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

Truck is looking good, not a red vehicle person but that red is growing on me.

Also love that the Xmas lights are still up

Duc - I realized that Hyperspots are considered a D2, by Rigid and TAP (as opposed to a Dually), but split the difference in cost between a Wide/Driving D2, and a Spot/Flood Dually. They fall in the middle.

Cost for a set of D2's (Wide/Driving), shipped is $292.00. I apologize for the confusion, and rescind my previous statement. I should have made it more clear which D2 I was referencing.

I honestly didn't know they were labeling the hyper spots as D2s. That is a bit misleading on their part. The D2 name was reserved for the duallys that had the 'specter' lenses (or 6 leds in a dually). I can see why this was confusing. No biggie.

Yah, to be honest, I am not sure. The Hyperspots are still billed as a Specter Optic, as opposed to a Hyprid Optic (Dually), but cost wise they dont match up with either and instead fall in the middle!

Got the shrockworks on. It took some manhandling but it's on. Going to fine tune it this weekend.

Escort 9500ix I'm loving the look of it.

Great mounting job. Have not used a radar detector in years, how would you rate that Escort?

Last week

Niagara Falls / Thunder Rocks, Allegheny State Park NY

Towed the TT, made 500 miles in one day without being over-stressed.

Zero issues towing cross country with the 4runner.

That is exactly how I ran mine, but I used black hose. Looks great!:becky:

Broke a record!

 

[jsherwood]

Took the kiddos out to get breakfast burritos this morning. It is this hole in the wall drive thru with KILLER grub. I was in line behind a 5th gen limited and a 5th gen trail. Busy day for 4runners!

Wow, that's impressive!

By the way, your compass wants to be calibrated.

Follow up previous post with photos, RadFlo 2.5" shocks & coil overs & Camburg ball joint UCA installed with 285/70R17 BFG KM2's on factory trail rims. After alignment no rubbing while going forward, minor rubbing in reverse and 3/4 lockish. Yes I do need to get rid of the dealer tag holder, i plasti dipped it for a temp fix while doing the roof rails.

Removed the ATF return hose...

Plumbed in a Long 4589 ATF Cooler...

So I won't cook the tranny this summer while pulling this...

 

[Rushca01]

Finished up my rear storage box:

Finished wiring up the Rigids for my CBI 5th Gen windshield brackets:

Finally - although its not a 4Runner, it is a Toyota! - Went on a trip to Great Sand Dunes National Park in CO the other day. Came in the back way over Medano Pass:

Would love some details on your storage box. Dimensions would be great.

For sure - I can do some measuring for you, and give you the breakdown if you like. It was honestly made with just scrap material I had around the house, so its not exactly the most effective/lightest etc., box out there, but it works for me, and is relatively low profile. It is a top open rather than a drawer system (due to my lack of skill in building stuff, and for making it lower profile.

Looks perfect, honestly looks like how it should come from the factory in terms of height in my opinion. Doesnt intrinsically look "lifted" in the sense that its higher than someone would expect it to be. Not all lifted 4Runners look that way to me.
