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

Nothing crazy (the lift not the wife LOL), more of a leveler kit from maxtrac, 2.5 in the front and 1.25 in the rear. Looking at a 3” OME full lift or ICON later this year when i can get my ‘53s engine replacement done and get my garage space back haha.

 

I didn't take any pics directly from the side, the 275/55s are fairly close to having the same overall diameter as the OEM 245/60s (31.91" versus 31.57"). They're noticeably wider though (10.83" versus 9.65").

 

Divorce her immediately. She obviously doesn't 'get you'.

 

HAHAHA

Too expensive to divorce, would eat into my money for my playthings!

 

@ComfortRacing
HAH Ain't that the truth

I won't even divorce my wife when she repeatedly suggests I have adult relations with my 4R

 

Yep already accused of that as well @djwantke

…but of course she just asked if she could drive it tomorrow since our street is flooded thanks to winter storm Finn. “Yes dear” SMDH

 

tbf, the interior noise of the JL/JT is still not great and no sound system will sound that wonderful.

Finally threw on the squadrons I got for my Rubicon rear bumper last year before I traded it in to fit the kiddos (2dr). Swapped the lenses out for the combo pattern. They’re not the LP6 duo I had before, but they’ll do for now until I figure out what to do to light the country roads up.



Next up is getting some UCAs to install with the Westcott perch kit so the 33s the previous owner installed quit rubbing at full lock / minor flex.

 

The JBL sound levels are in metric. Once you convert, it comes out to 30.

 

I could never get a sound system to sound right in my Rubi or any other jeep i owned. No matter the quality or power i put thru it.

i cannot wait to upgrade the sound system in my ORP. Not bad but i want better for sure!

 

Sound advice! My wife was the same with my Tacoma until she got her 4Runner now we battle over who gets to spend what on their rig…

 

@TacoGeeloor i like it! Yeah she needs to loose the Prius and get her own rig for sure! Told her 3 weeks ago let’s get a pair of 4R TRD ORP and was ready to drop the checkbook on it but she shied away from my offer. Oh well for now! They had 3 on the lot too but at least i got mine…um ours or whatever i should say!

 

Absolutely! We are a Toyota driveway now finally! She had a ford explorer before and I hated that thing. She loves her 4R and wishes she’d of done it sooner.

 

My fiancé has a Lincoln Corsair and she loves driving the 4R. The only thing I’ve heard her mention missing is lane centering, which her Corsair has.

If Toyota puts it in the new 4R or LC (I haven’t seen press on LC packages, maybe it’s been announced), I can get her in a Toyota.

 

Lane centering? Do you mean when you cross lines on road, center or shoulder?? My 2023 TRD PRO has it. I can turn it on or off.

 

I think he means when the car will turn the wheel for you, not just give you the warning.

 

Oh,
My wife's BMW gives a weird vibration in steering wheel, scared the out me when I was driving & looked at radio.

 

Ford Exploder's really are the worst, all of em lol
Sick driveway !

 

I went for a winter ride

 

I ordered a 98 Explorer Sport, kept it till 80+k miles on it, never had an issue W/it.

 

@LCJ77 okay maybe I don't mean literally every single explorer, but heck you had it only till 80k so somewhat still true. I find the newer ones are even worse, my mother in law's was horrific

 

I trade all my vehicles between 75-90k,my 2018 TRD OR had 63k when I traded it last Nov. I did keep my 93 Mustang GT to 115k that I traded for the Explorer.

 

Do you mean Lane Keep Assist?

Toyota calls it Lane Departure Alert: https://www.toyota.com/4runner/4runner-features/tss-p/

Lane Departure Alert

By detecting visible white/yellow lane markings at speeds above 32 mph, Lane Departure Alert (LDA) * is designed to issue an audio/visual alert if an inadvertent lane departure is detected.

 

Does the 24 have steering assist as well or is it a mistake from Toyota on their website?

 

I'm pretty sure it does. All the auto makers are putting the "Nannies" on cars now. But, you can manually turn off (most of them, not all), permanently. I have the Steering Assist turned off on my SloRunner.

 

Interesting. I don’t believe MY22 and earlier has steering assist. Only the visual/audio warning

 

Removed everything from the top

 

Changed intake tube to HPS silicone tube. And fabricated another cup holder for the center console.

Lol for absolutely no reason.

 

Nice, cool change up
What hitch tire carrier you rocking? Any side view pic
