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

I like that, what brand and model is it?

 

Stole your idea @CoastPro4. I like it.

 

Changed the oil and checked battery. Nothing overly exciting…did out the black overlays on my signage earlier this week.

 

the wife and I adopted a new puppy today and gave her a ride home in our 2024. New dog is spoiled, our other dog came home in a Nissan Sentra.

 

Thanks a ton! It’s the Husky Liner aeroskin in smoke. For my 2023, the part number is 2842025. I bought 2 of the exact same…the other went on my 2015 SR5. The only watch out is that it’s a tape application, not a screw in like most deflectors. If you get one, practice setting it in place. I was 95% accurate on my 2015 but 100% on my 2023.

I know for most members this is Pre-K stuff, but if it helps any new member, changing key fob battery -

That's awesome but I don't think I'd have made it through that! Been kicking around a multi day trip out there with a mixed group; built jeeps to stock tundra, hopefully we can have some fun without breaking anything. Got any camping tips for Merus?



New wheels, went with 17x9 -12 and ditched the spacers. Great so far.



Did a 5-tire rotation too.

 

Added Lamin-X fog light covers today.

 

Always try to cut out the middle man

 

I dropped it off for a WoolWax refresh. I have some plans for when it gets back.

 

Those ones look easy to install, I'm referring to the product that only covers the chrome, not any of the actual light.

 

Yeah I went with E's on the next set but I'm not sure it would have made a difference in that case

Nice rig! Merus has plenty of easy trails. Just wanted something challenging so I hit the black (hard) trails!

For camping I'd say during the summer months the rim camp sights aren't as hot but you may get a lot of wind out there. Enough to blow down some ground tents.
In canyon camping you have protection from wind and more shaded areas. But it gets very 5-10 degrees hotter in the canyon.

As a general rule most people camp on the rim during the summer, and in the canyon during the winter.

 

Ahh, also looks good yeah man

 

206 STSE - Its a great unit and we got an awesome deal!

 

Thanks amigo. I’m seeing 2023 ones for sale at 15k. Is that a good price for them? Do they have Ac? I know that’s a weenie question. Haha

 

God bless you!

 

I masked off mine and used VHT to cover the silver.

 

Got around to extending the A/C drain hose past the frame.

 

Show us the dog.

 

Drove the SR5 to work and back home.....45miles of smiles. Decided to give 'er a wash!

 

life is good!

 

Buffed some scratches out. Ceramic coat and tire shine. Ready for more dirt!

 

Yessir!

 

Did you test these out as a high beam at all? just curious if they're a good DRL and high beam bulb. The amber lights look good together!

 

I did, but they aren't so good for bright lights tbh. But having said that, I rarely use bright light. I live 5 mins from work and most I use is fog and low beams.

 

Ordered the Baja Designs S2 Pro's to run as ditch lights along with the low profile brackets and an OEM looking switch.
Does anyone else run this combo?

 

I was really worried about my nuts getting dusty...

So I installed some hatch bolt hole covers...

 

Sick!

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen dudes running these ditch lights, put those key words in the Search feature they’ll pop up. Goodluck!
(from experience, may I recommend ditch light mounting bracket extensions that bolt to your low pro hood mounts. I even used nylon spacers to raise pod height. the light beam will hit a lot of your hood and quarter panel.)
