I love this 4Runner! I think it's now my favorite. Thanks for the peel & seal tip. What size tires would you use for daily driver? Will you use 15" or 16" rims?

Thanks!!! I am going to use the same 16" rims, but I am going to go with 265/75/16 tires. I probably won't be able to afford them until December, HOPEFULLY.

*added a link for peel and seal. I guess it's 25 feet, not 15. *

OK, LED pics added. and I am not sure why the photobucket video feeds don't like to cooperate, so they are posted here.


LCE magna flow out, Flowmaster 50 suv in.

And on the road, flowmaster 50 suv. Mind you I didn't have the soundproofing in for the LCE setup, but this is way quieter.

Don't mind the rapo van in front of me. That was my excuse to hit the throttle to get around him. LOL.

Sorry you have scroll up and down to compare. I tried.

And my hood decals are messed up. That crack in the windshield made it $100 cheaper. LOL.


Did you even look at the LED part, dude?

At some point it looks like you put clear corner and bumper lights on the front. They look great with the white paint. Are they from eBay? Did they fit okay?

Yup, got the set off of ebay. I cracked one while out wheeling at Evan's Creek, but I sealed it up with some silicone and ran it as is. I had no problems fitting them in, whatsoever.

Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks. Since its a DD, there won't be too much left, but there are a few little loose ends I hope to clean up soon.
