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

Did the H11-H9 Headlight mod since it was cheap enough and then finally put on the trail edition grille I had picked up.
 
Buddy of mine asked to take a few pictures of the 4runner. Here's what he got.

Also go check out his website dmedinaphoto.com

Going there next weekend. How was it?

Nice, I may be there. I go there almost every weekend if I'm not elsewhere. It wasn't bad although I forgot that it was school vacation for some, so like every weekend anywhere, it was a bit crowded. Decent snow but there was some exposure in spots. I hate being a weekend warrior.
 
new windshield :wow2: wiper blades and washer fluid.

had it weighted at a Travel Center of America - 5280lbs w just me + 1/4 tank of gas.
 
Went to work this morning at around 4am. Temp was a balmy 17F (5F with the wind chill). Came out to my truck, which was parked on the street, to get something at 7am. I had ice up to the lower part of my rim around all four tires. Water main breaks suck. Put her in D, went forward and came right out. Crisis averted
 
Went out to GWNF with my little brother today. His truck is an 06 DC Tacoma with the offroad package that he's building as his budget allows. So far he's running 5100s, a deaver add-a-leaf, and the ARB bull bar (CL find). He went almost everywhere I went, except for places where you'd want sliders. Already planning some camping/wheeling trips for the spring and really thankful that my brother and I can enjoy doing this stuff together.

Yep...that is a sheet of ice right next to a sheer drop...I definitely wiped out trying to spot him here.

Day Trip

Joneseyyy posted some outstanding photos, I almost did not bother to post my simple trip, but here it is:

Good snow yesterday, clear and cold today. Had to do a day trip near Lake Arrowhead – very pretty, all was white. Road was mostly OK, we did ice skate a bit in one section.

I really wanted to go; Lynda was still recovering from a cold. She said she can stay home and feel bad or take a ride and feel bad, but see something. – Best wife ever.

Played in the snow and mud. I don't think my dog had as much fun as I did, bouncing around over and through the ruts.
 
ARB Sidewinder parts arrived in no time

Almost what I did in my 4R...more like what I got for my 4R.
About two weeks from payment to delivery from ARB in Australia - awesome!:banana:
Lots of goodies to go through. Posted a couple pics here. Ill post the rest on my build page. Plus, I accidentally bought an extra part that I just might put up for sale. :naughty:

First time in 4WD. Outstanding! I wish that the rocker panel was more solid. It did not feel right using it to knock the snow off my boots before swinging my feet in.

These are great for knocking the show and mud off, but we still made a mess of the carpeted flood mats. Guess rubber would be better.
