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

Lazy Sunday, yesterday relocated the rear differential breather to the jack compartment.

 

Nice - will have to look into that.

 

Nice! Subd for installed pics!

 

Wouldn’t that smell up the interior of your car?

 

They work for me...I've been considering new wheels for a couple of years now but yall know how it is...I'd rather spend my green backs on other goodies
They been on there's for a few months now no issues
I have to switch one out tho (got snagged on a branch)

 

I don't think so. I've not noticed any smell. I will keep an eye/nose on it

 

Lmao right. It wasn’t too terrible. 150.00 for two sheets of 3/4 birch and then we went back last night and got a third piece of 1/4” for 40.00. I spent more on the wood than I did the the 250# locking slides

 

how’s it sound?

 

What’s the bumper bar? Looks nice and flush

 

With front door, tweeter changed to ALPINE speakers, and added this amplifier and subwoofer, sounds deeper also crisp...much much better

 

Cut some plastic from the mudflaps so I could reinstall them. It's the only thing I've cut so far since I've had the 295s.



I rub the front bumper in reverse. I must have rubbed enough off that I don't rub going forward anymore. I rub less on the other side.

 

Crutchfield provided free harness with purchase of speaker.

 

My RCI skid plates finally showed up!

 

More progress with the drawer system. Will add the divider for the two drawers tomorrow then paint the inside of the main compartments and the exterior of the drawers Wednesday but may get the paint on tomorrow. Then will add the carpet to the outside and top sections once that’s done install the slides and bolt them to the base plate and together. Only thing I’m waiting on are the Chicago nuts to get here for the drawer slides. Ohhh and we have to go to the this place that sells exotic wood for the drawer faces.



also thinking of adding two pieces of L track to the tops to be able to hold down misc items.

 

looking great. Wish I was half as crafty with building shit

 

I did mine like this about 3-4 years ago and was concerned it may smell. Even on hot days, long road trips, I've never had an issue.

 

Finished up connecting the dual battery setup. Added a C4 tray with Odyssey group 34 battery. The Blue Sea fuses and ARC are mounted on pieces of the repurposed front bumper over the batteries. I did not want to mount stuff atop the relay/fuse box.


A cut down GM fuse diode in the alternator S fuse slot bumped the charging voltage right up to 14v for the AGM.

What brand are these? Looks good.

 

Did Alpine just include that bracket to mount it under/between the seat mounts or did you find that elsewhere/fab it yourself? Really look into the same but so far hadn't seen that kind of under seat bracket.

 

CarTrimHome

 

C4 lopro bumper.

 

This system is with bracket. You need to remove passenger seat. Bracket goes between floor and seat

 

Installed a pistol case under the passenger seat. Also Lamin-X fog light lenses and carbon fiber black overlays on headlights, taillights and steering wheel emblem overlay.

 

Precut? Any pics of them on the headlights?

 

Probably a stupid question but does this integrate into the factory head unit?

 

Rigid armor tire carrier. Maybe one day ill find a spare scs wheel lol

 

The weather just isn’t cooperating with finishing this build out. I love my boys but giving up my garage to build them bigger bedrooms is proving to have its downsides. Got the fridge cabinet painted and one of the drawers painted. And the carpet put in the bottom. Then I need to route out the sides for the fridge to get air. The sex bolts will be here Thursday and the slides will go in that side also my high power pc fans will also be here tomorrow to help keep air moving around the fridge. Tomorrow I’m going to try and get the other cabinet painted in and the other drawer so I can get the slides in it. And the drawers mounted. Then get the backing on both cabinets

 

Go on....

 

That was my exact expression when I first heard of them. They are male and female threaded bolts that join together for hd drawer slides. I originally ordered 1/2” ones and they were long enough (that’s what she said) for 3/4” ply

 

I need some sex bolts. https://apexfasteners.com/fasteners/sex-bolt
