicted Offroad had a write up about the 4th gen 4Runner sport rotors, somewhere. Is that similar to what you did?

very true. Frozen Rotors/Hawk pads were a huge difference from stock.
