I'm thinking of getting the same baja rack. Do you still like it? Any thoughts on it? Where did you run your wires too? Any more wide shots of your great rig?

I like the Baja rack a lot. The flat utility rack helps gain back some practicality that I lost getting rid of my truck. Hauling 4x8 sheets of material is doable now. I don't have anymore pictures. I'll get some decent ones when I start driving again in a week.

Retrofitted a set of cultura II switches into the PIAA harness. Wiring ran to battery.
Next comes the perilous task of dropping the headliner and doing the hard part of the wiring for the roof lights

The new setup looks good, man. You need to get that ass end up an inch or two.

Yes, I look at it every time I walk outside. I currently have 890s with firm nitrochargers. The ride is terrible.
I cannot decide if I want to go full SS 1.2 in the rear or not. I think 7 wraps would be a little tall for 265/70/17s though.
I have a set of 1.5" day star spacers I have trimmed to 1.0" that I may install in the meantime.

Updates.
I joined an event sponsored by ARB and Ok4wd in the Catskills. I had a good time testing its offroad ability for the first time and met some great people with some interesting rigs along the way


Also, I finally accomplished to perilous task of drilling holes in my roof for the PIAA lights. I dropped the headliner and used Heyco solar panel thru-plugs

I did a small weekend trip with a group from Tacoma world.
The 4Runner did MUCH better than I expected on some of the tougher trails that better equipped tacomas struggled on due to their wheelbase.

We explored around Dorset VT class 4 roads that turned into 4x4 trails, that turned into hiking trails.
Attached are some pictures and trail videos from one of the organizers.
