What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Maybe that could've been your bank account if you didn't dump all the money into the 4runner :thumb3:

I cannot speak for everyone, but boy has this stupid forum done a great job at wasting my money, lol.

Oh yeah, blame it on the forums. A waste? hardly.

Man, this is so freaking true! I keep having to hold my self back from the next purchase. Not to mention the continuous shpeel to the boss
"Babe, there's this mod" Babe: "what is it and how much does it cost"

LOL...I don't even ask anymore...just wait for the bill and beg for forgiveness

If I never found such cool mods all the time on here to copy, I wouldn't have any ideas to spend money on. You're right, it's not the forums fault, it's the ingenious members on here, lol.

I know that feeling, except my wife kind of just stopped listening during these conversations and just say "okay, if you say so". I'll take that as a yes :bolt:

It's certainly an improvement over the infamous question she usually fires back with, "do you really need it?" I can't win this particular battle ever, lol.

And funds lol.

I use the kids as my excuse.....(ie- these lights will help me avoid Zombie Barbie with action grip while driving the kids home from Gymboree at night, these wheels will help stabalize the truck if it were attacked by My Little Killer Pony, this suspension will help my son and I if Minecraft ever becomes reality.) Works everytime.....

or, my wife just feels so bad about marrying me.....
 
Test fitted my Yakima roof basket mod invented by [MENTION=74677]FatDave[/MENTION]



Fits like a glove! Only cost me like 50 bucks in supplies from McMaster-Carr to get it to mount the way I want, lol.

#super_anal :(
 
How much wind noise does that rack make mounted like that, at highway speed?

Not sure since I didn't actually install it yet, lol. Will report back when I finish. But, fatdave did tell me that it is pretty much silent, so that's always a good sign.
 
I use the runner for over landing purposes more than anything an I could never understand why Toyota would design a hood scoop that literally directs light directly into your eyes. So I since I'm on another road trip, I stopped by a vinyl shop and got my hood covered in flat black. What a relief!!!

Do you have any pics of that from the front? I'm definitely stealing the idea, just wondering how it looks from outside the truck.
 
Wife and I sold our condo and just bought our first "house" yesterday. Runner getting a workout for the move out/in. Not as much sag in the rear as I thought there would be. Movers for the larger items.

That wasn't as bad as I thought! Now to tackle drivers side!

Looks great! Not to be a debbie downer here but, the passenger side is the easy side, lol.

You better be prepared to chop off some of that gusset material on the driver side, or else I don't think you're ever going to fit the rear bracket under the KDSS pipes. Good luck with the rest of the install!
 
Oh yeah

Took less then 30 minutes to put on passenger side,, and about 3 hours for drivers side,, and ya I chopped the gussets right outta there, had to use a cut off wheel! But done now and it looks sick!
