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

Eh, I welded up these little holes in my bumper that were meant for bolts that hold on these cheese looking surround pieces.

 

I finished up the lightbar, roof rack and new to me, OEM headlights with Morimoto stroke LED lowbeams...I'm hoping this version 4 of the LEDs do not cause dash lights...so far, all is well!

 

I was bored and messed with my pre-filter haha.

 

Brought home a 9-foot addition to our landscaping with this girl riding shotgun.

 

Should last another 100k miles, now!! Nice work!

 

Installed full RCI skids and sliders. Also replaced factory alternator with Mechman 240 amp alternator.

 

Installed an AFE CAI that I got for $160 off the marketplace. Sounds awesome and the throttle response is much better. Probably will change out the filter when payday hits

 

I swapped my winter tires and wheels on and removed the rear Spidertrax 1.25 wheel spacers on the rear...the tires all appear more aligned in looks now...

 

its that time of year again

 

installed startx remote start. Took me 10 minutes to get this all done... what a pleasant and problem-free mod!

 

@Irving Zisman Been looking at this myself! Did you replace the accessory belt with a recommended slightly shorter one and if so what length?

 

Indeed, I did use a shorter belt. Mechman says to use a belt that is half an inch shorter than OEM. If you have the V8, I can save you the time and provide the Dayco part number 5060875. It is roughly half an inch shorter that OEM.
If you dont have the V8, Mechman has a belt finder tool on their website: https://www.mechman.com/quick-belt-finder/

Hope this helps.

Just saw you have the 2005 V8. I guess the link will help those with the V6 lol.

 

Put my winter tires on and cleaned my Throttle body. Was pretty grimey. After relearning the idle, the truck starts and idles lower than it previously did. So was happy to see that, as cold idle seemed high to me at 1500rpm.

 

Upgraded my already outstanding Pioneer AVH-2550NEX from wired to wireless Carplay with

$60 Wireless CarPlay Adapter for iPhone, Converts Wired to Apple Carplay Wireless Adapter, Compatible with iOS 10+ and Cars from 2016, Mini Size, Plug and Play, Stable Control

this adapter from Amazon. Plug & play using the USB connection. Works perfectly.

The big thing it’s plugged into is a USB cable intended to mount up to a surface. Already had that and will probably replace it with something more streamlined next time I have the dash opened up.
