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

Yesterday i ran a constant hot 12v plug to the rear to power my Snomaster fridge/freezer and replaced my abs speed sensor cables. Today, I'm off to find an Odyssey battery. Nothing too exciting.
 
Removing the running boards will give it a much better "lifted" look for the interim.

This. I did this in the lot at the dealership when I bought my FJ. Sold them to one of the mechanics for $20 and a high five. It'll make a small, but significant difference... if that makes sense.
 
Did some camping at Lake Mary in Flagstaff, AZ

More power! (In an Arnold voice)

I knew this upgrade was coming, so last group buy I got a group 31 cage. Battery took a dump on our camping trip on the way home, luckily this old timer in a jeep was putsin around and drove by right as I realized we were dead. It's our only family ride besides a work vehicle which isn't a option, so it had to be done sooner than later. Got the x2 from batteriesplus 370 after online order and 20$ mailin. I did the [MENTION=2636]TITAN[/MENTION]pat post extension. The cage worked great, lost a nut between the relay box somewhere.....hopefully it will jump out on it's own one day. I will get a tender in the near future. I'm glad she's purring with more power now, I was having withdrawals since I had to drive the mini 4runner from my mom(rav4, it is peppy thought, I miss that 4banger in my 05 taco)

[MENTION=139892]FrenchToasty[/MENTION] I like your red battery cage, how was that painted? Powder Coat?

I wish I would have thought to take it to powder coat when I had my front bumper done, sadly I'm a space case. I just rattle can sprayed only the top of cage, the lower mount is bare(stainless I believe), then a few clear coats, def not dry when I went to tighten them nuts!
 
Got home from the hospital for surgery on my leg... it's gonna be a good 6-8 weeks until I can drive the 4runner again but it could always be worse. I'll probably be on here frequently for the foreseeable future

That looks like a world of suck. Hopefully you have a good story for it.
