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

Coated the frame and other parts with Amsoil hd mp, made a new cabin filter, New air filter, ordered the Dorman aluminum oil filter, ordered a filter to do the Uni filter mod, tested my replacement backup sensor to make sure it solved my issue and am now awaiting the bezel rings to replace them securely, and removed a broken trim bolt. So all in all a good day for small things in the 4Runner.

 

those are badass

 

Sometimes you do something small that just blows your mind so much. All I ever did was have a dirty Kleenex stuffed in the small cubby. This just feels so right! Well made by Arcane 3D on Etsy.

 

Registered the new 4runner and got plates today… $1200 ouch! Colorado

 

Yikes!!! ^^^

 

I tore my front driver abs/speed sensor wire.

Cost a $115 for a the new wire.

Works fine now.

Got my 4R all lifted and I’m ready to hit the sand.

 

No wind noise?

I know you lying.

 

Get some of those abs sensor guards. I need to get some for ours thanks to snow wheeling

 

Did the AC drain pipe mod. Did not use a clamp on the connector but added 2 zip ties to secure 3/8 extension hose. Positioned it behind the lower control arm throwing water right down. I think I got carried away with the length.

 

Took it to Discount to have a screw removed and patched from the right rear tire. I *think* they used to patch these types of things from the inside, but they put a plug in it. Not complaining... it was free.

 

Probably a patch/plug, still installed from the inside.

 

Haha for real! It was my biggest concern putting a roof rack on. I was amazed how quiet it was. It's also been weirdly calm here so maybe it'll make more noise on windy days.

 

Patch plugs are pretty universally the industry standard due to liability insurance with the businesses. I'm not in love with patch plugs however, when I was working at a motorcycle shop, no money college kid, put a brand new set of tires on my street bike and on my test drive picked up a screw. The head mechanic told me to just use a patch plug cuz I couldn't afford a new tire... Reluctantly did it because I didn't have a choice and drove on that tire way longer than I should have plus track days! Haha. I don't love them but I do believe in them haha

 

nice glad to hear youre back up and running!

 

Ordered theses today. Plus got another $60 off b/c the Tirerack wharehouse is near me and will pick them up in person. Before after pictures will be posted soon.

 

Interesting! I've never seen that before.

 

None. But they are OEM size.

 

shhh...don't tell everyone about the secret Toyota PRO club

I could not find any Ford emblems, but I did add a 5 Speed badge...

Im looking for a "Fuel Injection" badge next

 

When your wife is a child of the Tetris age! Just a short little trip haha

 

PM me, I might be able to do something with vinyl for fuel injection! Haha
I make things sometimes! Haha

 

Crappy afternoon on the 405! Ugh

 

Technically over the weekend.

 

Are you me? Except I have a fridge in the back along with a Ruffland kennel so I have even less space. It got to the point that I bought an old military trailer that I now tow on roadtrips with the wife, kid and dog.

 

Twinsies! We're looking at getting a barraco Italiano so I might be towing a trailer soon as well! We like a calm house so that means we would have our German Shorthaired pointer and a baroco Italiano. I keep telling my wife that maybe she should consider a sequoia!

 

In VA that would have been $2,300-$2,600

 

Hmmm...do Sequoias use a needle bearing?

 

Also Colorado, and this is why I'll never buy a new car again haha. My title complete notice for my 2010 just came in the mail, and brand new tags would only be $86. I have old tags to transfer so it should cost next to nothing

 

Jeez, and I thought we had it bad in CO. Florida was only like $40 when I lived there.

 

Ha! That's what you get for impersonating a 40th Edition. How daaaaaaaaaaaare you!!

But seriously, sorry that happened to ya' man. That's why you should carry lots of insurance. You never know who is and is not insured.

 

hah! You should be just fine, I’ve had multiple nails and a full lag bolt in my MT’s for over a year - haven’t lost a single psi lol
