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

Finally got around to installing my Switch Pros 9100, SDHQ customized panel for the SP-9100's button module, and Power Tray.




That MPG is wonky because I had the battery disconnected while wiring things up. I really don't get 0.1 MPG.




And I went ahead and cranked the front Icon coilovers up a little to level the stance. Of course, the nose will drop a little again after my SSO slimline bumper and winch arrive and are installed. Maybe I'll upgrade to 700lb springs after that happens.

 

That’s entirely possible. Also doesn’t help that you have different expansion and contraction variables at play between plastic and rubber

 

Thanks! I am sold on the adjustable remote reservoir shocks.

 

Would love to know the details

 

I purchased these wedge LEDs from eBay which are a perfect light blue.

And used a .25” LED lens (from 04 Scion xB cup holder illumination kit)which fit nicely to house the wedge LED and diffuses the light evenly. Can’t seem to find these clear lenses anywhere.

Just tapped to the shifter indicator illumination which works off factory dimmer circuit.
A cheap mod with great results. I also use 2 of these LEDs for footwell lighting.

 

So, no socket? You just wire directly to the bulb?

 

This is a good website for wedge bulbs. Actually, all bulbs in general. Lots of different kinds. Takes some hunting but whatever you need is probably there. It's like a website from 1995.

I got 265/70/17 KO2's installed on Saturday. I previously had 285/70/17 Michelin Defenders on and the difference in braking, acceleration and handling is remarkable. Can't wait to see how they do on the beach and in the snow/slushy crap we tend to get a lot of here.

 

I didn’t use a socket. Just soldered wire directly to each LED wire leads.
The parts shown in the photo is the only parts list I used, minus solder and electrical tape.

 

U have pics of blue LED's after install?

 

I’ll take another pic this evening

 

FYI- I'm not sure about the quality of their bulbs. But if there's some obscure gauge cluster bulb or a bulb you can't find anywhere else, they probably have it.

 

I've always loved those trail wheels.

 

I have my stock premium wheels for sale.....IN CA though

 

My UPS guy hates me.

RCI full armor package, Blistein 6112 pre assembled from Wheelers off road, Smittybilt X20 winch. Wait till next week when my sliders and winch mount come in from Greenland OffRoad. He is going to get a hernia.

 

Forget about your UPS guy...I hate you. (JK) wish I was getting more fun stuff for my truck!!

Waiting patiently for pics of it all installed on your ride!!!

 

Here’s a pic you requested.

 

I have been a very good boy this year and Santa sent my Xmas presents early. Lift and KO2s going on tomorrow. Skids on Friday or if I don’t eat to much and can get the family to help on turkey day. Hopefully winch install and sliders next weekend. I’ll send pics.

 

Me too. Those are the nicest looking Toyota brand wheels ever made! The only thing I don't like about them is you can never find them used. Prob cuz they are so badass

 

Gobi??

 

Very nice

 

I hope it's your Gobi order! What an ordeal, jeez.

 

thanks! i like that its a bit more aggressive looking. the trail wheels are pretty sweet. if i ever swap out, i will make sure to offer them for sale here first!

 

Before leveling with Blistein 6112 set at 2nd circlip 1.4” KDSS. Stock back end.

After install along with KO2s 265/70/17

Went from 19.75” center hub to bottom of fender to 21 1/8” so Blisteins estimate of 1.4” is pretty darn close.
Took a lunch break and now going to tackle first oil change, replace plastic filter housing with aluminum, install fumoto valve, and install full set of RCI aluminum skids.

 

Dontou have a Link for aluminum filter housing?

 

I like that a lot. Much better than the all black. Was it an easy install?

 

I NEED THIS ON MY 4RUNNER. THANKS

 

Logo goes on wet and the 4Runner dry

Very easy just take your time
