    Tire recommendation needed for ride quality and mild offroading

    I can agree with that. I had a similar predecessor to the LTX and was very happy. Long wear, quiet, good road manners, and good on snow covered pavement. Obviously they don't work as well if it gets muddy and slick off road but if that's not a significant part of your intentions then you'll be fine.

    Tire recommendation needed for ride quality and mild offroading

    I don't know if your tires are super old or worn out, but I've been very happy with the three sets of BFG AT tires I've bought new. I had one set of KO's and two sets of KO2's. Never noisy for me, balanced once when new and never had a problem til they were removed. They all lasted a long time...

    1st Gen 4runner Project: My COVID-19 Build

    I've never had to use a tank sealer before so I can't give any real advice there. How bad is the inside of the tank? Tightly adherent rust may look ugly but cause no actual problems.

    Paint looks great! Nice to see all the shiny bits going on. Just a word of caution on that gas tank, I've read many reports of the tanks leaking where some internals are spot welded to the bottom. Takes months to appear. Definitely hold on to the OEM tank in case.

    Tire Deflators - What Do You Use and Why?

    I agree with Tommy. Set and forget, then screw them on and screw off for a few minutes while they deflate.

    GX460 "tailgate" for side opening door

    I somehow missed that in the title my first time around. I have not heard of such a product. It seems like it would be an expensive thing to R&D and then produce with a very small market of customers.

    Tire Deflators - What Do You Use and Why?

    I use an old set of Stauns. They were within 1 or 2 PSI of my set point the first few times I used them so I've stopped checking. I trust them. They might not deflate a single tire as fast as the ARB deflater, but I have four Stauns so I can deflate all four at once.

    GX460 "tailgate" for side opening door

    You talking about the tailgate/liftgate/back door? What 4Runner do you have that has a side opening door?

    Ground Path for High Current Accessories

    Your 1600W inverter theoretically draws 133 amps at full throttle so the 100 amp breaker will trip if you put a decent load on it. Watts/voltage=amps. It may not be a problem if you don't actually approach that much draw. The only thing I'd run a dedicated ground wire for is a winch. Everything...

    Cummins Canoe (A Stepvan Story)

    It takes very little to make a seal. What's more important than anything else is having clean surfaces. Rubbing alcohol, brake parts cleaner, or acetone can be used for this. Besides this, it's not rocket science. Don't use so much that it drips and falls off inside the engine.

    Cummins Canoe (A Stepvan Story)

    I've done it both ways with success.

    Cummins Canoe (A Stepvan Story)

    Looks fine to me. 90% of it squeezes out anyway. As long as it's a continuous bead without gaps it'll be fine.

    Couldn't not post this lol

    Not sure why it's getting all the hate. Sure it's a bit messy and the interior is dated but it doesn't look that bad. At least it appears that it was used and enjoyed which is better than a lot of the vehicles on this site. And they're not asking a ridiculous amount of money either. Which is...
