Happy Birthday to her

Don't forget the pics!! All pics are hear http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/topic/54584-nems-evilinator/page-63 Now everyone knows what a manly man you are working on that in the snow. jk I was committed after I did the rear springs and the snow started to lay. I could tell you many stories from my younger years working on vehicles and tractors on the farm. They seemed to work great all summer, but as soon as it snow and got cold they all broke.

Also for all you guys who don't use Bilstein for replacements you might want to rethink it. On my passenger side shock the C-clip that holds the spring landing has a slight twist in the end. I called Bilstein and showed them pics of this and Junior at Bilstein said he is sending me out a complete new shock because that should have never happened. Bilstein guarantees their products 100% for the life of them to the original purchaser.

I'm closer to 105 than 99, just remembered I took that picture though. As for 200, I hope I blow my motor up before then. I have been eyeing the TRD supercharger that is a direct bolt on for my motor, but I am doing my best not to.
-
The way I am going you never know, I might do something stupid, but will do my best to resist.
-
Thanks Jared. I was surprised at how much coil sag I really had on the rear and bumping the front up .85" sure made a difference.
-
I will take rain over snow any day.

No need get, but you never know. Yes the 5th and 6th gen runner wheels will fit on mine with out any run issues now. I do like the TRD wheels with the fake bead lock. https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CAcQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tacomaworld.com%2Fforum%2F2nd-gen-tacomas%2F255924-6-spoke-trd-4runner-17-wheels.html&ei=vEUbVaP_BsHiaLXLgqAI&bvm=bv.89744112,d.cGU&psig=AFQjCNHGmJ684d_pozKkYYIlAPz1QaCl_Q&ust=1427937021195771

Sean I am currently at 105,000 and want to get to 200,000.

Thanks guys, I have summer wheels and tires that I do not run in shitty weather. These

Sometimes I forget how much I do not enjoy working on vehicles anymore or I am just getting lazy.

Once it gets nice out I will measure to see how much height I gained.

All around I should have gained an inch in height and with stiffer springs in the rear you can not tell it is full of audio equipment and batteries. Next up when it get nicer, summer tires and rims!

After and yes I did this in the snow because it was only to be a dusting not 5 inchs! Rear Front
-
4runner coil left and FJ coil right
-
As she sat before the fun and M5 sent me thin snow, but that was not going to stop me. Front before Rear Before
-
So I decided the old girl needed a little lift. So I put Toyota FJ coils in the rear and raised the Bilstein's up one notch. She looks pretty freshened up and is more responsive, so that is a good thing because that means there is no more coil sag. FJ springs New side window swag.

Sean your snow that you sent my way will not stop me!
