Changing the look up, got some 17" FJ Cruiser Alloys and 285x70r17 BFG All-Terrains.  Definitely awesome looking, and not too many 4Runners with these rims which is a plus IMO.

Installed a tranny temp gauge to keep an eye on transmission temperatures.  It's an AutoMeter Digital, and fits nicely down by the shifter.

Installed picture of the gauge:


Installing the gauge was very easy.  For the hole I used a 2" hole saw; the gauge fits very snugly in it.

Added some auxiliary lighting to the front for those dark roads.  Hella 500's and replaced the fog lights with cheapo Wal-Mart H3 mini-driving lights.  The combination overall works well.

Went and wandered around in the mountains, cycled the suspension a little to test the fender trimming.  Everything clears pretty well  thumbup

I decided the Hella 500's weren't bright enough, so I upgraded to some Hella 700FF's and added a DDM Tuning 55W HID conversion kit.  They are very bright, and I'm much happier  clap

After my passenger rear shock expoloded, I decided to upgrade with a set of Rancho 9000XL's.  I picked Rancho part number RS999040, which are made for a 2000-2006 Tundra. They are approximately 3" longer than stock, for increased articulation.  I had to drill out the lower bushing to make them fit correctly, but other than that they were a pretty easy mod!
