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

You're a talented badass my friend, that's sick

 

I have a growing sticker collection. I’m not a sticker guy, but lately I’m having trouble resisting lol.

 

Yeah, it’s messy. I used woolwax, but same idea. Use cardboard or a throw away tarp to cover up the ground. If you do it inside a garage, cover up any equipment if it matters. Use old clothes that you don't mind throwing away.

After a good first application, touch ups or doing spots you missed isn’t that big of a deal though.

 

Great advice
I didn't take POR15 rust paint seriously when it said the shit is permanent once dry. Do not apply when wearing nothing but a pair of shorts lmao

 

Haha yesss come to the dark side
I paid the Runner off it's currently my wife n kids daily, but one day it'll be a bush truck with steel bumpers n sliders etc. I'm a lil ahead of the game with the redneck stickers

 

I’m well on my way to making my 4runner into a bush truck. So maybe that’s why my unused stickers are starting to bother me. I’m going to need to take up hunting or get some land to round out the look lol.

 

Can you send a link where you got the solar panel?

 

Saw this the other day, I think she's got you beat. And most of hers are on the paint...

 

That Kia must have over 1500 hp

 

I can tell you something I didn't do...

Great ad.

 

Got my windows tinted yesterday, front sides and windshield. I did ceramic XPEL Prime XP. Came out well and can feel less heat toasting me while driving and feeling cooler already.

Next, bought digital tire pressure gauge (Jaco) and to release air. Used it twice. Works well and pretty fast. About a minute to get tire from 36 psi to 25 psi

Lastly, to fill said tires back up I bought Smittybilt air compressor. Works great and fast so far. Took a minute to get from 25 psi to 38 psi.

H*ll yeah my man, the bush is the Runners natural habitat. I tell everyone who listens long enough, I'm going to win that Lotto and all I want is a farm and land and chickens and a horse for my wife.

 

Slick ride, so nice [reminds me when I finally received my '16 Trail off the boat from Japan - ORP came to Canada in '17]. WELL DONE

 

HAHA I thought you were going to say this reminds me of Derek

 

I have the Rago molle panels and the shelf. They're good. I'm curious what kind of hardware they're including these days. The shelf hardware was a little short. I got a bunch of my own hardware to fix that.

 

I thought you might enjoy some competition from the local crazy cat lady! You're gonna have to start covering your skid plates with decals now. Maybe all the users of this site can just mail you unwanted decals and see what kind of crazy collage we can create on your truck?

 

Well, against my better judgement… But, I will put this in the ‘better to have them and not need them, than need them and not have them’ category.

However, they should be nice when the NH winter kicks in.

Hopefully I get more life out of these than the Toyos…

 

4x4 mudflap decals on the etsy page if anyone wants/needs them. I designed them to have the retro OEM feel without having to purchase new mudflaps.

Not what I did today, but what I saw. While leaving the local House of Waffles, this "Battle Wagon" was parked in the lot.

 

All that needs is molle webbing on every single surface throughout the interior, including the headliner, and then the zombies won’t stand a chance.

 

I did the interior conversion to LED. Looks like daylight inside now. And I can’t get the driver side map bulb out to save my life. Grrrrrr. Had to give up before I busted the bulb.

Before


After

 

In the last month
Black third brake light that pulses.

Ceramic Limo tint and clear bra. Installed in Chanel window visors. Can’t find one that fits moon roof.

Roof rack/cage/basket whatever you call it

 

Poor beast of burden. Maybe he should try out putting a spare tire up front where the jerry can is, to help with weight distribution

The jeep could totally rock that style. Especially with the top down lol

 

If you open the sunglasses holder, there are 2 screws holding the overhead unit. Unscrew those, pull the whole thing down. Undo the electrical connector, and then you can get at those bulbs from the other side....much easier.

 

Dropped it off for tire re-balance/rotation & alignment @ 62,530 miles. 36k on the Cooper tires.
They called & said frt are chewed up why I have vibration @60mph (I know that) my fault as I was too lazy to rotate them from 12k ago, $39 ea. road force bal & 149 alignment. Not sure if that bal. is high or not as I used to go to my buddies shop & do them my self, but he's since sold & retired.

 

If this works for me I’ll be your new best friend.

 

I’m getting my front re-balanced. She is wiggling a bit. Says I need pads and rotors. Yay me.

 

Any recommendations for front and rear pads and rotors ???

 

I love you so hard right now! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

5 min. Easy Peasy. I was about to bust it out and clean up the mess.

 

I used small hemostats. Used to use them all the time to R&R "Peanut" bulbs in the overhead of the Gulfstream I used to maintain.
