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

Ironman foam cell stage 2, 3” lift. I have not reviewed. I have KDSS and I was hoping for more lift in the front but overall I’m happy.

 

Seriously, who can even afford a used toyota nowadays

 

I keep going back to their website and find I get angry when the price is so reasonable and then you add 30% for powder coating and shipping...

Anyway, did you get yours powder coated and, if so, how has it held up?

Im starting to wonder how hard it might be to rhino coat/line-x it myself....

 

Yes, I got mine powder coated, holding up fine so far. I ordered my roof rack with scene lights from them at the same time and was under a 15% off promo for my order.

 

Does anyone know off the top of their head if a set of front extended brake lines for long travel will work on the rear as a bandaid until my actual rear long travel brake lines arrive? They appear to have the same attachment points. Basically the situation is I am installing dobinsons 701’s and I completely goofed and didn’t order my brake lines. A buddy has a set that he bought as backups for his long travel build and said I could use them but I wanted to see if anyone knew they could work until my metal tech ones comes in.

I know I could run the 701’s until the others show up with stock lines but we have a couple trails we were going to hit and camp this weekend and I’d rather play it safe vs tearing a brake line

 

With a standard tap the cover would not close and did not want to melt the cover to fit. Ordered a correctly sized mini tap for the ing slot and it worked fine. Just used an inline fuse. I removed the mini tap and it pulled the fuse box female portion right out of the fuse block. Taps come with a wire soldered inside and wire sticks out the top
Works great if you don’t remove them.
Pics are the tap and replacement part

 

Thanks...how well do these also work as steps?

 

Got the shipping notice for my Uptop Overland Bravo, excited and relieved it will arrive in time to install before our trip. Also sounds like the new wheels will be shipping on time

 

There is enough space to use as a “step” if needed.

 

Did you...? On your 4r?...

 

I scored a LFD 3/4 roof rack from CL for $250.
I will need to take it back off and touch up the paint at some point,but now I have a rack!

 

i started cleaning off the engine after going off roading...i did not have enough time to really get in there, but man is that gonna be a long day haha. i got a decent portion cleaned up though.

 

Oof ome 898 vs dobinsons 749

 

One of many lol.

 

That's quite a difference.

Don't both of those advertise 3" of lift......and they're both heavy duty coils right?

Are the Dobs a lower spring rate?

 

I pretty sure the dobs are higher spring rate than the ome the ones advertise 2.5-3.5 inch of lift but the second you add actual weight forget it.

 

I added the door striker covers and the door hinge bolt covers. They serve absolutely no real functional purpose but I thought it added a little something. Besides, they were only $15.00 from Cartrimhome with free shipping.

I remember when I was a service manager in a Toyota dealership, we would always have Lexus customers come in and these are standard on a Lexus. A small detail but I thought they were a nice addition.

 

How are the attached?

 

They just clip on. No tools required. Since the parts they cover are not moving parts, they should stay in place.

 

Replaced the Dueler H/T tires (bought new truck three days ago) with KO2s.

Anyone want to buy a set of Duelers with 60 miles on them? (j/k - listed locally).

Jason

 

Recently passed 5,000 miles. So, we're heading to the dealership for my first free scheduled maintenance. Figure I'll use up my free ones before starting in on doing it myself.

I'm also going to see about ordering a set of crossbars and some touch up paint while I'm there.

 

Today’s project is painting the Cailraised Rock Sliders that were delivered last week. I got the 0 degree with steps to help my wife getting in and out of my 2021 OR.

I primed them yesterday and am painting them with Raptor Liner. I’ve used Raptor Liner on a couple of projects (bed cap for my truck) and the results have been good.

I’m looking forward to installing them after they cure for a few days...

 

Molle panels + 2 shelves. More info on my build page

Try bam auto wholesale or certain Toyota dealers discount the crossbars.
Shop around, most dealers sell at retail

 

Thanks for the info! I've been looking around a bit, but, haven't checked bam yet.

 

Good score

 

Woah

 

Looking good
