The great looking for Runner! I love the stance. I just got one too, I'm looking forward to modding in a bit and getting it Off off-road. Some sort of East Coast meet up would be awesome!

Great looking 4R! I just got one too, also in silver. Loving it so far, and I'm hoping to get it set up something like yours pretty soon.

Just picked up this '13 Trail Edition 3 weeks ago. I love it so far! I have mild plans for a build, the first thing will be a good set of all terrain tires, followed by skids and sliders. Other than that, just odds and ends that will make it a little bit more livable and handy for my...

I was a lurker for a bit, I had seen various youtube channels that kind of got me interested in this, as well as seeing how it could mesh with my main hobby, mountainbkiking. Once I decided I wanted to purchase a vehicle I registered to ask some questions. Got some great advice, and am now...

Just curious, how does having DSTC interfere with the lift? I have an '07, which came standard with DSTC. The nice thing about that is A) it actually works quite well, and B) it allows you to turn off Spin Control, which makes it more fun for shenanigans in the snow.

I've seen some people advocate facing the scoop backwards, which would negate any (questionable) ram air effect. One of those mushroom type scoops would eliminate that as well. I wonder though, has anyone seen any tests with any air filter analysis or other hard data to see if there actually IS...

If you have a gut feeling, go with that. Better safe than sorry. After all this (hopefully) cools down, go ahead and reschedule the trip then.

Is that a selectable locker? Meaning, can you engage and disengage it at will? If it's not, and is an auto locker, I would say that wouldn't be great in the snow and ice, especially the front. You know how with the rear locked if you hit the gas you fishtail the rear end toward the curb...

NICE! I'm looking to pick up one of these myself. Is yours stock height? And I love the color, btw. Jade green is one of the best Toyota colors ever.

OP, One more vehicle suggestion to throw into the mix... I don't think anyone has mentioned this one yet, and it's one I think I've settled on. First gen Toyota Sequoia. Based on the Tundra, so you know they last, a Tundra with that 4.7L V8 went 1 million miles. I look at them as a 4Runner...

I would probably go with a V8 ZJ. I had a 4L ZJ, and it was a dog once I put 31's on it, not to mention 16mpg highway. Coulda had a V8. Only downside is the fulltime 4wd, but a NP242 swap is fairly cheap/easy. I did it on my 4.0, as it came with the 249 fulltime case. You're right on XJ's, the...

That is a great looking ZJ! I had a 97 with the 4.0, I really miss that thing. Well, no so much the 4.0, it was a dog. The best ZJ is a 96-98 V8 with a swapped in NP242, IMO.

Oh that's interesting, I still thought people there mostly drove around in little tiny cars. Didn't realize the F150 was even sold there. Oh, and off topic, but I see you're from Somerset. I live not too far from Somerset, Massachusetts, which is right next to Swansea, which I think you have...

Do you even overland, bro? Everyone knows you can't overland without a snorkel. lol, j/k, couldn't resist. IMO unless you regularly drive through 3 feet plus of water, or live in the desert where it's always super dusty, it's an appearance only mod. And if you ARE driving through water that...

That's Subaru's trick for convincing American buyers to purchase one. They caught on that tacking some plastic cladding on it fools the majority of American buyers into thinking that they're buying an SUV and not a station wagon (or estate car, as I believe they call them on your side of the pond).

Some cool looking rigs! I remember when that last gen Montero came out...the one with the rounded from fenders. I thought they were absolutely terrible, haha. Now though, on the rare instances when I see one, I think they look pretty cool. I'll have to watch some of the videos, I always...

Thanks for the response! I read about it on Mud, apparently there was a bad batch of internal parts that can effect the 00's, slightly overlapping late 99/early 01. I've seen a few people say that if it was going to go, it would have went long ago, as they seemed to go pretty early on. That...

Aren't those barely bigger than stock? I don't know the WJ's offhand, but I know that size came STOCK on certain ZJ models. When I ran the 245/75/16's on my ZJ, they measured right around 30" mounted and on the vehicle. I had a buddy who ran 265's on his WJ with a 2" spacer lift, it all...

Looked at a '00 LC yesterday. It popped up on the local CL, and was only a few miles from my work. I wasn't that interested in that particular one, but I wanted to check one out up close. This one was black over charcoal grey 2-tone, with tan leather. He popped the hood and started it for me, I...

Thanks. Yeah, for sure. I consider myself very lucky for the way that went down.
