    bpwwer's 2015 Limited build and drive thread

    New wheels and tires! The first change I wanted to make after purchase was going to be tires. That was before I knew that the number of AT tires that were rated to fit the Limited's narrow rims was effectively zero. For the past 5 years, I've been looking at wheels and tires while I waited for...

    I have 4 2015 Limited wheels for sale. They just came off after about 50,000 miles. This is for the wheels and lugnuts only, NO TPMS and NO TIRES. Minor wear but no significant damage. Make me an offer! They're located in the foothills east of Sacramento and local sale only. Better...

    Alignment recommendation in Sacramento CA

    Radial Tire Service. I've been happy with the service there for both tires and alignments.

    Limited hidden light bar

    You mean something like this http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/186164-bpwwers-2015-limited-build-drive-thread-4.html#post1970148 I just used the mounting brackets that came with the lights.

    I don't think mine look quite that pretty but I did try to spread them out pretty good. I didn't want to mess with them too much as I had already twisted them up some when I had the driver and wires all in there too. My technique was to fold them over into the housing and then fan them out kind...

    LED headlights We do a fair amount of driving at night up in the foothills where deer and other animals are common. Like many here, we've been underwhelmed by the light output of the headlights. So, I finally decided to do something about it. I picked up a H11 Xtreme LED Pro Headlight Kit...

    No, but I guess I could try and get some. The location behind those slats in the grill do limit the output some and because it's set back like that, the bumper limits how much it can illuminate close to the front. On the positive side, it's pretty easy to install one there. Access is pretty good.

    Limited Light Bars

    I installed a cheap one behind the grill of my Limited. See http://www.toyota-4runner.org/5th-gen-t4rs/186164-bpwwers-2015-limited-build-drive-thread-4.html#post1970148

    hauling long things

    I use the latch. I just hook a bungee's hook end up and let the normal latch mechanism close over it and then run the bungee down to the hitch to hold the latch down. To unhook, just use the hatch open button like you normally would and it's back unlatched.

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    I've had my 4runners serviced at Thompson's Toyota up in Placerville for the past 10 yeas and haven't had any issues with them. I've been using Thompson's for purchase & service for about 18 years now. I have no complaints and would recommend them. They're certainly not going to be the...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Ah, I see, we drive past twelve bridges on sierra college all the time, but haven't yet turned on it to see what's back there. This looks like a good reason to check it out. Thanks! That's not too far from the old Titan missile silos I don't think you can actually get out to the silos though.

    So where in Lincoln is that? I drive through Lincoln quite often but can't place where you took those pictures. North/East maybe?

    5th Gen Spotted Thread

    No pictures, but I was amazed at the number of 5th Gen's I spotted while on vacation in Kauai. Seemed like we'd see one every 5 minutes! Most were stock but did see a couple that were nicely lifted. Of course, maybe it was the same 4 4Runners driving back and forth :) Also saw a lot of...
