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

Had the afaternoon off so decided to crawl under the SR5 and check out the grease zerks......don't think grease was ever put into them.....greased 'em all up then gave 'er a good wash to get the salt and crud off 'er!

 

Installed the Cali Raised Molle panels about 2 weeks ago but finally got some time, and warmer weather, to start attaching a few things today. Need to order a few more of the Quick Fist mounts then I'll figure out the rest later.

 

double like.
looks great!

 

Nice work good eye mate

I've never done this because I hear that my trusted Valvoline Oil change folks next to my house grease all deez sorts of things at least they tell me that. I don't do my own fluid maintenance..yet.
So far I've invested to self teach myself tire rotations, wheel spacers and other bolt-on mods, balljoints, automotive electrical.

 

What grease did you use?

 

So after reading @kmeeg post the other day I'm like hey, what 4R's are on my city's Toyota Dealership lot.
The answer is 4.
F.O.U.R.
1 Off Road
3 Limited's
(When I bought my 2016 Trail new I waited for it on a boat from Japan)

I suppose I have Justin Turd-eau to thank, ultimately.

 

this is gunna b good

 

Doing it yourself can sure save you some money! When it comes to electrical though?.....gotta find somebody smarter than me! LOL

 

Amsoil NLGI2

 

The amount of KDSS ORP on the dealer lot.

 

God bless America
(and I'm a dual citizen mind you)

 

Rebuilt all 4 corners

 

Where did you go. Want to store for future reference.

 

Also like to know if it's a one or 2 days job? Like did you drop the vehicle and pick up day or 2 later?
(So I don't have to use temporary shocks and pay shop for install and remove multiple times)

 

Because people love KDSS

 

This man is right ^

KDSS is winning, bigly

 

20 mpg with steel under the truck, steel on both ends, two spares(one on the carrier), 12k winch, Viper cut and Load E 34s. And stock gearing. Still beat the EPA

 

Where do you get 20MPG from? Your post shows 17.7 & 17.9 MPG (Average for the tank)

 

"Quality Gas at a Great Prices" Not in over 3 years!!

 

He manually calculated by taking the distance traveled and fuel pump amount in the pic. Wonder if onboard calculator is off due to tire size?

 

Yeah, I get that. He got 20.0007 for that particular trip. But show me the overall TANK average. Shit, I can get 23MPG if I take a short trip 12 miles away, assuming the driving conditions are right.

 

yesterday I finished the elusive premium mirror upgrade.

BTW OldRed is the man.

 

Thanks for choosing us for your Molle panels and sharing pics! The setup looks great, looks like you have all your essentials mounted

 

124.85/6.218 = 20.07. The speedometer is messed up due to larger tires. So following GPS for distance.

 

Valid point. But I did get 19 mpg Olympia to Portland and back, and that's more than a tank.

 

I would kill for some US priced Arco gas in BC Canada right about now. I'm assuming your suggesting that Arco gas has not had a great price for 3 years

 

I like Arco, it is less expensive than others despite being Top Tier rated. I like Shell but they are on the greedy side

 

I got about 20.2 going across Washington, through Snoqualmie Pass and back. 700+ miles, 300lbs of stuff, on Blizzaks. I was happy with that.
