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

if feeling dirty over straight billet is wrong, i dont wanna be right

 

Went to visit our daughter this past weekend and she had to go into work. Rather than go through the PITA of switching the car seats around, we took her Subaru and let her drive the 4Runner.

I'm surprised I got it back to be perfectly honest. She's a bit jelly.

 

I don't know, I'm definitely very partial to my wife's 24 Outback, that's a solid ride for sure.

 

I drove '21 through '23 Outbacks for a while. I'll admit to really liking them. I'd love for the 4Runner seat to have the adjustable thigh support that the Outback seat has.

Honestly, if I hadn't been able to get my 4Runner when I did, I would probably have ended up in an Outback turbo.

 

Same here, probably. My daughter's Subie is fun to drive, but oooh, those CVT transmissions scare me.

 

Gave the SR5P a good wash after yesterday's mud-rain came down!

 

The Apex tie rods look beefy. Mine just arrived the other day.
I'll be installing those and the c4 high clearance fender liners soon.

 

14 year-old commuter that spent much of its life in salty Quebec lol, the whole frame is rusty, but no holes. Don't be deceived by the front skid, which came from a 2023 Limited off FB Marketplace.

 

Sliders came in!

 

Well then it's held up quite well considering!

 

Hey!! Elka + Dobs Billet too here!! Love your setup. Going to find those tie rods you have. Lovely work!

 

Primer and two coats done. Installing tomorrow.

 

You bought them untreated? I'm Not a Certified Welder , but those welds FROM the Pictures are Not impressive. AGAIN just my observations from pics

 

Easier to touch up paint than powder coat. I alway paint all my bumpers and sliders with zero issues.

Also, I work in aerospace with some baller welders and these welds are on point.

 

The welds look better than the shitty Toyota welds on the frame...

 

You’re not wrong haha
