I was close lol!!! And yeah i agree, i like a more subtle looking rim. I'm going to get these powdercoated gunmetal with a yellow lip once i get some money lol. And in real life they aren't nearly as shiny, the camera lies.

And yeah i think i'm going to shoot Wabbit an email and mention that.

I'm getting off now, time to lift the rear!

 

did you guys get the gears in yet?

 

your yota is looking aggressive

 

No we ran out of time. It's just lifted with stock 4.10 gears.

Thanks man! It was dark when we finished but i should be able to snap a few pics tomorrow.

 

FINALLY it's done! Pics tomorrow! BIG thanks to Craig (Wyoming 09)!! Also he gave me an 82' Supra AFM!!

 

'bout time! haha, no, but seriously, glad you could get stuff done. what all did you actually do?

 

why, for some reason, do i feel like im reading the script for "as the world turns"?
lmao!
16 pages of chat to 3 pictures... kinda like DC's SAS thread! bwahahaha!

seriously tho, runner is lookin good...
what did you do about the u- bolt flip?

 

 

Did you get the U-bolt flip done? Sorry I never thought to mention the lower shock mounts, I am planning on welding some from TG or Sky on top of the rear axle tubes.

 

that is why only lift got done !

 

x2 x2 x2

it's tomorrow already! or did you forget to change your clocks?

seriously, though, you know you have a good rig when you have an entire page of nothing but folks asking for photos

 

BJ spacers, add-a-leafs, new shocks all around, u-bolt flip kit, and welded new bottom shock mounts to the rear axle.

Had to weld new shock mounts to the rear axle.

I can't right now, well i could but it'd still be on stock 28"s. The Outlaw I's require a special lug nut.

I made my own and welded them on the axle.

lol!

Like i said earlier, i can't put the wheels on because the lug nuts are not meant for the Outlaw I wheels, i need special lugs. Well i could put them on i just cant drive anywhere with my truck then lol.

And yeah i guess people like my 4Runner lol

 

The truck leans to one side pretty noticeable, i'm assuming the alignment shop can just crank the t-bar to make it even? Also it pulls super hard to that side, i'm assuming from the lean lol.

 

I would like a pic of the lower mounts if you can.

 

Supra AFM, 180* thermostat, and fuel filter!

 

I can when i get home. I'm at the library right now, it's the only place i get internet since my neighbor stopped sharing theirs.

 

RIGHT ON, BRIAN! Yeah, I want some pics.... s'all good though, who cares what I want if it'll make your wheels fall off, right? hahaha. Anxious to see though.

Far as the lean, it's mandatory for alignment to follow Spacers and other things...which you obviously know already, lol.... But alignment is done a lil differently than just torquing the T-bars, from what I remember. The 'LEANING' part... you mean it's sagging on either the driver or pass. side, right? Answer:__________ hahaha.

Also, just to let you know, SOME will say "A FRAM????", others, "A STANT? NOOOO".... lol. I've found mixed messages from people on the fuel filter brand that should be used WITHOUT questions(MOST of those opinions leaning to OEM), lol. But I can tell you from experience, Brian.... You WANT an OEM Thermostat. They're just superior, period. The filter, I would imagine, would probably last a bit longer if it's OEM as well.... But the Thermostat..... I've had 2 Stant's Fail on me in only a couple thousand miles. The OEM that I had before that? 100K miles.

Anywhoooooo, best wishes on the alignment and "NO ISSUES" with the suspension stuffs... and have FUN, wheelin her, soon! lol.

Congratz, Brian.... and thanks alot, Craig, for giving your expertise!

 

I'll get pics up ASAP!

And i believe the lean is on the passenger side.

The fuel filter was given to me by the previous owner. And the reason i got the Stant thermostat was because it was a 180* thermostat not a 212* which is factory (according to my FSM). If and when it fails or if it doesn't cure my overheating with the heat on problem, i'll switch to OEM.

I think i'm going today to get aligned. Hopefully i won't have to hold the wheel at a 30* angle to go straight lol.

 

Personally I would wait for the alignment till you got those 33's on and make sure they clear your front fender-wells at full stuff lock to lock and you wont have to raise the torsion bars again. Because when you do the alignment will go out of whack again.

 

i agree with xxxtreme22r i got mine allingned after i got my bj spacers and then about 2 months later my passenger side started leaning so i cranked up the passenger side t-bar more and didnt get it allighned and now i cant keep a passenger side tire for more than 3 months with out it getting bald. lol
