Mytoy4 Build Thread

You might be thinking of the Tiregate or CBI, that both mount in the trailer hitch. The Tiregate swings out and the CBI folds down. I am the same way. I don't want a full rear bumper but would love a rear carrier. [MENTION=79982]T4rman[/MENTION] has my favorite solution to this in the works. Check out post#210 on his build thread.

I would however be interested in the LED lighting, Austin. Could you send me something? I want to have my gauges done, but I HATE shipping stuff!
I'm trying to get my wheels ready for shipping now and it's a total PITA!

I totally forgot about a rear locker. That is something I'd want to add. I think I'll start researching that.

Look to eastcoastgearsupply.com they build bolt in ready rear carriers built to your spec. (as in which locker you would like, gear ratio's solid pinion spacer, triple drilled pinion flange etc.) you can call chase at ECGS and he will gladly talk you through everything as well. You get theirs shipped to you then you have 3 weeks to get your original carrier shipped back to them for a core charge. (so yeah you'll have to deal with shipping but it's definitely worth it in this case.)

I'll pm you the links to the lights on amazon (just give me a sec to dig them up), I only purchased the map lights, dome lights, and door lights from amazon. for most of the HVAC lights you can go to superbrightleds.com and look for there interior automotive lights then goto Neo3 and neo4 style lights. choose your colors and order however many you need. (i would purchase a few extra encase you find an extra light needed somewhere or get a faulty LED) I'll have to go back and count how many of each size you need. You can also get the surface mound led's for changing your gauge colors from the same website. you will have to endure the souldering process though if your up for it though thats awesome. I took the easy route and shipped my gauges to alex.

that is a cool idea I haven't thought of that. Definitely less costly compared to a rear bumper.

I do like that! What I worry about too, is that I'll NEVER get it in the garage. My husband's workbench is in front of my 4Runner and with my trailer hitch on, it just fits.

Oh and let me make something clear here. I don't think my husband likes doing things for MY truck. I have to either figure things out on my own, or ask someone to help me. In cases like the hail damage, of course he HAS to help me do this, but I have to push a bit to get it done with a reasonable time. Men!! :jk::jk:
