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

Swapped out the rear Daystar spacers and stock springs with some Wheeler's T13 springs I picked up a few weeks ago from another member. The job is way easier if you unbolt the sway bar brackets, as we discovered after I bent one into a snake shape while pushing down on the axle.
 
towed some toys to the dirt. Finally some nice weather in PA. Got the dirty bikes out!

Installed AVS bug/rock shield, window deflectors...as well as a complete exterior and interior Aiden James lighting kit.

Low's, high's, fog's, switch back turn signals...and everywhere else you could put an LED inside and out.

Totally transformed the paltry stock lighting.
 
Finished installing my add-on Relay and Fuse panel. Re-wired my on-board air and light bar. Added waterproof plugs. Finally added the Anytime Rear Camera wire harness/switch. So easy!!

I am going to eventually get around to re-wiring my switches... may add a switch panel to the center console.. i dont know yet.
 
Drove up a snowy road, got stuck and while reversing down, slid into a snow drift/ditch. Took some time and had to be pulled out but made it home safely. 4runner only missing some rivets on the mud flaps, after being winch out. Can any on direct me to a good place to order new ones or what the part number is?

t13 rear springs and 1.5 wheel spacers installed. Not happy with the front studs barely getting any thread engagement so ill be removing those and switching to a different brand. maybe Synergy didn't account for the short front studs these dumb toyotas have.
 
Pre-Summer Check

Made the best of it with the brief warm weather we had on Long Island. Did a pre-summer check on equipment and headed out to the beach. Beautiful day with gorgeous sun, soaking it all in.

Born and raised on LI, left about 3 years ago. Other than pizza, bagels, and a real sandwich (hero), the beaches are about the only other thing I miss lol. Hard to beat a nice LI day on the water.
 
Broke it in off road

Only 2 weeks old and already having fun.

A quick video coming down a pretty steep hill.

Wasn’t today, but the other day I used it like the pickup truck it’s ancestor used to be haha. The Rago side panels sure came in handy to protect my windows and to allow me to strap stuff down better, and the Canvasback cargo liners kept the inside in good shape. The canvasback liners are fantastic, in case anyone was wondering. As a construction manager for a restaurant group, having this stuff in the back is a life saver and let’s me keep my 4Runner instead of trading for a Tacoma :)
