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

Fitted some lights

Tomorrow i quit Quebec for Moab

 

Hey buddy, keep it clean. This isn't that kinda website!

 

Mine looked just like that, but had an ARE camper. Same color as yours. Love that truck, @glwood54.

 

On a nice Saturday...Why settle for boring fog lights when you can add some fun with these yellow Lamin-X Fog Light Covers? They're cheap, quick, and guaranteed to bring a smile to your face!

 

Fogs are nice, but what headlights are you running? Show more pics

 

Headlights are Morimoto. The skies just opened up. I will get some pics asap.

 

I like it! Looked on Rhino Rack's site but didn't see it. More info when you can. Thanks

 

Just went to their site 4th July sale %15 off. Still loading my vehicle to view them. $1,126.25. Yeah I'm gonna pass on them. They look nice & I'm not cheap but maybe if they were 1/2 that.

 

That's exactly why I'm not posting the pics after that cap got removed.

 

2003 Shingle Cab 2WD Prerunner w/4 banger set up for camping at Shelter Valley, Ca. I always get into camp early to grab this spot. I slept in the back of this truck and my 06 Tacoma quad cab for 17 years before I splurged on an RV. It's really nice to have a place to pee in the middle of the night.
Now I park my RV at the opening of the storage shed.

 

It's the Rhino 1300. It clears the wing on the rear hatch which ruled out a few others I had looked at. It can also be side mounted. There's a few sites with a bit cheaper prices.

This is exactly why this forum is so great!!! Just sharing info!

 

Did my first oil change on the 4runner (dealer did first 2). Put in the AFE dry proS air filter too. I was surprised to see no carbon filter in there

 

Installed JBA UCA’s.

 

Put a bunch of foil down on this one spot right here. Normally I'd be drinking scotch right now getting ready for what comes next but I'm all out.

 

Went from 255/75 to 275/70 General Grabber ATX

 

Nice! great choice

 

General Grabbers yaaaa
I almost bought these, very nice

 

It was on sale paid $1061 mounted and balance. Just couldn't passed up the deal.

 

Installed Greenlane sliders I got from a member here. Also did the DRL 12v conversion with amber/yellow 9005 bulbs.




9005 amber DRL bulbs, 574 lumen


Grounded in the front instead

 

Got my Kenwood CMOS-740HD rear camera working. JB welded it to the stock mount. There's not enough room in there to make to work with the camera's mount or mounting holes.

Ground off the mounting plates for the stock inverter to fit a 500 watt Victron. Not sure how that's going to fit just yet but I'm working on it.

Replaced the rear cigarette light socket with USB

Replacing the rear AC socket internals with much beefier stuff just in case stock couldn't handle it

Last pic is the AC socket being held right while plastic JB weld dries

 

this is about my ability level...
was thinking of replacing the rear cigarette lighter with the toyota dual USB adapter they sell for the front facia...
do you think that would work?

Also, now that you have practiced on yours, would you willing to do all that to my truck for $200?

 

It's really easy. I'm in the bay area. If you are too I'll help you. I'm guessing you're in Texas. But all you gotta do is...hardest thing is probably removing the rear plastics as you might not be able to get to the wires in there otherwise.

The cigarette lighter did take a sec to figure out how to remove

Dremel the hole slightly bigger hole, USB thing off Amazon goes right in

Cut the plug off that went to the cigarette lighter socket, then crimp on plug like this. These DT style are frickin amazing

I guess you also need to crimp on connectors to connect to the USB outlet

I'm going to DM you

 

Yes it is

 

How’s the difference in noise with the sound deadening? Worth it?

 

Where did you get the lights??
