That is good news.
I enjoy wiring, it just takes about 10 times longer than I expect it to, especially the routing of wiring. I find soldering relaxing.
I replaced my front cat today. Hopefully that takes care of my CEL. The cat was definitely damaged. Now if I could only figure out what's clunking in the front end. It's coming from the driver's side. The steering rack has a bit of play in it, but I'm getting a metal clunk when I turn and hit a bump.
Check the LCA bushings. I know on my 4runner the LCA bushings are shot and I get the metal noise when going over bumps.
I'm guessing this is the culprit. With 218k on the stock bushings, they've gotta be moving around a bit. Who did you get your bushings from?
I just went to Rick's muffler and they threw one on for $385. They said it was a high quality one, that's all I know. For $85 they can analyze your system and find out which component is bad (front cat, back cat, front o2, rear o2). I took a gamble and just replaced the front Cat since it has 218k on it. The front O2 was recently replaced, so I figured it was probably the cat. We'll see if the CEL stays off.
I actually like the looks of the snorkel w/o the RTT. But don't worry, the RTT will be going back on before WOTR.
