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

Oh yes yes

Edit: It was around $72 (plus MS 7% sales tax so a little more than $77).

 

That is not stock

Just kidding..

 

Did the cheat mode spring swap, but forgot to mark one of the cam bolts and now my caster is obviously wrong. I'll get an alignment tomorrow but it still tracks fine.



Melted the mudflap bulge a little bit still kinda want aftermarket. At least I don't have to worry about rubbing the front fender anymore.

 

I just installed high clearance rocker caps after trimming that area as well. They are 3d printed, lets see how well they holdup. You can get them at https://minwin3d.com/products/high-clearance-rocker-end-caps

 

Just got my Aspire Brite box "Anytime Fog Light W/Sm Blue OEM Switch" Unfortunately I leave for airport in 30 min, BUT I'm coming back Wed night instead of Friday!! Nice looking unite. I did the add relay splice into wires on my 2018, this looks a lot easier.

 

Back from the dealer today. They're covering the KDSS front shock replacement under warranty, parts and special service tool required to do it are on order.

 

Looks great!!! Is this your site? If so well done. I’m ordering and glad to review.

@djwantke you might like these

 

Awesome and glad to hear!!

 

Oh man I dunno if a viper cut would have fully stopped that rock damage, oops, f*** it right!? I've thought to myself before, once on these rocks what's the proper strategy to get off, for the bumper.
I recommend getting your hands on a Dremel saw just cutting it yourself. I did it in the garage last year, not hard, yes I was nervous. But hell you already scraped the rock

Should add your rock damage to my thread LOL

Dudes, I love these

 

Replaced my non-existent OEM splash guards with ARK.

 

Whoah! That’s easy to miss! Good catch on that!

 

@Yotaholic can hide problems with your cuts with cowles automotive edge trim

 

Got the high clearance cut done. Incorporated a curve, similar to what T4R Garage did.

 

I had this on my 2020 ORP, removed it and reinstalled it on my 2022 ORP. It is pretty easy to install. The hardest part (for me) was getting the wire harness through the rubber grommet in the firewall. Other than that, it is very easy.

 

Yup. Happened to catch it when I swapped my winter wheels & tires on. Makes you wonder if a dealer tech would ever even notice it. Pays to crawl under your truck once in a while!

 

Love those lights!

 

Added a 0.5" lift to the rear today (already have the front set at 1.6"). Bottle jack between the axle and the frame made removing/replacing the coils a lot easier. The entire job took less than 2 hours.

Now I have the same stance as a Pro, but 1/2" taller all around (and 33's). I'm happy with the way it looks.

 

Yeah I did Antman's mod on my 2018,not sure this vendor had this back then. Had to semi disassemble steering column, cut into wire, splice add relay run a power $ add a fuse. I still have the schematic/diagram if anyone wants it. Just gonna take 3 plug terminals out of pwr connector, tape it to 1 sided straight scribe, pierce it through that boot, RTV it then re-install the Brn, Blk, Grn wires back in their respective slots..It's supposed to be in 40's I may use electric heater my wife uses when getting Xmas decorations together on my work bench.

 

Which switch did you use? Did you buy the "Anytime" I like having that option for dawn, rainy days, dusk & W/hi beams on.

 

Washed off all the mud and other grimy bits!

Also picked up the last stuff I needed to get the front plate mounted since those just arrived.

 

Were you on stock rear coils?

 

Trying a new phone mount. Will use it for sometime and post if there is any issues-

definitely curious to see how this works after some use. I don't like have the phone in the middle of the dash. Becomes a distraction but I have been trying to figure out a place to put it when it's connected to CarPlay. I like the center counsel mount Pro Clip has because then the phone doesn't take up the much needed cup holder!

 

Give me some time. I drive very less. I will atleast try some gravel road before I say it's good.

 

No rush at all! Just excited for a new approach on something. I had a Rago Fab dash mount but it felt too bulky.

 

Nope! My 3d prints are no where near this good, I'd be embarrassed to even give away what I have printed lol.

With that said these are near perfect the contour lines are on point and looks factory. Make sure you have the yellow clips they do not come with them

 

Thanks to 4Runner Lifestyle I was able to buy these plus the Dome light! Super easy to instal and love the RED lights! Now can anyone tell me is there after market Red bulbs for the lower door lights? Also sorry not the best pics but you get the point!

 

Added some Rad Rubber wheel well shields. Bought them back in March and were sitting around. Today while adding some fluid film I went ahead and installed them.
They are much thicker than the original and the plastic clips are strong and quality.

 

Raptor lights. Gonna put them on. Had them on my TRD RO. I just watched the video from

I'm away from home till tomorrow night. He says to use Ign 10a in eng bay fuse box. That'd make them on when ever ign on. My question does anyone have the underside cover of that fuse box. I want to tap into parking lights.
Looks like gotta tap the Stop/Tail fuse in the interior fuse box.
