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

I let it get some fresh mountain air.

 

Added a Rok-Form Magnetic Phone Mount.
Phone in the picture is just for an example.
My everyday phone has a Rok-Form Case.





Also accessorized the Door handles, push start ring and steering wheel badge with MESO Blackout Accessories I had in stock.

 

Does that have parking protection mode (when vehicle is off)?

Also how difficult was it pulling off the trim pieces? Is it easy to damage anything while doing this?

Install looks great so I'm going to copy you

 

Forgot this part, but when you lift the rear, you should chock the front wheels and have it in 4wd.

 

Busy week, swapped in a trd pro exhaust this past Sunday. Then today after work I pulled off my rear eibach pro truck shocks for some fox trd pro shocks and installed Bosch rear brake pads. Lovin it.

 

Got a few more things done to the new ride, 5% Window Tint, 2 inch Rough Country Spacer and installed a bulletpoint mounting system

 

Really like the wheels!

 

Appreciate it, they’re actually off my previous Tacoma

 

Thanks. Yes, it has parking mode- if you buy this camera, you'll also need to buy the hardware kit for parking mode. This allows you to run a constant power to the camera to allow parking mode to operate with the vehicle off. Lots of extra wire I bunched up behind the driver's kick panel. I'll eventually trim back the excess but wanted to try out the camera for a while.

Only trim piece I took off was the driver's side A-Pillar. Very easy. One 10mm bolt and then pull gently and it will pop off. A little bit of work to get the bottom edge out and back in correctly, but just go slow.
Best to remove it so you can run and secure wires away from the air bag. You don't want them crossing over it.

Surprisingly, I didn't have to remove any trim other than that, even with running the wire to the rear camera. I just ran it along the top edge of the trim, tucking it in with a trim tool.

 

My next mod just arrived (Thank you UPS man!):

I'm going to have them installed this Saturday.

 

I like those rims. Looks like a b!tch to clean?

 

POR15
..okay I'm going to frickin bed now

 

It will peel off if coated over rust. POR-15 claims as rust converting paint are not supported by their instructions of use. Says to clean the rust up to bare metal, in which case any paint will do. Ive done it before and it doesn't hold up. I use phosphorous oxide converter and off the shelf chassis paint with a hell a lot better results. With that said, nice work, Djwantke.

 

I still believe in Rustoleum. It's the fish oil!

 

EMU BP51 and 33.8 inch KO2s. Bumper and winch next month.

 

Why I love TRD ORP wheels over TRD Pro wheels. Perfect for bigger tires. Meet width specs and minimize rubbing issues.

Looks awesome Yotaholic..!! I bet you will love BP-51s comfort, maybe you will play with the compression and rebound to your taste. (Many aftermarket shocks only allow compression adjustment)

BFG KO3 hasn't hit the tire shops yet?

 

Thanks, they're also made in Japan. And my lift kit made in Australia, Aussies know their shit.

 

Are those OEM Toyota rock sliders?

Any rubbing with those KO2s?

Sweet ride!

 

OEM, and zero rubbing after some chopping

 

That's MY sticker!!! Tell me where you got it please.


Edit. Never mind, I found it. It's on Amazon. Everything's on Amazon.

 

TRD off-road premium is most of the times the better choice. My modified KDSS truck will eat the stock TRD Pro for a snack.

 

Bought a silver-top FJ 4WD shift knob from Japan for better low-light visibility, Toyota P/N 36303-35210-B0:

 

Drove it for 1st time this week, working from home has saved gas$$$ not that I worried about it after all these yrs of commuting. Next week it'll sit in parking lot Mon-Fri travel for work.

 

5100’s installed @ 1.5 up front, still need to throw the 3/4 in rear. Discount Tire just did my wheels and new wild peaks! Super happy with the way it looks

 

Oil change day. 30k!

 

Appt next week to get these wheels installed + Dr KDSS goodies + onboard compressor

 

Picked up some pretty nice finished birch sheets at my local lumberyard to do a rear seat delete/drawers/cubbies/sleeping platform. Should be a fun weekend.

 

First you're incorrect, second, I follow POR15's guidance and use the 3-steps of products; Degreaser, Metal Prep, Rust paint. I don't need advice on this. If you followed me or took two seconds to check my posts over the months, you'd know this dude.

 

@MAXIM something about POR15 opens up Pandora's box of armchair experts, offering their armchair expert advice which was never requested. What do you think I'm gunna do, listen to you, and throw away all my POR15 products I've invested in. Agree to disagree. Like the post, or don't,and move on
