    3rd Gen 4Runner Auxbeam Install on Manual

    I recently bought a set of the Harbor Freight LP6 knock-offs and decided to purchase an Auxbeam Panel for the switches. Started by watching this video, which recommended riveting the panel to the firewall. Cool. No problem. I bought that Harbor Freight Rivet gun I've wanted and guess what...

    Husky floor mats + Coverking seat covers Our floor mats were looking haggard. I was planning on replacing them with generic rubber mats. As luck would have it, my friend was trading his old 3rd gen in (don't worry, he bought another one) and was kind enough to trade me his Husky Floor...

    Interior LED Light During our last camping trip, we discovered the interior lights were pretty dim. So, I picked up some LED lights. Based on forum recommendations, I found https://www.superbrightleds.com. They seemed to offer the best bang for your buck. $20 later.... This little 4 LED...

    For our first wheeling trip, we ran the Bald Mountain OHV trail by Shaver Lake. There's an easy way to get up there and a not so easy way....our friends are dicks. Things started out mellow enough. But quickly grew steep and ledgy. Salty don't care. He handled everything with...

    Some of our friends were headed out to Shaver Lake in the Sierra's to do some mellow wheeling, so they invited us to tag along. To get ready, we pulled the trailer hitch off the truck (it drags....ask me how I know) and bought some new tires. I wanted to hold off on the tire purchase until...

    Painting the sliders Painting is fun. Not. If I had to do this again, I would have painted the sliders first, then welded them on. Our friend who welded the sliders suggested waiting, he's done a few sliders, and he says they often get scuffed up during the welding process. I think retouching...

    Tundra Brake Upgrade Stock brakes. F* these things. Winning. It should be noted that we used Napa calipers. They did not clear our stock wheels, so some grinding may have taken place. But just a smidge.

    Salty Dawg Build Thread

    Before driving home, we picked up a small set of tools from Harbor Freight (just in case), and had some cheap front tires installed. The old ones were worn, so we wanted to play it safe. The truck got us from Utah to CA without a single issue....except the brakes. They sucked. More on that in a...

    Salty Dawg Build Thread

    My boyfriend and I were on the hunt for a 3rd Gen 4runner for several months before we discovered Salty. It took a while because we wanted an unmolested vehicle with relatively low miles (sub 200k), a V6, 4x4, e-locker, and manual transmission. We eventually found our truck on the T4R...
