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

Covered and test fit my homemade sleeping platform inserts,

which add a foot and a half to the rear cargo area when the cargo tray is extended.

82" is enough for an adult, or two, to sleep in the back with the hatch up.

The two center feet are removable for easier storage...

...Sliding Cargo Deck Height?

Covered and test fit my homemade sleeping platform inserts,

which add a foot and a half to the rear cargo area when the cargo tray is extended.

82" is enough for an adult, or two, to sleep in the back with the hatch up.

...Can you tell me how many inches the sliding cargo deck 'floor' is above the actual floor of the cargo area, please?...looks like it is about 3-5 inches?...

Installed Spidertrax 1.25” spacers the other day. Some slight rubbing as expected at full lock that was easy enough to take care off. Extremely happy with the stance

Without measuring it,

I would estimate from the floor to the top of the tray is about 3 inches (making it even with the folded 2nd seat)

There is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches of usable storage depth underneath.

The tray protector/cover makes it seem higher as it has a raised lip running around the edge.

The tray cover is removed for sleep or when a flat floor is desired...
 
So actually yesterday 2/6 exactly three months after purchasing my 4Runner I broke 5,000 miles, first service appointment is scheduled for Friday... meanwhile we are expecting yet another French Toast Emergency here in NH apparently we're going to get 8in in 8 hours and naturally everyone is freaking out. we'll see what actually accumulates I'm quite sure the 4Runner will shake it off like it's nothing.

Opinions thus far? How are you liking the latches?

The latches are very sturdy as is the entire bumper. I have a certified welder on my staff, he is impressed with the welding. The powder coating is solid and clean. My tire will be here tomorrow, so we shall see if the extra weight affects anything. I am going to give it a week or so, then do a review.
 
General question that's not worthy of a new thread:

Can you run the Icon 2.0 rear shocks (non-remote) without a lift? The kit says 0"-3" lift on front, 1"-3" lift on rear. Can you not run the rears without a lift at all even though you can run the fronts without a lift?
 
Received a very special package that I cannot wait to install this weekend [emoji7]

I’m putting mine on this weekend as well! It’s not even out of the box yet, and I thinks it’s worth the wait time.

Congrats and enjoy!

Picking up my C4 sliders tomorrow am at fedex and straight to powered myself. Sooooo excited. Hoping there was no damage in transport. What are they charging for the powder coast in the A...T...L?
Exciting! I've only received one quote, but it was $150 to do the set.

C4 goes heavy on the wrap around the susceptible edges. Mine had a tiny knick (nick?) On one of the edges but wasn't worth fighting or returning
