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

That dealer (formerly Boch) used to offer local pickup. Used to be great with no shipping costs and most things being 33% off. For larger items like wheels they might still do local pickup.

 

so lucky!!!

 

I'm jealous of that redwood interior ... on my list to try and find that or red from the Lexus!

 

100%

 

My daughter's '23 TRD ORP has that black softex interior (only choice I think?), and my wife's '23 RAV4 XLE has the black interior as well. My '22 Ford Explorer ST had a black interior, so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that redwood interior in a 4R (Limited only?). Wanting either nautical blue or met gray with the redwood interior eliminated probably 90 percent of the 4Rs that came up on my search. I found some powdercoat color samples online, and I'm down to either clay brown or copper brown as the closest color on this chart (maybe orange brown?):

 

Looks great! Thought to ask where you purchased it before noticing it's custom-made. Nicely done! Thanks for sharing.

 

My local fabricator modeled this one like the one from “80% Offroad.” I wanted DOM and there was an 8 week lead time, but it their stuff looks good and I’ve seen a few guys use their stuff. They look like a solid option if you don’t have a local fabricator who can do it. Also the stuff from @NguyenWorks looks to be the ultimate in high clearance but you gotta be willing to delete the rear cross member to get the most out of it.

 

Really didn't do anything to the SR5 but, I did send Toyota a request with copies of my title and receipt from the dealer to get that 2nd fob/key cost of $173.98 reimbursed as they never delivered the 2nd fob that was promised during the chip shortage. Will see what they respond with!

 

Looks amazing, great job

 

Are these bolts that kinda hang down need to be this long. They are on both sides near the mud flaps.

 

Cleaned the engine bay...

 

No more chrome handles! I love these, from Me-So Customes, bought them from YotaExpeditions.com.

 

How are the back edges on these I have heard some say they're kind of sharp?

 

FINALLY! Bout' time you joined the "no chrome interior" club.

 

I have these in my truck, and the edges are not sharp. To be honest, until I saw this post, I forgot that I had put them on my truck. They snap into place with ease and stay put. Even when I grab the door handle, I don't feel what separates the black cover from the actual door handle.

 

Just get some more cheap orange ratchet straps and make a spaghetti solution like you did for the stuff on the other side…

 

Ha! Not sure if that would work for the heavy trac boards

 

Took off the skids and noticed a small leak coming from the oil filter drain plug. Loosened the plug and re tightened it. I think it’s still leaking a bit. Likely the O ring for the plug will need to be replaced?

 

Very first "mod" I did never questioned it.

 

Was it changed in the last oil change? Was it lubricated before installing? Are they OEM filter and o-rings?

 

Damn I just realized that my tires are bigger than the norm. And I'm thinking about 35s

 

Installed some chrome edge iboards 5” running boards and OEM mud flaps. Much better looking and now wifey doesn’t have to ‘fall out’ to get out of her ride!

 

added this to headboard of my “ship”. I’ll defend it to the end.

 

Made another scan of the engine compartment and preparing the next mod...

 

i would replace O ring and go from there

 

Damn that engine bay looks better than new!
How did you get the air intake hose to be so shiny? Mine always goes back to flat black.

 

Full set of skid plates added today, chopped my bumper off last week, added a new roof rack and sliders the week before.

 

Gave the SR5 a bath yesterday afternoon.

 

Adding some steel to the rear bumper area?
