    Wrangler Duratracs, center console organizer & trav all 1576 dog divider for the rear. Xpel wrap with ceramic coating. 20% tint on front windows. TRD intake. TRD oil cap Plus parts on shelf & a wish list.
    We average 8k miles a year in all 3 of our vehicles.
    I change the oil once a year (unless heavily used). Diesel fuel filters may vary.
    I own a lawn & landscaping business.
    Small equipment gets oil change every 50 hrs & filters every 100 hrs. They are severe duty items!
    I believed in 5k oil changes on the T4R until I was proven it isn't necessary. If it makes you happy & content. By all means continue.
    The owners manual says 10k miles for oil.
    :cheers:

    Do either of you have a parts list for this? I am curious what regulation you used etc. I have just started looking at this option and I leave on Thursday for a trip that I wouldn't mind having a Poor-tank as well! haha!
    Thanks!

    No parts list, just did a search on google and found a number of different builds/websites.
    It's pretty simple though - Tank, regulator (I found one on Amazon, 150PSI), hose and whatever connector types you want plus the infiltrator/chuck.
    So yeah, I guess that's your quick and dirty parts list.
    You may find parts cheaper than online at a local welding store, personally I'm lazy/don't feel like hunting around town.
    Best of luck and have fun on the trip!

    I talked to my wife today and apparently she already ordered an ARB compressor for this weekend and didn't tell me! haha. I guess I could have worse problems!

    We had a pair of amp research power boards added to my wife’s 4runner. I forgot to take a photo of the 4Runner without them. They go down and back up when any door is open or closed. They also have LED lights mounted with them. I snapped the photo really quickly after I shut the door.

    We like them a lot. She couldn’t figure out what she wanted for the longest. I like them due to them not taking up much ground clearance.

    agreed, I like that when stowed they are up and out of the way and actually come down pretty far when they deploy out, but yours are lighted and I don't think his have any lighting on them, I could be wrong though.

    I honestly don’t know if that was a added feature by the guy who put them in or if it comes with the newer model.

    Thanks, I'm looking for something I can't find. My switch needs one output with two inputs and a off position. One side will send 12vts to the aux reverse lights, a position for off, and another signal from reverse gear to activate lights.a rocker switch. I've seen plenty just not sure if they are direct fit. No biggie all my other trucks I just cut a hole in the dash.

    Nice, my gf is wanting me to get these, just pretty pricey! Did you find a deal on them anywhere? How was the installation? Thanks

    I looked for the same concept for a different usage. If you can’t find it herehttps://www.ch4x4.com/ I would say you would have to non-OEM style.

    I ended up paying full price for them. I don’t like installing anything that involves wiring myself. I think I paid about 100 extra to have them installed. I believe it took the place I purchased them from about 2.5 hours to install them. I’m not sure if they spent that entire time working on it or not. Of course they install them all the time too. They are definitely pricey, but worth it IMO.

    I got a coupon from Agent_Outside from this site.
    I will. I was still thinking about wrapping the top but probably won’t. So the rack may go on this weekend.

    This is how I’ve wired my last few vehicles (didn’t use diode) and you only need a simple on/off switch. Lights turn on automatically when shifted to reverse but you can also turn them on anytime even while driving or the vehicle is off.

    I’ve plugged many a tire without any long term issues. One tire made it 50k and the tread gave way before the plug.

    This

    Are you looking for a momentary on switch (means only on when pressed and held) or a fixed single pole double throw switch? Could route the inputs to the two terminals and the output being the “input”. Judging by what you’re wanting to do, it might take more than one switch.

    SPDT (single pole, double throw): An SPDT switch routes
    one input circuit to one of two output circuits. This type of
    switch is sometimes called an A/B switch because it lets you choose
    between two circuits, called A and B. An SPDT switch has three
    terminals: one for the input and two for the A and B outputs.
