Mjolnir Build Thread and Journey across the Bifrost

A week later I went to beef it up a little but and ran into a couple issues with parts not fitting with KDSS, ended up with just the new wheels and tires Toyo A/T II 265/70R17 (only to be subbed for another set of new tires)

Where did you get the black lug nuts? I have those same wheels on my black SR5P and I haven't been able to find any black lug nuts. Thinking about just painting my chrome ones black. They don't get taken off much and I could always do a little touch up if needed.

I actually bought them when I had the lift and new tires done, they were a little pricey ($200ish I think) but I didn't realize at the time that they're the locking lug nuts which require a key... Probably unnecessary in hindsight. You would be better off painting yours, unless you wanted to spend the extra money.
 
Damn, 200 bucks for lugnuts?

Anyway, I love the name. In addition to it being the name of Thor's hammer, the Master Chief's armor/suit (Halo) was also called MJOLNIR.

Went camping up at Glendo Reservoir in Wyoming.. Great time with great people! I was a little nervous towing the boat 200 miles each way but was surprised how well he performed. And surprisingly there was very minimal sag in the rear. The boat, trailer and equipment all together probably pushed 4,500lbs.

Dirty Heads at Red Rocks! Quite possibly the best concert venue EVER!!!

We did a little tailgating in the rain. As we were grilling, I couldn't help but think how awesome it would be to have the set up [MENTION=129593]MTN4RNR[/MENTION] custom made for his 4Runner! Max, if you lived closer, I would pay you to make one for me! Haha

Thanks for the thought, man! It's a very practical design, with (almost) no modification to the existing cargo area, aside from removing the OEM tie downs and 2 trim pieces. I will be doing a write up soon with some more product details. But I have considered a potential small run of these for others. Nothing is certain yet though, I will keep you updated :thumb3:

Say, what cargo box do you have and what is your rack/mounting setup?

Nice looking ride!

I believe I went with the "Thule Sonic M." It's a pretty decent size, It doesn't cover my sunroof or the antenna in the back. And the rear hatch doesn't hit the box either. Also the thing is super easy to take on and off. The rack is the factory rack and crossbars, that is until i can drop some $$$$ on a Gobi.
 
Bought a set of Rigid Industries fog lots and wiring harness used for $120 (seemed like a good deal to me!)

Install wasn't as bed as I had anticipated, wish I would have taken pics of the install but it was kind of a tight spot to even get my hands in.

Anyway, not entirely sure what the beam pattern is, can anyone help me out? Sorry for the crappy pics..

Nice mod. Did you get a pair of Duallys or D2s?
 
I honestly have no idea, I bought them used and the guys couldn't remember what they were.

Hmm well from your pic it looks like 4 amber LED bulbs, which means they are likely Duallys. I don't think there are any 4-bulb D2s that come in amber. So if they are Duallys your beam pattern options are flood or spot, and with how far wide / up the trees the beam goes in your pics, I would guess flood.

Just a poorly educated guess though, I could be wrong :noidea:

Makes enough sense to me! And they're not actually amber, they just have a yellow tint over them that I am debating peeling off... I kind of like the color though. So it's probably safe to say I shouldn't drive around with them on? I have yet to be flashed by anyone though haha. I think Dually flood is a safe assumption to make after comparing them online.

I like that color too, it's fitting for fogs and stands out in a good way. It looks very similar to PIAA and BD's amber. I fall on the side that values our fog lights for what they are designed for, so I only turn mine on in inclement weather. We don't really get fog that often here so you don't need to worry about the flood pattern reflecting too much, and I personally like seeing other vehicles with amberish fogs on during thunderstorms and snowstorms. I can see them better.

That being said, if you really love the look of them on at night and haven't been flashed or pulled over for them I say go for it!! If you feel like you need more light on the road on normal nights, you could also go for HID low beams.

I'm thinking of doing the 4300K phillips HID from [MENTION=12905]XenonDepot[/MENTION] but also curious about the LED as well. I know HID has better light output, just not sure about spending the money...

How do you like your output with the 5000K?
