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

I went with a Harness from FBC, and paired it up with Diode Dynamics HP48 LEDs for DRLs and like the results.

Absolutely, Looks like you scored a rare Off-Road, at least in my region.

 

I can't think of anything I've done to a vehicle that caused so much anxiety. It was around midnight, and I had have it put back together by seven to leave for work.

 

Right!?
That’s hilarious
I had higher pressure than that, the truck is my wife’s daily to work, she would have buried me where no one would find me if I f’ed things up

 

110K oil change. Here in the rust belt, using anti-seize on every bolt has made maintenance so much smoother.

 

Installed the Greenlane Offroad sliders with full deck. These guys make great stuff and their service team is very responsive. I had to work out shipping time due to my travel and they were very accommodating.
Light but strong aluminum with beautiful welds.

I do have a set of my old N-Fab step bars available in south central CT. They are in great shape.

 

I know, I know but I had a road trip planned! 2,100km in northern Ontario and Quebec. Used gas line pipe and screwed the flange into the plywood so I could simply unscrew the legs and store the platform in the backseat on top of the Trunk platform when not in use/ driving.

 

What roof carrier is that?

 

Just swapped out the stock wheels. Need better tires but it’s a work in progress

 

Does anyone else wash their truck before a roadtrip? lol

 

I wash it before, during and after the trip. I'm OCD as fuck.

 

Always. I like to start with a clean slate.

 

Did it!!!

 

Swapped the lower beam from 55w H11 to 65w H9. Also installed H9 in my fog lights.

Unlike 14-20 which came with a 19w bulb, 10-13 came with a H11 55w bulb, same as the low beam in the fog light assembly.

This should give me plenty of light for night driving. The OEM H11 are some of the worst halogens out there for low beam.

 

Not something I did but sure will try next time one of my friend asks.

 

What have I done WITH my 5th Gen??? Heading down to Yakima tomorrow for some NDN tacos with Travis Lucky Boy on the REZ.

 

Its a Thule Motion 3L on factory crossbars. Because the carrier sits so low to the roof (which i love) my sunroof isnt fully functional anymore but I hardly used my sunroof before I got it so not a big issue for me.

 

Great sliders for your nice looking rig!

 

Few days back north CO got baseball size hail. Sometimes I wish I went your route and have aftermarket seat heaters. There are places here that install Katskin (can’t remember the exact spelling) Seat covers with heating. Can get both front and rear seats heated.

 

By chance does anyone know will the chrome lugs on trd off-road wheel work on trd rim or is there another oem lug i need to use?

 

Same nuts…different day.

 

I always wash my car before a road trip then I put on some rain X or hydrophobic spray/ wax. I only do that before a road trip, if I'm going I want an unobstructed view from rain and bug guts.

 

They work. I have them on right now, and they came from the dealer that way.

 

You'll be better off with the H9 upgrade or finding 2021+ OEM LED headlamps.

 

No thanks. LED H11/H8/H9s for me and my friends.

 

Bruh...you live in North Texas. We only need seat heaters for like 4 weeks out of the year.

The 4Runner does worse with those type of LEDs.

 

Have you thought about putting a rack to protect the sun roof? I know it’s not the best if you never use a rack but that’d be one way to do it
