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

Looks great. Link to purchase?

 

I agree.
I had a friend’s 2016 Jeep Rubicon 4 door JK for a month between selling my 2001 4Runner and getting my 2018 Pro.
After one month I couldn’t stand that Jeep. No cargo space, poor ride quality, no rear leg room, sat upright in the driver’s seat like a bad dining chair.

 

New 17" Fuel whells for the wifes Runner.

 

Looks good what did you add to the Fox suspension to lift higher? Stock size tire?

 

Windshield too, yes. It is barely tinted at all. The ceramic film, even though it isn't dark, still cuts heat and UV pretty effectively.

It's not at all like looking at a limo with Guido and his buddies with windows you can't see in. I don't see cops ever even noticing a difference.

 

Yes the seating position was just awkward. As well was getting in and out. And every damn jeep waving to me, and here in PA there's a ton of jeeps on the road

 

They come in different colors but I picked flat black. What is nice is the trim tape on the back was all one piece and not a bunch of small cut pieces .
Actually kind of pricey for a thin plastic cover but I like it.

 

Did you gloat because you were right and he was wrong? I bet you did. You seem like a gloater. I sure as hell would've!

 

It's sad I feel ACCOMPLISHED by these 2 things:

1) Got the dreaded TPS sensors replaced and light finally off my dash. Bought some sensors off FB market that were OEM. Guy bought them for his Tacoma, but weren't right ones. Paid $140 for 5 new still in box sensors. Quite the steal!

2) Got my sunroof reprogrammed. Mine is aftermarket from previous owner. A quick search on YT found that if you hold the vent button for 3-5 seconds, you'll hear a CLICK sound. After, that it's closed and opened all the way. It started acting funny other day by not opening all way and then not at all. For now, it opens up all way.

 

I have the same issue you have (had). My TPMS doesn't work. It hasn't since the day I bought it. Long story short: I bought the truck, then took it DIRECTLY to Discount Tire for new tires. They broke two of the TPMS sensors. They replaced them, reprogrammed them, but I couldn't get them to register tire pressure. After a few months of back and forth, I gave up. Discount Tire hooked up a machine to disable the alerts I would get in the head unit or on the dash.

I've often wondered if I bought a set of 4 OEM's would it work the way it should? I don't want to waste the money on something that 'may' work.

 

Installed Jesse's Camping Mod kit. Definitely one of the more time consuming DIYs..at least for me but well worth it.

 

Parked the 4Runner at the Overland Expo today and escaped without spending any money!

 

You went to the Overland Expo and DID NOT spend any money? At all?

I knew you weren't really one of us!

 

. I had to exit quickly.

 

Comparing the simplicity…locks, window, hatch
To its usefulness

Total game changer

 

Love this! Do you have a link for it?

 

Hello and Welcome! What are you referring to? Rausch Creek? https://www.rc4x4.org/

 

Got a lovely dent in my 8 week old baby repaired.

 

Thanks for the link to Raush Creek. Just googled it. Were 222 miles away from that. Also was looking at your front bumper/guard. Where did you get it?

 

@BettyWhite Unfortunately it's a company that did great fabrication but did not manage the business very well, never really recovered from the shut down and supply chain BS. Then they screwed over quite a few people as they shut their doors, basically over night. There are similar designs out there.

 

What did that cost you? I have a dent just like that, but lower on the passenger side door. It's a very small dent/crease that has been bugging the hell out of me for months.

 

Let us know what you think about it

 

Nice repair job. I see you have door edge guards to prevent you from doing that to another vehicle, but someone else didn't return the favor.

 

$150

 

Just got done changing the oil, filter and greasing the driveshafts!

 

My 2020 SR5P rolled over 50k miles on the way home from a family trip to Sam's Club

Time to do the transfer case and differential fluid change.

 

Nice! Are those covers or new seats? Where did you get them?

 

Just snagged a deal with my coupon from 4Runner Lifestyle! Did a quick makeover: black to RED and ditched that blingy chrome ring. Who knew a little color change could bring so much joy? Feeling like I should start a new trend: 'Ringing in the Red!' ❤️ #4RunnerLifestyle #ModLife"

 

Ordered redline fluids for TC and diff fluid swap. 20% at Oreilly helped save some $, too.

 

Maybe a tiiiiiny bit. It wouldn't be the most horrible thing in the world for a dude to admit he may be wrong, even if he doesn't think so. Same for women. Everyone would be a lot easier to tolerate if we occasionally took a bit of personal responsibility for ourselves and said "Oops. I fucked up." If I hadn't gone out to AutoZone and spent that $15 dollars and trusted myself to handle the situation, I would have had to give an otherwise avoidable ass-chewing to my other half for not taking my word on this over having read something in passing on this forum and not acted upon it.
