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

Jack stands are even cheaper! That looks like an accident waiting to happen.

There are three 6 ton jack stands under the frame... that bottle jack you see is only supporting the KDSS piston and the floor jack is supporting the LCA.....:shrug:

Wasn't planning on adding the second name badge, but my eldest wanted it here. Not sure how I feel about it yet.

On Monday I ran 6 miles at the Mohonk Preserve to get ready for a race on Sat. Great place to mountain bike for those of you so inclined.

Then I plastidipped my wheels.

Yesterday I was lecturing my juniors on the Common Core essay when one of my seniors came in, all excited I plastidipped the wheels.

Then another one came by and said it would have been better if I dipped them bright green.

Kids will always set you straight.

Bought a USB Splitter Cable and confirmed that the factory head unit has no problems charging a iPod and iPhone at the same time while streaming music over the blue tooth. I will eventually get songs on a USB drive and confirm that will also work. My main goal was to simply verify that I could charge 2 devices. I plan to add a permanent 2nd connection in the glove box.
 
Got my HIDs installed. Did both the headlights and fog lights with 4300k. These things are bright as hell. Xenon Depot really does make a great product.
 
Nice! Man you've got a pile of fun work ahead of you :thumb:

There's a lot more on the way. It's going in for the master diff rebuild kits, gears and locker soon so that will be out of the way at least. Wiring up the compressor this weekend too.
 
Plasti dipped the 4 runner lettering...but haven't decided on the logo. Installed some quick fist clamps for the LED flashlight. Probably could have mounted with one but there is zero rattle with 2.

Got new wheels. Method Mesh & NV and a bunch of cool stuff for my Tacoma. Should finally get the 4runner in about 2 weeks! Going to run 275/70-17 on both sets of wheels
