What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

It looks like a Rigd UltraSwing.

 

C4 FABRICATION AUX BATTERY TRAY is coated with rubberized rust protection and installed.

 

C4 FABRICATION ACCESSORY TRAY - spray painted with body matched Nautical Blue... and installed.

 

Nice! … Thanks for sharing
Would like to purchase for mine in the future. I own a Metallic Grey so what rattle spray can paint did you use; did you prime & clear coat as well?

 

I actually purchased 1/2 pint of same Toyota color code at automotive paint supplier. I did not prime or clear coat... I should clear coated... I keep 1/2 pint in my garage on all cars for just in case... touch up for paint chip... rock chip...etc...

 

Wired up a power panel for my upcoming lights and such. Made the mount out of some 1/8 aluminum. Bought the relay box off Amazon.

 

Thanks. Bought it from Detours of Maine.

 

Installed the Desert Does It Seat Jacker with the molle panel and I was actually surprised at how much more comfortable the seat was. I'm 6'4" and do sit a little taller in the seat but still do not hit the roof. Install took like 30 minutes. Highly recommend!

 

Can you send me info on how you mounted the light bar?

 

I definitely should have asked that...duh.

 

do they make a similar rear hatch fro 3rd gens?

 

haven't had enough dry weather to do much here in Titletown / Tampa Bay area, but rain beats the dickens out of what the rest of y'all are putting up with. Did the relay trick so power outlets would be "always on" in my 3rd gen, no pics, but search it, truly easy clean useful fix. Now wifey can have her morning coffe without wasting gas, lol.

 

Looks good. Does any part of panel touch or rub the vehicle around the rear windows? Thank you.

 

Broke 50k miles.

 

Shouldn't be any rubbing
There's enough clearance between the panel and plastic molding
Depending on your lifestyle...consider cali raised molle
Top tip: use insulation on the windows

 

Thank you for the information! I appreciate it. After seeing the Cali Raided molle, I prefer them over the Rago.

 

New tail lights!

 

Temperatures warmed up substantially yesterday to about -20°C from the -30's we had been having the previous two weeks so I took the 2020 4Runner into the carwash to clean some of the road salt off of it. Brought it home and parked it in the driveway over night. This morning when I got in to drive to work, the 4R was frozen in place, the rotors were frozen and the wheels would not turn at all. Had to drop it into 4WD in a low gear to break the rotors free from the ice. That is the second time this has happened with the 4R this winter. In the 9 years that owned my FJ, the wheels never froze up once after washing it in cold weather.

 

drove down to long beach island for a weekend away. picked up my beach buggy pass for the year but a lot of the beaches took a big hit during that last nor'easter so it wouldn't have been a very wise move to actually drive down on whats left of the beach. was bummed about that, but still a nice quiet weekend! drove around the island alot which was fun.

 

Not at all

 

Installed a K.O. hood scoop from Amazon that was half the price of OEM. Realized that it was garbage and boxed it back up and since OG scoop was out, plastidipped it and now I have black hood scoop.

 

Cleaned her up from all of the road salt. Thoroughly cleaned the inside. Installed AVS 23071 Bug Deflector. Placed outdated membership decal on back window that I’ve had laying around for months. 2”/1.5” lift and 275/70/17 Falken Wildpeakes were installed last week. Have to meet with Discount Tire tomorrow after I realized while cleaning it today that they scratched two wheels mounting or dismounting the tires.

 

Killer decal.

 

Thank you for the response. They look really good!

 

That decal is awesome!

 

Added the Mesocustoms trailer hitch and Baja Designs S1. Set to come on with my reverse lights.

 

Finally got those FN FX Pro Dark Gunmetal. Still rockin stock suspension (for now) and stock 265/70s. With BFGs and these wheels.... Sooooooo close to rubbing but no rub.

 

I was checking that out the other day on their site but was hesitant about how much usable reverse light it would throw out? Does the light make a difference when your reversing?

 

That little S1 is bright, more than doubles my light output even with the DiodeDynamics Tail as turn module.

 

Added the LFD 7/8ths Rack and a Gobi Ladder
