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

Yes that’s my wife’s.

 

I bought a 1st gen and took it offroading with my 5th gen today!

 

Just more proof that the 4Runner is a chicks vehicle

 

Excellent!
My wife drives ours.

 

What size/brand lift do you have??

 

Awesome! I went and got the same set up. I have the wider bar in the front with the faring on that. And two normal width ones. Today was the first day I hopped on the highway and couldn’t hear any noticeable wind noise. Then again never have them up there without the wind faring. You thinking of getting the whole rack ever? I may spring for the 3/4 at some point. What kind of recovery boards do you have. They mounted up there without a bracket? Thanks

 

If I ever get a rooftop tent, I could see converting these crossbars into a full LFD roof rack.

Traction boards are cheap Chinese ones I bought off ebay for about $50.
Similar to these:

A set of Maxtrax go $300, I figure I can break a bunch of the cheap ones for that price.


The bolt is 9/16 x 4.25"-ish long with washer, nut, and matching wing nut which I picked up at my local small family owned hardware store.

Cheaper than buying those Maxtrax mounts.





Since I'm a little paranoid, I also zip tied the traction boards to the rear cross bar.
Would hate for them to fly off as I'm cruising down the highway.

By the way I had to dremmel out the holes on the traction boards to fit them to the cross bars. Front cross bar is all the way forward and the rear one is all the way back. Took a couple seconds to oblong the holes in the traction board.

The middle cross bar could've been left out for best fit - but I left it in there.

Stressed myself out and was amazed by what I got through without dying (lol) or even taking any damage. Here is a preview - pics and video coming

 

Any change make a short video? I was planning to get one for DRL but I dont know which to get.

 

Drove alll the way to New Jersey for a Gobi Stealth + ladder because I didnt want to wait 6 months.

 

Go big or go home. We just did an 84” and holy hell. It actually hurts my eyes at night so we are re arranging the living room

 

Few shots

 

Few more

 

A couple more

 

And last batch for now .

 

No mod, but met two other members for coffee this morning. 2021 TRD PRO and 2021 TRD Off-Road.

 

Looks great! Is that an SSO bumper? And does it interfere with the TSS?

 

I was wondering same thing. Looks like Southern Style. love to find out whose bumper and which winch

 

I haven't seen a Lunar Rock 4Runner out in the wild yet, but it looks good in the pics.

 

TRD PRO is Lunar Rock. It looks pretty cool..

 

I like those better than the plastic overlays that myself and everyone else has

 

Thank you easy and cheap fix!

 

What lift are you running?

 

How'd your T4R do? I haven't taken mine to URE yet, but wheeled my Grand Cherokee out there without much issue.

 

I can certainly do that. Last night I also did the side marker lights (ya gotta be a contortionist), rear turn signals, as well as license plate light, map light and door lights. I will take a video in the next day or two - weather depending.

 

Took the Bike for a spin....to the Shop...

 

Hi! I'm new here! Heres a photo of my 2020 SR5 i purchased about a month ago.
Just debadged, tinted the front windows, added a 2.5" Bilstein lift, 17' Fuel Shoks with 285/70/17 nitto ridge grapplers.

 

All is well until I got to descend Dickey Bell. It was really rutted out

 

So, I found out this morning that I got a puncture. Tire is getting repaired now - in the mean time I am rocking the full size spare. I must say - the look is really growing on me. Most cars on a spare tire look sad. But, this 4Runner looks even tougher
