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

yes they provide the 4 O rings i used them to make sure its tight you can turn them to get them in there pretty tight good luck these lights are pretty bright may add.

 

I got an email from Alpharex saying that the Luxx Alpha Black was out of stock after I placed my order. I called and spoke with Alondra (great customer service) and decided to just swap them for the Luxx Black as they were in stock. I was hoping to have them and install this weekend, oh well.

Currently waiting for the LASfit reverse lights to arrive. I'm contemplating ordering their turn signal bulbs as well.

 

I didn't have to trim mine when I did the OME lift and 285s its all in the alignment when installed. but when I changed out my factory wheels to the TRD pro wheels I did start to rub only in reverse because of the off set of the wheels. I trimmed my bumper and can't tell its done and no more rubbing

 

Not sure mine rubbed at reverse on steering full locked on one tire on a rock or a bump because I have 884 springs. I guess they are 2.5 inch lift not 3in lift. Since I don't have any additional weight in front a heavy spring is not adviceable.

 

Nothing wild but threw this on my wife's car. I didn't like the plate just rattling on the rear lift gate. Got a 2nd one for my car but might just put it on her front plate instead. Sorry for the picture size, I realize nobody needs to see something this benign from 30 feet away.

 

I got a set of those and will from now on get them for every vehicle I own!

 

I use 3M automotive double side tape on the plate. Not even a single movement. NO rattles.

 

As soon as I find a shop that will do it, this will be my next mod!

 

A Woody 4runner...
Fugly!!

 

Yeah, pretty horrible, ain't it? Notice the State on the license plate. That explains a lot lol!

 

Next mod after the woody mod

 

I hope it was a vinyl company doing an event or something. The A pillar is done but the rear looks like butt (lol). Well it is all bad, however their lines make it hideous. Wrap the fenders in the lighter brown...
There is still no way it can look good. Besides unwrapping!

 

That should be in the "cheap mod" thread! LMAO

 

No offroading, but took the family on a quick weekender up to the CA central coast to watch the Sentinel 6 satellite launch from Vandenberg. West coast launches have been scarce lately, so I'm glad we caught this one! Also had fun visiting Solvang and Santa Ines mission.

Thanks for sharing; I like that it’s available in some basic colors as well as being all silicone.

Sorry I didn't link Amazon, all. Wasn't sure if the rules prohibited external linking or the like.

Oh man, I’d be bumpin some cowboy rap as I cruise down to honky town... oh wait, is honky too racist?

Side note.
Back in the late 70’s, I worked at a body shop and when we fixed and reapplied the wood grain stickers, we always referred to them as putting it back in the box.

 

I was wondering the same thing. I think the guy doing it either quit or poked his eyes out.

 

Curious if you have KDSS or not?

 

Got the front runner dressed length full rack put on then used it to bring home the tree. Still have a box of accessories that need to be mounted to it like the ace mount, shovel, and hi lift but it’s doing it job now.

 

Not sure how I’m feeling the Plano box from the Tacoma on the 4Runner

also realized I need to get the kid across the street to come rake and I need to stain the front deck

 

No. Went back and forth but ultimately decided against it.

 

That road must be hell in the winter with ice/snow conditions..... I like the rack, but the box looks small for the real estate on top. could be the angle to that makes it look this way

 

Picked up the tree!

 

I think there is a Pelican 33/3400 series case that fits perfect on these racks and I think someone here has it on that very same rack....

 

That hill is horrible in the ice. Snow isn’t bad but the whole subdivision is a hill. From the entrance is up to the back where I live it’s down.

 

We are moving to the Franklin/Nolensville area mid 21 and everywhere we look the houses have a damn downhill driveway or road...
