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

@TrailSpecial22 @MI4Funner

 

Nice, I know if i tinted my windshield the next day I would have a crack and have to replace it.....

 

I feel better knowing I'm not the only one I gotta do this too.

 

I got a Teton shifter set myself last week. Went all black, but I think you can get the G10 side plated separately from them to change colors. Great quality, look and feel.

 

Looks great. Did you get the matching transfer case shift knob? I was torn between the Teton or the Ellis Precision myself. Ellis Precision did some custom engraving for me so I went with them.

 

My water bottle only fits if I take the rubber out. Just trying to help my wife out. I do like the ones @2016SR5P mentioned. I might try to 3D print some.

 

Went with 3” of Toytec and new shoes…. and JBAs

 

What wheels are those? Like those.

 

I did! And I have it matched up like you did with the liners with the red trim!

 

Thanks! I think they turned out pretty good. Tandem Off-road - https://shop.tandemoffroad.com/products/612-charlie-gun-metal?rq=mk_toyota~md_4runner-5g~yr_2021

 

Got these from Bullet Proof Fabricating: BPF 2010-2023 storage rear panels. 100% aluminum and they are shipped RAW, so I spray painted them as you see. Lightweight as each weighs only 3.5 lbs but are strong enough for my “stuff”. Sure was fun organizing these.

Check out also my Rongtaod Back Seat Cover Protectors. Disclaimer: I did add MORE Velcro strips to keep them more secure to the back seats.

 

What shovel are you running? Trying to find a decent option that isn't an arm and a leg for a darn shovel.

 

It’s the Yeacool Folding 40 inch survival shovel. I left 2 of the mid sections out (placed in the tool bag) to shorten it as you see on the panel. On Amazon for $43.99. Comes with a bunch of stuff too!

 

Cool, just ordered one

 

Drove through some flooding today. Easy peasy…

 

got the same brand, different style.

 

First ones I’ve seen that pay attention to valve stem protection. Nice!

 

Plus their lightweight(23lbs) and budget friendly. To bad their sold out.

 

Just scored a newish 285 BFG to use as a spare. 120 bucks and doesn't even have 200 miles on it. Now to find a wheel to put it on.......

 

I glued indoor/outdoor carpet onto my sleeping platform. After it cures for a couple days, I'll wrap the edges and fasten on the underside.

 

Nicely done, good call!
I've bought three spare 285's in a year, cheap FB marketplace lol
I honestly gave my spare steely a look. Well made Japanese wheel. I recently dropped it down first time, cleaned, lined up Albion Tire by the river to wrap it - $30

 

Fine taste, you have!

 

Yep, got mine on FB marketplace. Thought it was a scam then after a week I decided to see. Not sure how this tire lasted that long.

 

New lift going on today

 

These are amazing. I love mine too

 

Ohhh I like the matte!

 

Do they add anything function wise? I don't mind the xfer knob but the oem gear shifter looks ugly to me. And it frequently moves so its not always pointing straight.

 

They just look better and feel better IMO. They also stay put and don't come loose or rotate around.

 

With the Monsoon season creeping up, changed the shower material shroud to a tarp material shroud for added water protection, and instead of magnets around the edges changed it to velcro to keep the edges down when the wind blows. Additionally, because of the diminished sun availability due to cloud coverage added another 400 watts solar panel--it barely makes it two days of AC usage but it's all I need for two days. With record-breaking temperatures this week in the desert, 110-119F, still sleeping comfortably inside during the day.
