This one looks simple and describes the process much clearer. I'll give it a shot.

Anybody have experience installing a new telescoping antenna? The youtube video made it look easy. Itsnot! :confused:

since my beloved 85 was stolen, stripped and left for dead in the forest back in April, I have since acquired a 2001 4runner. I must say, at my advancing age, it's nice to have a heater and ac. I even have a working clock on the dash. lol Several things to get used to though. The horrible gas...

Now I'm wondering if I do a spring over on the pop up to get more clearance for the steps, how will it affect this?

Turns out my rush to lift the back is not necessary. Everything looks nice and straight.

These are really bitchin neoprene covers, fit tight and protect your seats. However, because they are neoprene they need to be conditioned regularly which I neglected to do as you can see by the pics. They still look great even though they have some issues. And as I stated, they are 10 years old...

So, I've settled on this. I can afford it, I can do it myself in Chris's driveway (although he doesn't know it yet, lol), and I won't need to make any further adjustments. I'll get the 5". As I go I'll take some pics of measurements and let you all know how it works out. Thank you for all your...

Or I could go with this which again, Amazon says they won't fit.

According to that add Amazon says these will not fit my 85 4Runner. But that's a good alternative if it was the right size. Thanks.

I'm thinking about installing these longer shackles in the rear. Anybody done this before? Do I need to think about shocks, cables, hoses (gas tank), brake lines, drive shaft? https://www.ruffstuffspecialties.com/catalog/6SHK.html

https://www.wetokole.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=honda_fit_seat_covers-Pattern&yr=2009 Spendy, but worth it. I've had these in my Honda Fit for 12 years. If you take care of them they will last forever.

Also I want to replace the shock across the front. Is that the steering stabilizer?

Anyone have an opinion on what the best bang for my buck would be on new shocks all around for my 85 4runner? I was checking out Ranchos on Amazon, they looked pretty good.

Thanks Danny & Jesse for getting that new tranny in for me at the last minute so I could make the run. It shifts like a hot knife through melted butter. Also got my first McGrew carnage on the "bypass". Pulled it out a little in camp so I could open the door. Not sure how the rock fared. :steer:

Can't wait. Pretty sure a few years ago I got hung up on a rock on the bypass and had to be pulled off. :hillbilly::deadhorse:
