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

[Sleeter]

Hood was stripped, painted and is getting wet sanded and buffed out.

Plastidip it after it cures.

Oh man, so awesome. Love that bumper! Did you get in on the group buy? I purchased the bumper with the low loop and the same light bar through the GB.

How do you like that light bar by the way? I haven't been able to find a review on it anywhere and chose it on faith alone.

Also X20 winch?

Hey, No I purchased without the GB. the light bar isn't that good compared to Baja design fog lamps. I would suggest spending extra and go with baja design light bar and leave the fog lamps stock and yes it's x20 10k winch.

I got in on the GB for the Lo-Pro as well. Initially ordered with that same ExtremeLED light bar but then bought a pair of the Squadron Sport fogs. I called C4 Fab and got them to change and upgrade my order to the S8 30" to keep everything the same. I think I'll be much happier with the BD S8. Sometimes you gotta wonder why something is 1/4 the price of another product. Plus BD lights are made in the US so can't complain about that.

If you're able to you might still be able to get them to change your order to BD.

Added hood guard to hopefully deter Rick chips in the windshield and finally new tires at 59,451 miles of ownership. Stuck with stock size.

Installed a new battery. Went with a group 27f. Just a little mod to the tray but otherwise it just bolts right in. It was only $70 for the 27f. I had thought about a 31 or 34 but there a quite bit more $$. Plus I’m not running anything that needs that much juice.

What did you use for the fogs? I tried Lamin-x but it won’t stay flush

I figured out a trick for a dry install of Lamin-x films after a little messing around. Not starting at an edge was the key. Cut off the tabs, line it up, and start at the middle. Just press down with finger in the center, and then extend around the center in a circular fashion until you get to the edges. Once you get to the edges just pop them under the housing with a credit card. Mine look like glass with no bubbles or impurities.

First film took 5 minutes. Second light took 30 seconds.

My girl didn’t want to get out. I don’t blame her

Purchased Wheeler's T-13 rear springs and some Bilstein shocks to go alongside my 6112 and DirtKing control arms. its time to go 2.5/1.5 so I can ultimately go with a larger tire size!

I completed my blackout process by getting the roof rails wrapped in vinyl.

Fixed the front. After doing the bumper and winch and dual battery it was raking and I had to fix it asap. Now it looks how the Runner should look imo !

 

[Diver Deuce]

Working on my super slow roof rack build. Cut and welded some 3/4" 9ga expanded steel... that ish is super sharp... I found out the hard way.

Tomorrow I'll finish welding and grinding then probably paint (VHT frame paint)

Disclaimer... those pink tools are my wife's :repuke:

 

[A10MileHusker]

Installed my [MENTION=151503]Off-Grid[/MENTION] 4x4 Dual Battery Tray as a test fit. Really like the fitment and excited to get started on my dual battery system.

Didn't get a picture but will tomorrow.

Planning on heading out to some dirt roads tomorrow to hopefully to snag some pictures.

More LED's!

Added interior LED's for a back-country party with a bunch of drunken geologists, and tested them out underground.

 

[rtinniste]

Floor jacks are the way to go for the majority. Not quite the cool factor as a Hi-Lift but way safer.

I really want to get one of these for my 4Runner https://proeagle-products.com/products/aluminum-floor-jack-00000

yup way safer and less sketch, I still plan on getting a hi lift once I build my roof rack it still has its uses. The pro eagles are nice but said and done I'll have maybe $120 into this setup :biggrin1:

Took the RTT and hi-lift off, snow in the mtns means skiing around the corner! I’ll probably go out to Moab one more time this fall.

It will be nice to park in my garage again...
