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

Seems like there is some humor in this thread. Is this you? https://youtu.be/BZByvjgem6E?si=3k1-DAAuoEOBCklR

 

Picked these up, OK Expedition skid plates. Build quality is excellent, welds are a work of art. I had ARB skids on my last 4R but the lack of oil filter access necessitating the entire removal for an oil change got tiring. And aluminum will offer more then enough protection for my use case.

 

Those look great . Post some pics when you get them bolted up .

 

Anybody uses a ScanGauge 3 and has any issues with battery drain or parasitic draw?
Looking to get one.

 

Have had mine for two years (since it came out) and no issues. 2018 4R here, love having tire psi now.

 

Great, thanks! Another thing, can you setup the screen to show a large digital speedometer?

 

That I haven't seen anywhere, but you do have "Speed" as an option for a window (gauge), and can go down to 4 windows which makes them a bit larger vs 9 like I have set up on the pic above.

 

Well, Hell, no wonder he hit you. Get rid of that front plate!
Go Bulldogs!!

 

Emptied 4 cans of Fluid Film for this winter season. This is the second time I've done it and the truck has seen some salt last winter and absolutely no rust; this stuff really does work. Stinky at first but goes away after a couple weeks.

 

Got it cleaned up after a week driving the beach, then the hurricane needs in Florida.
Also greased the fittings on the drive lines after all that too

 

New tires. Had the stock ORP ones and decided to go a bit more aggressive.

Stock size KO2s rated C.

 

I personally never liked the upper grill on my 2022 with the horizontal bar. It just looks unfinished to me. My son installed a TRD Pro grill on his 2015 and gave me his old grill. After a couple minor modifications to the grill mounting areas to accept my existing unaltered radiator mount, I installed it. I like the look better now since the upper grill now matches the lower grill. Next up is getting the plastic gutter guard that “Spyder918” (and others) installed.

 

That’s my tomorrow project.

 

Have you used that one before? How is it? I love FF it's been good!

 

Jumped on VLEDs new flicker free DRL/high-beam bulbs in 5K. Finally got them installed along with Diode Dynamics selective yellow fog bulbs. Happy all around with these updates.

 

My new TRD center caps just came in a few mins ago : )

Bling Bling…

 

Waxoyl for the win, did the hardwax plus on my frame and it honestly only took one can. That stuff is great. I did use the cavity wax spray for inside the frame and can say I wasn't as happy with that as it didn't actually aerosol like I hoped, but based on how the hardwax plus turned out I'm a believer.

 

Well shit, when did that come out?

 

What color is that? I have never seen a 4Runner in that color.

 

Is this better than Fluid Film?

 

Is that an OEM black valance or did you paint the silver one (and if so what paint did you use)? Or is it an aftermarket one? Looks great.

 

Wut r u new?! 2016 Quicksand

 

I generally don't comment about other rides........but that looks awesome. The wheel/tire combo and stance is perfect. Well done, sir.

 

Stopped at Lexus to pick up Camry parts.






Then my maintenance light came on


So it was a Two-fer day today.

 

mmm liquid gold

 

285/70/17 as the spare - checked.

 

Fall 2022!

 

OEM TRD Pro

 

I’ll let to know. I used fluid film last year but found some rust after the first rust belt winter.
