    Yes. You can also just buy Sherp's feet which I may do as I would really love to support Westcott given they are local. I don't think any of this is necessary, just my preference. As I said I don't think anyone has actually complained about leaking to my knowledge.

    What did I do for my 4Runner today? Something that took about 5 minutes to install -- new red MESO push start button and MESO white trim ring. The site says trim ring is for Tacomas, but I took a $10 risk, and it fit perfectly. MESO website says the push buttons are out of stock. I got mine from Runnin4Tacos.com.

    Oh man I have been thinking on getting one of those But would want Black trim ring.. Any idea where to get the black ring? How much of dash did you have to take apart?

    Super easy. I did this when I had a Taco. No taking the dash apart.

    But here's a quick vid of it being done on a Taco:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVuuzacR00I

    And if you just want a trim ring for push start:

    https://mesocustoms.com/products/interior-chrome-delete-kit?variant=31246299463793

    NOTE: It says black is out of stock for just the trim ring, but there are a few other color choices.

    Westcott Sliders. Gobi no rise
    Their rock sliders and weld quality are amazing as well.

    I'm local so when I picked them up I took the opportunity to talk a bit with the staff over there. Very nice guys

    Agreed….welds are legit…..not that looks of the welds are important as to the actual function of a slider but they do give you confidence they are made right.

    So ... I just got back from Westcott. Amazing people. I was shown the whole company ... where they sell, install (both areas), where they pack and ship, where the machines do shit, where they powder coat ... Amazing experience and great customer service. I also did not leave empty handed ...

    OEM "rock rails" as Toyota likes to call them off! Ready for the Shrockworks sliders (hopefully tomorrow)!

    Of course I had "help".

    I know, I just can't find them used and new they are more than the PRO wheels. Difficult to justify it. I'll find a set one day haha

    Yeah my ORP came with Pro rims and chrome lugs. Buying 4 sets of 6 is about $65 but I didn't know if there was a cheaper route. The chrome lugs make me cringe everytime I walk outside to the 4R.

    Being a maintenance addict, especially regarding rust, i had a very minor debut in my rear left in the bottom , i sandblasted the corner, etch primer etc, disassembled the door to inspect inside , everything was fine and woolwaxed it

    Just the after result , but remember to check yours

    I think my BMC'd body mounts are still experiencing rubbing on the inner most side during hard turn w/ decent flex. So I masked them off in hopes of showing rub evidence, and now I'm rippin round testing flex on shit

    2023 Lunar Rock TRD Off Road Premium
    I originally wanted them on my Tacoma. My wife picked up an TRDOR premium and it has them on it. Actually just picked up an extra set from a guy locally $250. Just keep looking and you’ll find someone getting rid of theirs. Going to powder coat them black and slap them on her Lunar Rock Runner just like that one.
