    Not exactly armor, but does anyone have a clinometer installed on their dash? Any recommendations for brands, models?

    I have a mount for my phone on my dash and installed a free clinometer app on my iPhone. Works great.

    Hey @C4 Fabrication I got you guys added in for sliders and your gas tank skid. Let me know if there are more products. Couldn't find any others while glancing over your website.

    @Relentless, @Pelfreybilt, and others (I don't think anybody else has accounts). Let me know other products as the come out. I know @Pelfreybilt has a rear bumper coming out, @Relentless you guys should have all new skids coming out after armoring up Brittony's right?

    Also if any of you have nicer pics you'd like me using for you, let me know! Any way I can help the better! As long as you send me free things of course... Lol totally kidding, please don't send me free things. I'll feel bad. I just want more 5th gens to get armored up. After yesterday, I definitely need some more armor.

    My skids aren't quite as pretty as they used to be lol

    People are welcome to post some of their own pics of their armor. I'll try to put the best ones in the OP. Just let me know what model and make the part is!

    My IFS Skid from @Relentless isn't quite as pretty any more. And my stock gas tank skid isn't either. Upgrade time! Not bad at all though.

    So every build begins with different stuff. As of today, the new Kippe fire extinguisher is mounted on the new Bracketeer in front of the front passenger seat. Baby steps.

    Thank you for adding us to the list! We did just release our new Lo-Pro Winch bumper for the early 5th gen also. We will be offering one for the SR5 model soon, and also be offering one for the '14+ models soon.

    Gentlemen, it is with great regret I announce the explosive death of my Kidde car fire extinguisher. I was gone for a weekend and returned to find the 4Runner interior to be covered in the fine white dust of baking soda, with many areas stained. It would have taken me hours to clean it up and frankly I am holding Kidde responsible, so I took it to be detailed. I had difficulty at first working with Kidde's customer service folks, but the seem to be working with me now. I will keep the whole crew informed if that changes.

    How hot do you think it got inside before it went off? I live in San Diego and have the same one in the back.
