Took a trip down south of Albuquerque

Couple more videos I've done. One is useful in general, one is useful for not getting ripped off. How to trim / clearance rear fenders on a 4th gen 4runner One tent not to buy lol.

Did some exploring in the desert. First time really putting it through the paces. Did great in sand, climbing and pretty much everything else we threw at it.

Ok so, we don't get much rain here in NM, and I haven't even used it while camping yet. Anyway, we got some torrential downpours and my Yescom 6.6 x 8.2 ft awning decided to fill itself with water because the zipper is upside down when its installed properly. I reached out to them, and they gave...

Thanks dude, I'm in love for sure. Let me get that for you, i am pretty sure they are Amazon johnnies but I could be wrong.

People sure do keep these for a long time, that is for sure. Thanks man. The other nice part is this is one a few racks that are under a grand, so that helped too. If you ever come wheeling in abq, shoot me a dm

I went with this bad boy: Yescom 6.6'x8' side awning Seems to have gone up in price to 121 shipped since I ordered mine a while back... The smittybuilt one is like 183 right now, so that's still a pretty decent savings.

Messed around with the lighting today and got the 42" light bar all all wired up. Now have 2 led fogs, a 14 inch light bar on the bumper, hids and the 42 inch roof one. She putting out some lumens now! No lights Hid headlights only Hids and fogs Hids, fogs and bumper light bar...

Just kidding. Nothing hot boi or fresh about this thing. What it is, is a new to me one owner, 2007 4runner v8 Sport with 180k on the clock that I drove out to Phoenix, AZ from Abq to scoop up. I previously had a Montero on here that I sold when we thought we were moving, then things changed...

It did settle and lower about 3mm. For me (my shocks were blown), the new setup made the ride better in every way except noise. They do squeak quite a bit more. Otherwise handling was improved on and off road for sure.

I wouldnt swap them out as who knows if the pressure difference would cause problems down the road.

Side note, 2 days of driving and no grind to clunk sounds in 2wd!!! Hooray 20 dollar chinese part :)

Oh ya, 03 with now 132k when it went out o.O

No signs, and if my wife would have been driving and the brakes would have lost power like they did, she probably would have wrecked into someone. This is one of those ones you should probably do!

Thanks man! Just ordered that sucker. It was way cheaper than I thought it was going to be lol.

I am in the same boat, just ordered 2 of these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00SO44A96/ I'll post up in my thread when i get them on weds to see if it solved the issue. *edit upon clicking my link I apparently ordered the last 2 lol.

Do you have a link to the rack you got? Here is a video about the butterfly valves I did:

And continuing the never ending story, I have developed the "montero grind to clunk when stopping" symptoms. Seems to be related to vacuum and or some solenoids. I got 2 of these from Amazon (1 to have in the glove box) and it was still 50 bucks cheaper than the dealer quote of 100. Hopefully...

Loud solid beeping, Anti lock, traction control, traction control off and brake dummy lights are all up in my grill... time to get rid of them. Ok I got time to do this. Took about 4 hours start to finish. Not a fun job, but most of the time is bleeding the complicated system. The biggest pain...

Hmmmm Maybe i'll look into the conversion, but I think the ECU would freak out as there are 4 separate plugs that plug in :(
