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

I had a head on collision with ... small bird. No damage to 4Runner (yes, this BOF truck is tough :whoo:).


Took out the small bird from the grill. By the smell "I think it's startin' to turn." :yo:

Installed the proportional brake controller, and the 4" drop ball mount. Alas, it wasn't enough drop, and the tiny Scamp was riding nose high....

:(

Adjustable ball mount on the way (3" to 7"). If anyone is looking for a 4" ball mount....

;)
 
half way though re/re a wheel bearing and hub. thought I had an inner axle seal at home, turned out to be an outer. back to the dealer we go!
 
Had to drive my parents home after my dad's gall bladder decided to act up while they were visiting (emergency surgery). He's fine now, and this may solve all the health problems he's had for the past few years. My wife followed in the 4Runner.

While there, after I changed the oil I obtained my brother's gate code for some private hunting club land. No tracks since the last rain, so I let 'er rip! Nothing like tearing down dirt roads with no one around.
:lookout:

Just enough mud to keep Lucy happy, but not so much I was rutting up their road (which my brother would grade anyway). Then a quick trip to the car wash so my wife wouldn't know what I'd been up to. :naughty:
 
Today was Daddy/Daughter day on the Bay, which I gotta say has been 'Rockin' so far this summer!

That's a 10 lb'er right there- 29" which is 1" shy of a Citation fish. Not bad for an 8 yr old right? She gets it honest :fishing:

I refused to help her and it took 15 minutes for Alex to real him in- I think this one sealed the deal for her. She is hooked!

She also got a 7 lb Cat and we nailed some decent Croaker- very rare for as far North as we were...:boink:

But I'm happy with the 5100 set up at 2.5

Well, it was yesterday, but I installed my 32" OPT7 Light Bar in the grille.






Used some concrete angle brackets and existing bolts/bolt holes on the bumper brace to mount. Fit like a damn glove. Only thing I wish I did was spray the brackets black. Is 100% zero chance I'll be doing it anytime soon though, as getting it in there wasn't the most fun I've had before.

AOB switch on the inside looks great also, it matches 100%.


Taking photographs is obviously a weak point of mine. :D
