It will stop working just like the actuator in your T4R. To keep it relevant, here is my ‘89 4Runner that I just finished welding new quarters and front fender arches into. I also built the Bimini top to keep my dogs out of the sun. Frame on that is now black.
Site seems to be OK. Load issue should be resolved now.

Re: I Am A Happy Camper!
You looking at doing a lift? Mine had a really basic 3” Rough Country lift with coils out back, and strut spacers up front. It was fine for my needs. The red one and my 100 series both have Old Man Emu Kits. I really like their stuff.markiver54 wrote:Looks exactly like mine. Just not lifted....yet...

Re: I Am A Happy Camper!
The Cummins hasn’t had any issues, but I’ve had 2 transmission failures in 92,000 miles. I do tow and haul with it (it’s built for that!), but nothing severe. It’s still a great truck and drives like new, but I’m aware of its potential issues...BigAl52 wrote:Is the Cummins powered Ram a problem?Redthies wrote:Just to clarify, my THIGHS are not red.
