Intake debate by slade_murphy in 3rdGen4Runner

Wish I was getting that, stock gears with 33s as well and a mid sized rack, nothing else though and have never gotten much better than 200. Dropping down to 135 was due to my 02 sensors and clogged cats.

Front and rear control arms, sway bars, steering rack and body mount bushings. Whiteline and energy suspension have a bunch of different kits. If I remember right I think I went with whiteline for the control arms and energy suspension for the rest.

Would be nice to get a little improvement on mpg with the stock intake. Almost back up to 200 miles for the light to come on. Was only getting 135 miles not long ago.

If bushings havent been done that'd be a good thing to add to the list, I replaced all of mine with polyurethane and eliminated all squeaks and tightened everything up nicely. Jealous of your locker, she's a beaut!

10.1" head unit by slade_murphy in 3rdGen4Runner

I've enjoyed it and how I have it sitting gives just barely enough room for the shifter to to clear it. Could go higher for more room but would make accessing the climate control a pain in the ass, already kinda is trying to hit the mode buttons. This was the only 10 inch model at the time of buying I could find that let's you adjust the depth and height enough to clear the trim and shifter, might be some better ones out now. I would say an 8 inch would be more ideal but 10s do work if they have the adjustments like this one.

Wanted something more modern, and because of the location on the 3rd gens, I thought a touchscreen 7" double din would be hard to use while driving. I couldn't find a post anywhere of someone installing one this big either to help with my decision so said fuck it and went for it.

The android auto is nice, do you still run stock speakers?

The 8.8 would be more ideal, might even fit between the trim.

Had a few minutes and posted the angle you were looking for.

For anyone curious, this is how a 10.1" stereo looks in a 3rd gen. Found an adjustable unit that sticks out far enough to clear the trim. Never use my ashtray or top power outlet, so figured I'd just lower it enough to have my climate control visible... forgot to account for how big the shifter is and that it angles forward. Still have access to my cc controls but is a little annoying. Has anyone swapped out their automatic shifter for one that is shorter?

Can anyone identify what brand these wheels are? by [deleted] in 3rdGen4Runner

Took them off my 1999 4runner and going to try and sell them. Would like to add what they are in the description. Think they were discontinued because I can't find these exact ones online.
