I’ve always just wedged the wire into the fuse block. I learned this from my dad a very long time ago. Super ghetto, I know. I currently have a dash cam and radar detector installed. I just ground out to whatever bolt is convenient and I always tap into things that won’t create too much of an...
I’ve had my Gobi rack and ladder for a few months now. The other day I was looking at the ladder and realized that I will probably never use it. Every time I load my rack I open the doors and stand in the vehicle or on the back tire.
I also included the heavier gas struts when I sold the...
I’m also trying to convince myself that I need one. I just can’t get over the fact that I won’t be able to just drive away whenever I want if I have one up.
That being said, an awning will be my first purchase when I buy some form of camper.
20% is as dark as I would go for the front two windows. I think it’s the best of both worlds, you get the daytime privacy (especially if you darken the rears) and you can still see at night for the most part.
I had 5% tint all around on a Jeep GC back in the day and it absolutely sucked at...
I put 20% on my front two windows to match the factory rear 20%. It still isn’t dark enough for me. On sunny days, especially in the winter when the sun is low, you can see everything in my vehicle. I also don’t like the fact that the factory tint has a purple hue to it compared to the...
I found the perfect solution. This mount is great. I originally ordered an aluminum mount from tackform that is designed for a motorcycle. It was really well made but the grip was just too tight for daily use in the 4Runner. I called the company and they were very helpful in finding a solution...
2nd trip to CO with the 4Runner. 1st time with the Gobi. What a nice thing to have. I was able to keep all of our snowboard gear and fly fishing gear up top, leaving plenty of room in the cab for my girlfriend and our dog.
You’re lucky. I drive my 4Runner all winter here in Minnesota. Lowest temp I saw this year was -28F. Now that is cold. My girlfriend drives an 01 4Runner and often hits the road without warming up her 4Runner when temps are below zero. She’s at 250k and still running strong.
I couldn’t agree more with this. I tried one out and really liked it at first. But then I decided that it just isn’t worth the price tag. It was great on dry pavement, but it was too much for snowy/ icy roads. It is being sent back in the mail tomorrow.
No complaints from me either. I have a 55# pointer mix that likes to hang out wherever she wants. I own one of those backseat hammock deals for dogs but I don’t even use it. It’s actually in my girlfriends 2001 4Runner.
I had a front end clunk that was driving me crazy. It showed up after a small lift and allignment. Now that it’s warm out I figured that I better deal with it. I was out with my brother earlier today trying to figure it out. We thought it was my LCA’s clunking everytime I would quickly hit the...
