Well the problem is, it isn't as simple as removing a few parts. To install the drop bracket lifts, the normal front differential mounts are cut off to install the brackets. So they will have to be welded/fabricated I believe. You'll need stock 4x4 spindles/knuckles. You'll need shorter rear...

So just a couple extra thoughts. Compare truck A (2" lift with 33" tires) to truck B (6" subframe lift with 35" tires, steps, bull bar). Truck B has 1" additional clearance under rear axle. Truck B has 5" additional clearance under frame and rear hitch. Truck A has 1" additional...

Guess it's too late to return it huh? Honestly the Tacoma front end is too light weight for 35s in my opinion. Even with 33s you'll feel some give in tie rod ends, bushings etc in normal driving. Having a subframe lift and spacers really isn't doing anything for you anyway. Usually the rear...

My Dakars came with a bunch of grease packed in them but didn't last long before they become noisy. Maybe a month or two? And it was dry.

Yeah the pond liners are temporary. Worked great for a short while but it works its way out. Dakars are squeaky for sure, it's obnoxious. No holes punched for isolator pads either. The extra leaf makes it worse. Right now I just soak the contact points in silicone spray monthly or when they...

Nice looking 4Runner. Been thinking about one for my wife, but with the way the oil and gas industry is right now I'm not spending any more money for a while.

I use a single hitch step, this one. http://m.summitracing.com/parts/plt-as-551?seid=srese1&gclid=CjwKEAjw4s2wBRDSnr2jwZenlkgSJABvFcwQ0WCDiuiN0fbRzjar4K5yukYQ_TEQy1LxL-cAPsQrhxoCjanw_wcB Works fine for my wife and I but most people would find it sketchy or too tall for a single step.

The front diff is a bear by yourself huh? Maybe it was just me with a bad neck/back, and not lifting the truck high enough before starting. I'm loving the 4.56 gears too all around, though high speed mileage suffers of course. The FJ wheels do have a little less backspacing than factory...

The wife, daughter and I spent 9 days in Idaho. Mostly around Boise, with a trip to the sawtooths to stay at redfish lake, followed by a drive through sun valley and back to Boise. Lots of nights in various drive ways in the camper to be honest. Our daughter got sick, I got a sinus infection...

Unfortunately hardy anyone has these aside from you. Hence no comments. Id love to see some pics and measured ride height with camper though. Most of us have come up with other solutions. I'm using OME Dakar springs with their extra leaf, upper overload removed, and using timbren rubber...

Yep.

I bought them from the forum sponsor, trdparts4u.com I just briefly looked and only saw the black and the silver wheels in this style right now.

I have the blue sea 7622 ACR, love it. Very simple and effective, easy to override in either direction or leave the switch in auto. 500 amp continuous rating for winching, jump starting, high output alternator etc.

Very cool, glad to see he took the suggestion on the raised profile. That was the only spot I had water intrusion on mine. Re-tightening the screws around the base seemed to fix it, but that little lip will definitely be a big help.

I installed the synergy ball joints with around 5k miles on my JK on 35s. Huge improvement over stock, even with 5k miles on them. Ran those pretty hard for 15k miles before I installed a tera44 axle with new synergy ball joints again. Greased everything at 3k miles intervals and had no...

Cool! Good guys at that shop, I was happy to be able to order my fleet and pick it up from them.

Well it definitely looks better! I hear you on the littering. I've been seeing more and more in the last couple years close to home. More and more people are moving in for high tech jobs from the south and mid west, and camping spots and river play spots are starting to look more like places...

If you already think it's sluggish, you're definitely going to feel a 2" increase in diameter.

Many of us prefer the ride and handling of a boxed frame that provides a stiffer chassis. It absolutely makes a difference, especially off road. I don't care if it is "stronger" by your definition of being able to carry more weight, I prefer a more rigid frame. Simple as that. I had an 06...

Additionally you can buy trays to hold two group 34s in the same location for a few (25-30) extra amp/hours.
