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

I look at it from a safty point - nerf bar does zero for safy. Sliders can support the entire vehicles weight - some can do so on a single slider- that is added barrier in side impact. May not be designed for that, but it's better then a nerf bar. So imagin getting t-boned in town- do you want an added layer of cosmetic step, or solid steel helping protect your loved ones?

 

I'd have to agree with this line of reasoning. As for the OP's question about Husky mats, I've used Oedro mats in the past, cheaper than Husky, and a LOT cheaper than Weathertech.

Can I ask what it is that makes her want the nerf bars over the sliders?

 

Thanks for sharing the pics, they look great!

 

I have an Oedro mat for my rear cargo area & use Lasfit for my all weather mats. They are made of the same material, cheaper than huskey & weathertech & almost identical. Buy the cheaper ones & wait for a sale like presidents day, valentines day. I think they're having a sale now

Spending quite a bit of money today...

Installing some 17x8.5 -12 RRW RR6-H wheels.
BMC and TC Spindle Gussets

When I get it home from work I will be installing
Diode Dynamics interior lights
Meso Customs Hatch lights
Garmin Mini Dash Cam with Dongar power adapter

 

@jake long15 you asked for pics of my Cat Shields a few weeks back. Here are some:

Edit: And the loose wire hanging down, I was making a few small adjustments on wires running to wheel lights.

 

bought some LED's to upgrade the DRL's.
bought the meso customs switchable hatch lights
bought yota tv brand seat jackers
now i wait for them all to show up and a nice day to get these done.

 

Ordered the Meso dome light P/N UDLT4R-DB from 4RunnerLifestyle and it arrived after 8 business days. It comes in premium packaging as with previous Meso products:



I had to snip one of the plastic pegs in the OEM housing as it dug into the mosfet chip on the back of the LED circuit board. This took an extra 5 minutes with flush cutters:



Installed and function tested. The gray plastic color and texture are a match to the OEM button and bezel:

 

Just asked Admins to review !! Thank you too!!

 

The fact it listed place as "Alabama" is what raised my eyebrow about it. And I'm from Mississippi. (And that's not anything against anyone from Alabama, just seems rather curious to me.)

 

I look at it this way, my vehicle, my choice. I make the payments you do not. My modifications….en d of discussion.

 

No Offense But you claim 'My Vehicle, My Modifications, My Payments ' On a 2011" The vehicle is 13 yrs old ,What made you become so defensive to the OP comment's???

 

Yesterday went to "Soft Touch Car Wash" Yeah me

 

Not defensive. Just stating a fact. Obviously there are no payments on a 13yr old vehicle.

 

Well the post I was commenting on was saying how they wanted sliders BUT THEIR WIFE SAID NO.... my comment was an argument that could be made to such a wife, to justify the sliders vs nerf bars. So check the attitude - "happy wife happy life" is incharge of the check book even if "you make the payments"- don't go "Karen" on me for pointing out an obvious counter to her argument.
Dam. People take stuff so personally. Mister "I make the payments you dont"... REALLY??? I Had no *#!%*! clue. Check the attitude!
(must be a former Nissan owner)

 

How’s the weather ?

Everything ok here??

 

Really… Golf Foxtrot Yankee

 

agreeed

 

Just wait until the 6th gen comes out next year

 

nice runner

 

For the record, i was a previous dodge ramcharger and suburban owner… never a Nissan owner.

 

Don't make me pull this thread over....

 

I like the Nissan, particularly the old school v8 Armada.

 

Just rode in the Infinity version last night our friends have, actually VERY nice but it cost twice what are 4Runner did???

 

The infinity is indeed very good even though it's just an Armada in fancy drapes.
Infact if I can find a good deal on the V8 Armada platinum 4wd from 21' upward, I would trade it for my 4runner. It's the closest to my old LC200, that I miss dearly and the used prices on the LC200 are insane.

 

I came from a 2004 Pathfinder. It had over 325k miles and I never had any problems with it until one day while we were about 30 miles away from home, the transmission would not go into any gear higher than 2nd. She still got us home. I even drove it for a while back and forth to my local Home Depot for a few months until I sold it for $700. RIP-great car.

 

Spidertrax spacers today.
Specs:
Wheels 17x7.5 wheels wiith +5 offset
Stock Grandtrek 265/70/17

Needed some utility knife trim of forward part of bumper. Might need a fender liner and or/ Mud flap mod/delete on the front but its barely touching after the utility knife trim

But that being said I think it looks pretty damn good and its worth it. Followed directions sans did a 2 step torque 45 then 90lbs. Will pull tomorrow after driving to check it. Pics of before then after
