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

I like that!

 

Installed aiden james camera reloc kit.

 

Second larger NorthStar in (was limited in size on tne pass side one). This one is larger, heavier, packs more amp hour (and cranking amps, because i know many dig that, im more of a amp hour guy, although the those numbers, can kinda go hand in hand)
Anyway, was worried about the size, but, slid in like it was born to be there.

Cheers all.

 

Yeah, I've got the spacers installed as well, it just didn't feel like it was fitting very snugly even when shimmed up and tightened down. Hopefully it's just in my head, and it'll hold on fine, but, I'll know tomorrow on my way to work once I hit that damned gravel "road". *laughs*

 

Some heavy iron! I used to be an Ops Manager for an oil company's flight department down in Houston and we had 3 G550s. Such beautiful airplanes!

 

Finally had nice enough weather up here to get my Apex Fabworks sliders from CaliRaisedLED installed. She looks so much better!

 

@Reldn, as reference, mine fit very snug with no issues. However, I did not like the look, so I took it off. Good luck w/ yours.

 

saturday: installed the victory center console molle panels. i like them a lot and they seem very sturdy. also installed my midland mxt 275. zip tied the bracket to the cc molle for now. gonna mount it in the glove box after i get a different antenna and mount.

sunday: went on a trail ride in the NJ pine barrens which was a lot of fun! radio worked great and the 4r did awesome. nothing insanely technical, but good, fun, bouncy trails with some water obstacles. couple people took some water videos, so ill post them if i get them.

 

also need to know what product @ipnpulz used on his engine bay because after this weekend, mine needs some serious help!

 

how do you like the rack? i have the 5 rod rack which i will be putting on shortly.

 

Added a Pedal Commander. Wow, this is fun

 

Took both rigs for a drive to Leavenworth, Wa for beers and German food.

 

I have always used Simple Green using this process pretty much. I'm going to get the stuff this guy recommends and next time see how it works.

does simple green work? i think i have some of that already.

 

That’s what I use. Just spray it on a cold engine let it sit a couple of minutes and hose off is the way I do it.

 

Haven't driven with it yet, but it seems pretty good so far, I'll know more after I get it on the beach with the 12' and 13' rods together hanging out over the hood.

 

ha yeah im curious about the 12 footers i bring to the beach. we shall see!

 

plasti dip the roof rails until i figure out what i want to go with for the basket..

delivery came in while i was doing the rails.. was excited to put in new side mirrors w/led turn signal but suma sent me the wrong mirrors, smh..

 

Well, my concerns were for nothing, and the exhaust tip held on just fine!

I also called and got a quote on getting my Eibachs installed. Amazingly enough, it's going to be a lot cheaper than I had expected! Now to just find a time to get an appointment set up....and to see about talking my Wife into letting me purchase that NFab roof rack I've been eyeballing. *laughs*

 

Picked up my awning from ups and got it installed after work. Either I over looked it or ovs forgot a strap so I’ll check the box again tomorrow (left it at work) and if it’s not there reach out to them. I need to adjust it out some it’s hitting the rear hatch slightly when it’s deployed.

 

Nice! I would like to get one in the next year or two for camping. Love the aerial view. What is the front portion attached to ...hood?

 

Like Crossfit4Runner said, yes it does but I use a plastic dressing afterwards. The Simple Green seems to dull the plastics a bit. This other stuff seems not to do that.

 

No ran back to the backside of the front runner. I have eyelets on every crossbar to attach straps to.

 

Total dad-gear effort. Raingler ceiling net. Loved the one I had in my previous truck so knew I had to get one for the 4Runner.

 

Added some bling to the wheels over the weekend. Exercised 4 low and diff lock

 

Got her the Toyota LED fog lights. They seem to be the best compromise price/quality out there. Made in Mexico, about 125 delivered.

 

Simple install but handy addition.

License plate flip.

 

I removed my front mudflaps to match the rear deletes. It looks way better!

 

Yes sir. California seems to have become more strict about running a front plate. For years and years we didn't, but like much else. Those times have passed.

 

Good to see you over here
