I'm thinking about selling my 2012 4Runner. It's sort of a work in progress except not much progress has been made. What should I be looking to get for it in the current condition? I've just added the front tube bumper (no winch yet). Haven't decided what to do for the rear bumper. I looked...

Got it done. Not as good looking as the dark paint but I like it better than the bumper. Now that I've got it off I am starting to get lots of customer bumper ideas. Also found a spot on the rear left where the frame has been hit. Nice.

I purchased mine slightly damaged but made it more better on a few wheeling trips. I think the rear is coming off tonight. You just saved me $2k with those pics!

Man, it actually looks decent without the rear bumper. Any issues that have come up with it's removal? Mine has been hanging off and/or tied on with paracord for the past year or two. I think it may be coming off soon. 130k miles here. Replacing a bunch of front end components this week to...

Mike, what do you recommend for the following current/future setup? Figured I'd ask out in the open in case I have something similar. Current: I have an 63QT ARB fridge that is usually fully loaded in the back. Wood cabinet, pretty simple and light weight (under 50 lbs). Probably another...

Update Meant to post pics of how I figured this out. Better late than never. But, I wasn't able to figure it out, just went to plan B and built custom brackets to mount the cooler to the front of the radiator. This is the Tru-Cool H7B and I would recommend going a size down. It's a little...

Those of you that used the zip-tie type method to mount them, how the feck did you get access to the back of (what appears to be) the oil cooler?

Solar This was actually last Thursday and Friday, but installed a solar panel and final permanently mounted my ARB fridge that I purchased (I think) back in February. Tested it out on a one night camping trip at Barnwell Mountain Recreation Area in Gilmer Saturday night and today.

Any idea how to buy this rack outside of the group buy? Any distributors in the US?

Here's the overlap. It's actually not impossible to open the door (found out the hard, accidental, way), but for a permanent mounting, I'll need to trim it. Gas tank skid. Looking at that one frame hole, it could probably come down some to make it fit, but then there would be a gap between...

Definitely did that.

I have my driver's side bolted on with only a couple of bolts, but it looks like I'm going to have to trim my rear door trim in order to open the door. I didn't see anything mentioned about this for SR5's? Also, it looks like at least on my driver's side so far, there's a pretty large gap...

Yea, I just remembered that there's the little tab on the plug, so duh. Didn't notice any marking but will check tonight.

Dumb question, but does polarity matter on the 12-volt plug? I haven't found anyone else installing with this method, so just want to double check.

How do you plan on wiring directly? Are you going to cut the 12 volt cable? I guess I didn't realize there wouldn't just be an extra hardwire wire. I don't want the extra plug in my truck either. It's only useful for one thing and I plan to run my fridge 24/7.
