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

Honestly, I didn't look to see what was behind that part of the bumper while it was off. I happened to catch part of it in a picture while I had it off. Doesn't seem to be much to work with.

What state you live in?

 

Installed my Diode Dynamics SSC2 Pro ditch lights. Install was pretty decent. I'm not that great at cleaning things up, but I did ok. I can't wait to see what they look like at night.

 

I know exactly what you mean, my passenger side does that. What I noticed is it has nothing to do with what's behind that corner, it's the grill at least in my case. I have a aftermarket Pro grill and it doesn't line perfectly up with the holes in the center. I was playing with the alignment and when it's straight, it pulls that corner of the bumper tight in. When it's off, that corner pops out...so annoying but unless I change my grill back to stock (which I don't want) I gotta live with it.

 

Please post pics of their output on the road at night of you can! Thanks!

 

The 4runners just sitting pretty in the garage at home. We packed up and took a flight to Longboat key Florida. Our rental car seats 7, and does 0-60 in less then 6 secs...



I wonder consider one these just in previous years the Nissan 5.6 had some issues

 

The output in pics with my iPhone didn't represent what I see. Pics seem to always make them look better than what my eye sees. They are pretty bright for just 2 LED's and they don't stand out too much. I would like a lightbar for more distance, but I don't have the right grill setup for it. If only I still had my Pro. If I keep this 4R after my lease is up then I will get a lo pro bumper and put a 30" in there.

 

Picked up a Thule Pulse M Cargo Box for the TRD Pro rack. Fits like a glove!

 

FedEx Damaged it in transit. Made it all the way to my city and was returned by Fed Ex ... Should be here today, shll see.

Can anyone recommend a good paint/coating?

 

just go big and bedliner it.

 

Can't beat a good prep, zinc primer and powdercoat

 

I have quotes requested for powder coating.
And it begins again, no long arriving today... tomorrow maybe

 

Finally added some 275/70s. And yes it rubbed on the fender and mudflap with UCAs and 2.5 lift. Easily fixed but rubbed way more than i thought. FN FX Pro Wheels at 0 offset. The difference in looks from 265 to 275 is staggering. I love it!

 

Looks great! Can you feel the weight difference? Those 275 Wildpeaks are heavy. Debating between 275 and 285s currently.

 

I can feel it but its not super significant. i already had BFGs on there prior so it was slow regardless. Thought it would be worse but not too bad.

Thanks, could be better but I had to leave a little slack to be able to lift the cover and get to the factory fuses

 

Hit some trails at Hidden Falls this morning. I need 37s and lockers so I can hit more trails. lol

 

Threw on some S2 scene lights, also welded up and painted my reciever for my rear bumper

 

Hey man… not going to be able to make it next weekend. Good looking mods. Super bummed I won’t see your rig and have good conversation.

 

Found out tonight that if the 4R is locked and I walk up to it with the key, without touching anything, the interior dome light comes on.

 

You need to hang out with your vehicle more.

 

No worries man, I’m sure we’ll meet up one of these days

 

Finally got around to putting in the cargo mat for the third row. Not sure why they don’t come with this one but come with a one piece that has to be taken out for the seats to be used. But happy with it now and the seats are actually usable now.

also got my leveling kit put on yesterday.
Cornfed 1.75 front and .75 rear. Got an alignment and the TRD wheels mounted up on some stock size ATs. Very happy with how it looks now.

 

nice, my office is just down the road in Holmes Beach.

 

seen this today while on my weekend visit to san diego..

land cruiser.. 1970s from the pics I compared to google, but not certain.. anyhow this classic is a beauty..

 

Looks like '76-78. Those front turn signals started in '76 and the grille changed for '79-83. Great find. Thanks for sharing the pics!

 

nice! thanks for the info..i wasn’t too sure..

 

Today and this past week I changed out the interior lights (i.e. in doors and mirrors).



Also added a rear OEM cargo mat (no pic).

But did add some emblem covers from R4T. Very easy mods.
