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

[EburgRunner]

Pulled the factory steps off m y 16 trail for some Demello x wing sliders. Lift next !

Those are awesome and have definitely just made it onto my list of possible slider options.

Well that's freakin' awesome. Is it just a mode where it follows the transmitter? What does it use to do obstacle avoidance?

Thanks! That video was shot entirely with the Mavic's "active tracking" feature. I just set it up, then drove and let the drone do all the work. You can set it to visually target and track a vehicle or person, and it has various sensors to help it avoid obstacles. It's an incredibly sophisticated piece of tech!

Here's another video I just finished. This has some more tracking shots, plus a brief clip from a manual flight, and a few regular, non-drone clips:

Told the dealers body shop they need to redo my tailgate. It wasn't aligned quite right, the bottom edge was still rough, the interior panel had a clip not installed correctly, they didn't put the foam pads behind the license plate to keep it off the paint and there were scratches on it that weren't there when I took it in. Sigh.

Man that stinks. I am very particular about my vehicles and am also a professional technician that takes pride in doing quality work. I understand the frustration. Sadly, the reality is that once a vehicle has to be repaired (body or mechanically) there is the definite chance on things not being returned to original condition. That's just how it works due to different variables. Good for you for sending it back. I would do the same. Hopefully they get it fixed right!

Not today... 3rd year of Jambo

Got me memories

I guess Politicians- trail was to much for stock 4Runner [emoji848]

Got new wheels and tires mounted. Still need to install leveling kit and do something about that roof rack

Thanks. I'm extremely picky about this truck. To a fault honestly. They'd had it 10 days when they said it was ready. Waited for parts. They said it'd probably need both hinges and a new tailgate but then changed that to just one hinge. Was kinda hoping they'd replace the whole thing since I got insurance involved. Supposed to get it back Tuesday. We'll see. If not I'll be making phone calls.

I just saw the post that OVER 400 trucks showed up! That is amazing, for sure. I don't think I'll miss next year...

You can pop that back into shape from behind. Hit it with a buffer and it'll look acceptable. I did that to my old bumper 3 times at least. Looks like you had fun!!

Stripped my interior and pulled the carpet to pressure wash it and scrub the floor pan... again.

I have been busy with the truck lately.

Indel travel box 50 and slide. Hooked up a plug and volt meter for the fridge.


Method Grid wheels with 265/70/17 Hankook MT


Replaced my metal RCI skid with an aluminum

 

[2016 4Runner SR5]

I know I've seen this discussed before but I can't seem to find it. I know SR5 or Trail running boards will fit the Limited with modification. Can anyone point me in the right direction or tell me what modifications are required?

Took a comparison pic next to momma's stock 4th gen.

Ive got most of the cosmetic items changed that i wanted... now to the expensive additions &#55357;&#56853;

 

[zcruiser]

Put my Rally Armor flaps on the front, pretty easy. Rears are going to require removing the wheels...

Went in my TE to an amateur radio event today and won this in a raffle drawing.

Installed a Yakima skybox 16

Provided you are using the stock crossbars:

How badly did you scratch up your roof? Unless the clearance has changed, from the 2015's, you'll scratch on install and the cross bar clamps will contact the roof while driving due to factory cross bar flex.

I had the smaller skybox 12 before upgrading to the 20. The clamps on the 12 did not have nearly enough clearance. I had to use the yakima rail grabs and 48"crossbars. Eventually I upgraded to a gobi but if you go that route ask for an additional 1/2" to 3/4" of clearance/ basket depth on the stealth. the stock size works, but is a pain in the ass to install.

Thanks for the heads up on the Gobi Rack! I ordered mine 3 weeks ago. However I'm seeing no issue with the factory cross bars. There is enough clearance. But I will call Gobi to check. Thank you
