4th Gen 4Runner E-Locker Axle Swap: Weekend Update

Aug 06, 2018

Great news!  I got the “splotchy” curing issue taken care of (no thanks to Corroseal’s customer service), and it appears that there just wasn’t enough on the surface.  With a second coat over the weekend, everything is looking great! Here’s a sneak peek: It was brutally hot and humid this weekend, plus I’m taking my […]

4th Gen 4Runner E-Locker Axle Swap: First Update

Jul 31, 2018

My axle was delivered in all of it’s glory last week, and I managed to maneuver it into my garage and get it on jack stands.  The eBay seller’s description was “has surface rust”, and they are right, but it’s a lot!  Doesn’t look like the axle was ever cleaned off…Overall, it really wasn’t that […]

“eimkeith” Panhard Correction Kit Ordered!

Jul 24, 2018

Unfortunately, my axle has been delayed by the seller…I’m starting to get a bad feeling.  He says he got a terrible freight quote and is looking for another.  Today is day 20 though, and as far as I know the axle is still sitting in NY state. Hopefully I get a shipping confirmation soon! The […]

New (to me) Axle Ordered for my 4th Gen 4Runner!

Jul 17, 2018

So, I was previously debating what route I would take for upgrading my rear differential and axle setup here.  After much deliberation, and a stroke of luck, I decided to get an early model FJ Cruiser axle with e-locker. When browsing eBay, I found an assembly for sale that included shipping.  On a whim, I asked […]

Thoughts On Next Big Upgrade for my 4th Gen 4Runner

Jul 10, 2018

I’ve been having an internal debate on what my next big upgrade should be for my 4th Gen 4Runner. I’ve been reading a lot about the prominence of failures in our 8.0 rear differential and it’s making me think long and hard about what I want to do about it.  I am not an extreme […]

Falken Wildpeak A/T3W Review: A Versatile Tire at a Great Value

Jul 09, 2018

I’ve had my Falken A/T3W tires in size LT275/65/18 E on my 4th Gen 4Runner for over a year now (New Tires and Suspension Thread) and I feel as though I’ve driven on them enough to give a proper review and account of my experience.  Though I am a Discount Tire affiliate, I still buy all […]

Prinsu Rack Install for my 4th Gen 4Runner

Jun 04, 2018

Install day for my Prinsu Design Studio roof rack finally came.  When preparing all the parts and laying them out, I realized that there are no instructions in the packaging that the rack came in.  Not to worry though, because Prinsu has all of the install guides online HERE. After reviewing the instructions, it was […]

Just ordered a Prinsu rack for my 4th Gen 4Runner!

Apr 20, 2018

I finally pulled the trigger on a new roof rack! I’ve been working with my Rola for a while now and it’s just too high profile, and I’ve found that I would much prefer a flat rack for all of my trips to Home Depot. The prinsu accomplished all of that at a great price […]

Another Great Experience with RCI Offroad

Mar 02, 2018

I wanted to take a moment to talk about RCI Offroad and the great experiences I’ve had with them over the past couple of years.  First of all, they have great products. But they also have great customer service. I first gave them my business when I bought a fuel tank skid for my 5th Gen 4Runner.  […]

For dessert, my wife’s home made cheesecake! Just when I thought the weekend couldn’t get any better, I […]
