Went to Snowshoe Bike Park in West Virginia over the holiday weekend.

 

[Friggin Idiot]

Ran errands, new tires for the boat trailer, X2 batteries for the boat. Replaced the blown Tow Tail fuse so the trailer has running lights again (why isn't there a spare 30A fuse?).
Had to bend the driver's side arm on the [MENTION=110183]SouthernSS[/MENTION] bumper back into place so I stop getting tire rub in reverse. I guess I had hit it on something running trails 25Jun. Also got new license plates in after losing one on the trail. Not sure why I need a front plate, but the state of Ohio can write a ticket for not having it.

Nice looking setup... mind me asking what size tires you're running? I was just looking at those today but couldn't decide on the size.

Kicker Hideaway

Kicker Hideaway subwoofer installed a couple months ago but detailed my 4R today and shot some pics. It fits perfect under either seat and well worth installing as it really helps fill the weak factory audio with clean and thumping bass. It's definitely comparable to the JBL packaged Limiteds now. I chose to install under the driver seat as my rear 40 seat lays flat 99% of the time so I have no concern with passengers or my kid kicking it :biggrin2:

[MENTION=102398]DeepSea[/MENTION] Great looking Rig! I love the black fender flares, IMO it greatly improves the look of the vehicle. It was an excellent feature separating the TE from the others in '10-'13. First mod I'd do to a gen 5.5 My buddy [MENTION=140132]coltm4[/MENTION] did it as well, looks awesome.

Thanks bro and I agree 100% as it helps break up the color a bit. I'm on the fence with getting Bushwackers next and leaving them black

 

[DeepSea]

[MENTION=102398]DeepSea[/MENTION] I love your 4Runner and all your pics. Im going to try to duplicate your height and stance on mine. Yours sits/looks the way I think a Runner should.

Right on thanks bro. I've seen a few out here running 6" Fabtech suspensions and must say they look badass. Some people arent fans of drop bracket lifts but they fully clear bigger tires and keep the CVs/steering/alignment like OEM
Here is a MGM I saw the other day

Woke up, fed the dogs, looked out the window at the truck to find a lurker with a flashlight looking in the window. Damn slow and loud garage door foiled my plan, but no broken windows, caught him just in time!

Today I installed red shackles on my Pro.
I know it's so very common, but they give the perfect amount of red hint in a white/black car !

Yeah... I am anti-front-plate, but both Texas and Colorado require them. So, I just let it be. Got 4 warnings (pulled over and everything) on the way to and from Colorado the year we got married up there.

New plan... :50cal:

...kidding. ...but I did think about it. ...still kidding.

I ended up putting in a very sensitive CompuStar T11 system for this very reason (Thanks, [MENTION=93434]gshadow325[/MENTION]). On our way back from Colorado last month, we stopped at a hotel in Dumas, TX. Midway through the night I heard the alarm going off. I went to the window of the hotel room to find the alarm blazing and a guy running away. I guess he was trying to get the FuelPax off the roof rack because it took me a second to get out of bed, but he probably woke up the entire West side of the hotel. I reset the alarm, and went back to bed... too bad there was no sleeping at that point.

I appreciate you getting back with me... I'm a little surprised you still rub after all the modifications. I hate trying to decide which size to get. Even with a toytec 2" I'm thinking I can barely fit 33's and still making some mods

Well some guy just smoked Fiona while she was parked in the lot at work. Haven't even had it a year. Anything I should be looking at/for when getting this fixed? I've never had a vehicle in an accident before. The guy admitted fault to the police, got a report and all that good stuff. Happy Thursday [emoji30]

:frusty: That sucks!
Were you parked like an A-hole or did he push your truck that far out of its original spot?

Just got done spraying mine down with Eastwood Internal Frame Coating & External Rust Encapsulating paint. Fluid Film is also good for quick protection.

Any write-ups anywhere for a good products list and procedure?

He literally hit me that hard. Pushed me damn near into the next spot. Just went outside to try and make sure I can drive it in the parking lot and the ignition is locked completely. Tried moving the steering wheel thinking it locked. Nope. Something is screwed up

Yesterday, I replaced/upgraded the differential bearing with the ECGS clamshell bushing, a new CV axle, seals, diff fluid, etc. Replaced all of the fr/rr brake pads while I was at it. I'm glad I thought to do the rears as this was what the pads looked like. Topped it all off this morning with a new set of KO2s including spare with 5th TE wheel.
