FS Denso Iridium plugs IKH20, stock front skid plate, Garmin in/on dash nav.
4 Replies
Purchased the plugs and then realized when the TRD SC was installed at 20K it had plugs also - supposedly good for 100K. Will sell for $7.50 ea + few bucks shipping. The front skid plate from my TT…Continue

Looking to add removable steps to my OEM rock rails
13 Replies
I have the TT SE OEM rails (I assume same as any OEM rail?). Anyway, I recall reading where a member here or in the FJ Forum had found steps that fit nice and were just bolt on. Girlfriends been…Continue

John Hanses replied to John Hanses's discussion FS Denso Iridium plugs IKH20, stock front skid plate, Garmin in/on dash nav."Not sure I got all that. I'd swap the gps for just your stock glove. I'm mechanically inclined so figure removing the gps box shouldn't be too difficult - just didn't want to do it without a stock one to replace…"
Bz replied to John Hanses's discussion FS Denso Iridium plugs IKH20, stock front skid plate, Garmin in/on dash nav."I can do the swap and I have my old driver's side glove box if your down in the bay, I can pull the GPS unit and lone the glove box to ya till you can whoever you sell to can it to ya

Purchased the plugs and then realized when the TRD SC was installed at 20K it had plugs also - supposedly good for 100K. Will sell for $7.50 ea + few bucks shipping. The front skid plate from my TT edition is heavy and in the way, so, never put it back on after my first oil change. I off-road a fair amount but not much crawling and such. I use my droid for Nav and like it better than the Garmin. It's all wired in, so, if someone was near by, I would be happy to swap for the stock glove…See More
John Hanses replied to STOLI 757X's discussion ICON stage 1 vs Toytech ultimate 3inch lift"I'd go with the ICON. I have the Toytec and it's too sloppy. Flipping a u-turn with any momentum feels like I get one front tire off the ground due to the rear and one side squatting - serious, I want someone to watch to see if it's…"

"Ouch!!!! Sounds like it was probably worth the flight and / or the memory alone. Had a flight like that once at night out there in a 4Runner that luckily landed well - so I've got a great memory of it but not all the photos! Mine was off a top…"

Toytec Ultimate 3"
Can't say enough about this lift! Quality of the build and fit were great. I ended up installing it one night by myself, which made it more difficult than with another hand, so considering that it was pretty straight forward. In fact I may have gotten away without using a spring compressor had I had help. Only complaint was that Toytec used different sized bolts (13 instead of 12mm if I remember) for the front skid plate - it gets dropped with the drive line so you get spacers and longer bolts.… Continue

- The ride is much better but I lifted and leveled also at the same time - but I guess that's probably saying a lot. They don't make anymore noise than the BFG surprisingly. And they look like RT's - very aggressive, especially with the sidewall treads. Check 'em out in person and you'll be sold unless you're going for total off-road tires maybe. Just got them and so I've only taken them on one trip into the Sierras but they cleaned out good in the mud with a "punch" and did great on rock.
