Nice rig! Two quick questions for you. How was the paint quality? I have a black Pro and the paint was a mess when I took delivery. Also, how’s the beat sonic working out? Noticeable difference? I’m on the fence about it. Thanks!

zgreen, Thanks, likewise. I'm not to happy with paint quality. I'm on the fence about the PPF had it on a GM vehicle 3 years in when I wanted to replace the PPF and they removed the film it took some of the paint off the hood so I'm not to sure could of been GM's paint could of been the removsal guys either way it sucked, since this paint is so questionable I'm still thinking about it. Have it shceduled for the 24th but not sure I might just do ceramic and call it a day.

I think the beatsonic is definitely worth it, much clearer sound and I don't have to turn the volume up as high. Can get the same volume out of it turning the volume up to 38-40 vs maxing out the volume previously.

Yeah, the paint quality seems to be pretty horrible across the board. My dealer has to repaint my hood and send it out for a full body paint correction. Then I did a full body XPEL Stealth PPF, which I really love. Not planning on taking it off, so I’m hoping the paint holds up underneath.

That’s great to know about the beat sonic. Did you get the top of the line one with the bass output or the one without? I was thinking about the one without. Looks like a pretty straight forward install as well. Did you have any issues?

On the recommendation of the Beatsonic guy since I wasn't going to run a separate subwoofer I just got the cheaper one and it's perfect.

How do you like the Radflo suspension setup so far? I’m debating on getting either the Radflo or eibachs when they come out.

How do you like the Radflo suspension setup so far? I’m debating on getting either the Radflo or eibachs when they come out.

So I have always been a Fox guy. I have used them on all my other builds including a few long travel rigs. but since they didn't have an option easily available yet and having heard some nice things about Radflo I decided to give them a try. Radflo like a lot of others use Eibach springs as well, when I called and told them what I was looking for they couldn't have been nicer. I had my choice of coilover spring rates, shock heights regular or extended and how I wanted the shocks to be valved/set up so basically I got a custom set up and it only took a few weeks, in fact they arrived before my vehicle did. I ordered a spanner wrench with them and had to do some minor tweaking as they gave me a little more lift than I wanted. I was able to dial them in perfectly at the exact height I was looking for and set them up to compensate for driver side lean as well. Ride quality is superb on road and what little off roading I have done, nothing hardcore yet. So far I am very impressed with the shocks and the customer service as well.

Thank you for the info! It’s always nice to hear someone’s review on a product before buying. I’m strongly considering Radflo now but before I decide on anything I might give it some time for other companies to release their suspension setups.

Hello, sweet build. I was wondering what spring rate you went with in the front?
Stock 4Runners always been a bit “floaty” in the front in my opinion.
Thanks.

Yeah, I agree with you 100% but I did end up going with 500 pound springs which are the same as the stock spring but the Eibach springs seem to have a little bit different characteristics and so I wanted to give it a try and I’m super happy I didn’t bump up to 550 because it’s a really good ride and the way they tuned the shocks super happy with them. It’s not floaty at all and it doesn’t nose dive when you slam on the brakes either, overall it’s a great ride.

Where in VA are you? I'm in NOVA but noticed you removed your running board? Are you looking to get rid of it? I may be interested!
