    First time doing plastidip. Or, I suppose, technically the second because I did it yesterday but rookie on the peeling corners so I removed it and started again today. Still not entirely pleased but it’ll do for now. Emblems already had the blackout package, chrome bars got the cheap eBay covers, but wanted to plastidip the middle bar of the grill. Not wanting to do the typical Pro grill, and not entirely certain I want to spend on vinyl.

    Shortbed problems... made a run across state to pick up my bumper and swing out from Victory for my 4Runner. Hopefully installing next weekend.

    I ordered a set and installed them today. I like the in-channel design, however, I do not like the way the bottom of the front edge sits on the molding of the front window. Time will tell.

    I love the look and the capabilities in the snow of the stock Terra Grapplers, but I put so many highway miles on the 4Runner that the road noise was killing me. Installed some Fuel wheels and more of a 3-season tire to quiet things down. Worked like a charm. 265/70 on a 17x9 wheel. The extra width really fills out the fender flares nicely. I bought the Autel TS508.. figured I'd have to program the new TPMS sensors but I clicked on "Change Wheel Set" on the little dash menu and after some driving the TPMS linked up. Been a few days now... no problems. Hopefully no trip to the dealer needed.

    Installed a C4 lo-pro bumper with a Warn 10s and the Genesis Offroad dual battery kit with Odyssey batteries. I also installed the Dometic DC kit in the back for the fridge.IMG_3563.jpg

    Bought these vinyl decals awhile back ago and finally put them on. Tomorrow I'm going to black out the front/front bumper. I figured it would give it little bit of a different look.....20210227_180513.jpg

    Looks good, almost like your 4R has been assimilated by the Borg!
    :thumbsup:

    One suggestion: the one positive battery terminal is very close to the fender wall (chassis). You should rig up a plastic insulating cap for it.

    Looking for some guidance. I noticed the front springs on my 2021 (non kdss) have different color markings. For example, one spring has a white paint mark with another red/orange color and the other front spring has a white paint mark with another greenish color. Does this mean they are different spring rates? If so, why? Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

    Drivers spring is 9 wrap passenger is 8 wrap. This is done to try and compensate for everything heavy on the drivers side of the truck. Gas tank, battery, steering column, driver, etc. it sorta worked but every 4Runner still sits lower in the drivers side than on the passenger side.
