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

Sorry for your loss, glad you were able to do all those things with him. Making memories. It’s never too late if both sides can just compromise, went through that with my older brother. I tried and tried every form of communication and he never responded. I never even knew he passed away until I had this feeling in my heart and I stopped at the county office of records. I did a search and found out he passed away 18 months ago

 

Worked 16 hours of the last 24 hours, day shift then night shift. But got home to my boys by 7am to take them in the 4r to daycare and preschool, giving mom a break.

 

Guinea pig for 2025 SPC UCA’s now less than 24 hours away. Also raising the front end by at least 0.65” via Bilstein spring seat position. I’m so excited.

 

A wise man once told me, you’ll never look back and think I spent too much time with my kids. Enjoy every minute, they grow up way too fast.

 

What did you think about the interior? Did it seem worthy of the high price tag or cheap? How about usability of the new storage cubbies, cup holders, back seat space, etc?

 

Cheapness score, this interior felt 50% of what my 2023 was. I don't like softex, but I absolutely did not like the new SR5 soft materials.

I wrote a novel about this new generation. I decided not to post it here, I'm going to find the 6th generation thread and rant there for all to question how much time I have on my hands.

Here is my rant, far from complete, but a rant nonetheless:

theyre like, “ damn, dads ride is a BEAST!!”

 

Still need to install chrome lug bolts but just got my FN wheels Overland spec B’s wrapped in General Grabber ATX (stock size):







Always loved how the TRD FJ cruisers looked with their OEM fake beadlock wheels, tried to copy the setup with my 5th gen. Considered K03s but opted for the ATX after hearing good long term reviews from multiple people.

 

Maybe more like who’s gonna have dibs on the rig when they’re older!

 

Nice! Are these the specs?
Diameter: 17″
Width: 8.5″
Offset: -6mm
Backspacing: 4.5″
PCD (bolt pattern): 6×139.7mm (6×5.5″)

 

Correct That’s what I got, in graphite gunmetal.

For any design/sizing questions, their customer support is awesome. I spoke with Dustin on the phone and he explained everything I wanted to know about the wheels and tire sizing options for what I was looking to do.

 

My daughter keeps asking me to give her my 4R. I just send her the current KBB value and telling her as soon as she has that much in her savings account.

 

I'm not usually a big fan of white letters, but damn that looks great,especially with those wheels.

 

Spent the morning cutting firewood and pulled it home. I have beer and BBQ if anyone wants to stop by and help me unload it.

 

Thanks for this post.
I liked the idea of the matte black cover, so now it looks like this:

 

Went a different route than the badge for the grille. Can't install today but they came in the mail. I will probably install tomorrow when the rain stops.

 

No problem! Looks great

 

Supposed to rain tomorrow but decided to give the 4R a quick wash anyway. Can already see that pollen season is coming in

 

cheers

 

Out with the Wildpeak AT3W's and in with the Open Country RT Trails

 

Are those skinny's? They look good, but the new ones look skinnier than the old ones.

 

Both are 255/80's

 

You'll like them, they ride well on the highway and perform well aired down. Louder then the Toyo AT3's but not by much.

 

Look for trd pro fox shocks.

 

ain’t that the truth @Lucky9924
just look at my 2016 in 2021 before I ruined the 4R in the words of my wife.

 

Just based on city driving they are slightly louder than the Wildpeaks. Interested to see how they do in the rain and snow. I know they don't have the 3 peak rating or anything, but still interested.

 

I have dedicated winters so I can't comment to their snow performance but in the rain they've been sure footed. If you tow they also perform well, at least the C load.

 

That is good to know. I do tow a small little pop up for off grid camping.
