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

I went with the ironman and it's super nice. However, depending on your roof rack you might have to buy different mounts that are compatible.

 

gobi with gzila mounts
I’m looking at this guy plus a couple others
Comparable in price plus the sales are good(probably their winch too)

gonna have to build longer adapter plates for the clamps I already have

freestanding?
If so, are the deployable poles that tuck in pretty secure?
Get the light strips?

Also any reason you went driver side?

 

I activated the keyed window up/down and remote window down function. Like the tailgate key up/down, it works on the four door-mounted windows using the driver's door keyhole.

I am starting an underseat lighting project too.

The driver's door window up/down function does not work on the tailgate window.

 

Hell yea!! I want this so bad!! Sweet~

 

Did you use a bidirectional OBD2 scan tool?

 

The tailgate window isn't linked to the other windows/sunroof. I haven't seen any options to control the rear window with the key fob.

 

How? Do tell and link please?

 

Which sucks because my 3rd gen 4runner had a button for the tailgate window down, Don't know why toyota didn't put that on the 5th gen.

 

Yes!
I loved this button on my 4th gen.

 

Added flag mount today

 

Well, not exactly done today but over the last several days...installed King suspension, new RRW RR7 (-12 offset) wheels, and Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT (285/70/r17) tires.

 

Looks good. I hope you like the wheels as much as I like mine.

 

We did it today. And you were spot on!

 

Great looking rig. Curious how you are going to like those MT as a daily, especially in the rain on road. Best looking tire both functionally and appearance wise available now IMO.

 

Lots of little things today:
Seat Jacker adjustment
Relocate CB to Seat Jacker
Factor 55 flatlink swapped in for hook of death
Rotopax mount (2) relocation to trail swing
2nd Arkon mount for tablet

 

EXCELLENT!

 

Factor 55 Flatline is what?

 

Ugh, flatlink. Stupid friggin autocorrect

. Nice!

 

How do you like the Seat Jacker? I was going to order those soon.

 

So far I like em! Drive about 800 miles last weekend and it was not too shabby. I just moved my CB down the their mollee panel and it’s no issues on sitting.

 

Plus you get plenty storage space under the seat. I put four 4x4's under the seat for that extra lift using the bottle jack. And there is room for the "anti-carjack/SHTF device" as well.

 

It looks like this right now

 

Don't you like the ones that have all the controls on the hand set so you can have the big box under the seat?

I was thinking something like this -


On another note, do you know of any low profile tunable cb antennas that does not need a ground plate like those GMRS ones so I don't have to remove parking in garage? If I can have them on the crossbars it would be soo awesome.

 

I was gonna have other things under there so wifey bought me this one as a gift. And now this is the one I have

 

Lasfit ditch lights installed. Need to aim them and rewire my switches this weekend. These replaced my Amazon special ones.

 

Have only had them for about a week now, and on dry pavement I'm super impressed so far. I'm coming off the Cooper ST Maxx which performed great off-road and in most cases/conditions did great on-road but were loud, especially near the end of their life. They did okay in rain, but I've heard good things about the MT BB ATs and they have the 3peak rating. They're much quieter on-road than the Coopers.

I'm optimistic that they'll be good but only time will tell.

 

That should work..

 

Watch that bungee cord, it might interfere with the hatch latch.

 

I was just kidding..
