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

Before started to go to Dr. appt.1K on odometer. Big Deal for me ,because I used to commute 22k a yr.!! Now work from home & bought his one W/3 mi on it in early Nov. Now I hope my Co. continues to let me work remote!!!

 

Added some color, basically some test vinyl for something larger down the road...

 

That’s sharp, subtle.
Nice contrast. Well done

 

Nothing exciting honestly. Chrome door belt molding on limited got switched out with the black.

 

NICE I wanted to get this bumper but could never get in touch with Billy to put a deposit down, I looked at nguyenworks & outgear but went with nguyenworks because I wanted panel rather tube.

 

I did the whole bath remodel. Vanity, toilet, tub, tile... Granted not in one trip.

 

Nice man, that's a lot of work
I highly dislike plumbing, and risk of leaks haha

*Update:
I took my old leaky toilet and rubbish to the dump w/ the whole family last night. Kiddos really gotta kick out of pushing the toilet over - smashing into the pit of death

So question for all the soothsayers out there:

I was trying to replace my rear wipe blade a few days ago. And when I did, the nut fell off and now I can't find it. Having said, I had to take the old wiper blade arm off because I accidentally broke it. So I know it's a 10 MM flanged nut. Will a hardware store do or is this something I better get from the likes of Autozone?

I know the bolt it connects to supposedly is fine threaded.

 

Ace probably has one. Give it a whirl. Hope it works out!!

 

Easter egg: hidden cigar

 

Finally got the drawer slides installed (a bit tight). It was too late to get pictures with it in the 4R (interior shot from previous mock install). Hoping to get out and camp with the wife soon to make a test run at the platform.

 

This looks great! How are you attaching the panels to the seat backs? How much clearance between the seat-back panels and the trunk panel for it to clear when you raise the seats?

 

Thanks! The panels lay on the seat backs. I designed it so the top of the panel (closest to the front seat) just sits on top and then the bottom of the panels attach to the leveling part of the platform. I wanted to be able to take the panels in and out without having bolts and have the ability to leave the platform in.




I don't have a good picture of just the platform clearance but I can put the back seats up completely and the L bracket on the back of the platform doesn't touch the seats. Here is a picture of just the base of the platform and no wood.




Not sure that makes any sense! Haha

 

Makes perfect sense. Nicely designed and well executed! Thanks for the ideas!

 

Added a rear tire cover and a simple window sticker.

 

Amen!!!

 

Not today But if,IF we get the snow they're calling for I'll be driving my wife to her co-workers daughter baby shower. She won't drive her "rear wheel drive BMW" I told her they're made in Bavaria they get way more snow then we get(IF we get any, haven't had any measurable snowfall in Philly area in over 700days!!) I may take ATV down to shed & put plow on. Haven't had to do that in past 2 winters or I should say LONG ass fall here NW of Philly!!

 

Greetings from Doylestown area!! Let’s go snow!!! Waiting to try the AT tires just put on.

 

Just installed a Thule Outback awning. Pleased so far. It has a hard case (no flapping or tearing), 3min solo set up and no guy wires needed.

 

New wheels, eiback suspension.

 

Just joined the forum. I have a '23 Limited in magnetic gray with redwood interior, daughter has a '23 TRD ORP in Lunar Rock. I've had mine for several weeks, but couldn't resist the urge to mod it up some: 275/55-20 ATs, low-profile vent visors, splash guards, Airaid CAI, and a Summit Racing oval muffler. Have an oil catch can on the way, should be simple to install (at least from watching several Youtube videos).

 

Added an interior rack. Nothing special, but def freed up some space.

 

A friend gave me his old 2 inch lift springs ( he went to 3 inch). I have a 2022 stock 4 runner. Will the old springs work and will I need to replace the shocks.Just trying to stiffen up the rear end on my 4Runner.

 

Finally, somebody tells the truth about the 22R

 

I leave mine on indefinitely, it's our fridge when on the road and our garage fridge when in the garage.

 

Bolted glass breaker inside of armrest.

 

Got new shoes!

 

installed a fire extinguisher

 

upgraded roof rack jerry locks to Master all-weather padlocks & coated braided steel
Thanks @PVT Pablo

 

@Burnt Taco I forgot you lol
But I finished the Apex recovery points last month, drilled out frame
