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

RCI sliders!

Awesome sliders. Are those weld on or bolt on?

Nothing really special. Just parked it next to "Gramma" (95 Tacoma). Couldn't resist, they look so cool together. :yo:

Drive from D.C. to Ohio with a few hundred miles in the snow. 4Runner handled like a champ

Neck Cushions

Damn comfortable. Bought it on eBay. Good quality. It fits perfectly to my neck curvature. Got it for all four seats.

Working on a new TRAIL logo.



Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

Just finished soldering and heatshrinking the harness for the Maestro RR stereo install kit. Holy shit that's a lot of wires. Now time to go pull apart my dash and figure out where to stuff all of it...

First try towing my bass boat with my SR5. Going up hills the SUV ran up the RPM's but never over 2600. Gas mileage was okay. Not sure fully loaded it would do alright so short hauls it'll do.

Took down the bar in the house n towed to the curb

I'm not a big fan on soldering any wires in a car. There is a reason for crimping wires. Soldering not only creates a week spot where cable can break but introducing soldering metal to copper wires creates a potential of "wire rusting problem".

Cool idea. Consider shortening the base of the L to the same distance the top of the T extends out, could balance the whole design.

I respectfully disagree. I prefer soldering when ever particle, for DC applications.

Why would it cause weak spots?? Or Rusting? Copper oxidizes, never heard of it rusting??

"weak spots" might be an issue if the conductor was require to constantly flex and bend.
But the crimp would have the same rigidity issues as a soldered connection. But the shrink tubing provides ample support to resist drastic bending at any one point.

DC vs AC current like to travel inside the wire so in this case it would be advantageous to solder IMHO.

The shrink tubing would limit it's exposure to the elements better then the open ends of a crimp, which would actually limit any oxidation that may be possible.

Brand new to the forum.
