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

[97BlackAckCL]

Got the Morimoto XB LED fog lights wired up, and they match the HID's perfectly!

And some night time shots, you can see the nice fog light cutoff (gf was not impressed...)

And the fogs at night

Say cheese! :thumb:

Installed a Uniden Pro520XL cb radio with a Wilson lil wil mag antenna.
Went the wire/cables through the grommet on the passenger side to get through the firewall and routed them under the center console.
I don’t have a cb accessory switch yet that will fit in the spot where the rocker switch is now.
Going to end up buying a firestik and mounting on my roof rack. Want to get a foldable adapter for it as well since i park under a car port. Since i put a hole in my console. I’m gonna go ahead and drill a hole for the mic and put in a grommet. I saw a real clean setup here on the first page. https://www.4runners.com/threads/communication-equipment-cbs-antennas-etc.90/page-2

Did you have to remove the factory rack in order to clear the garage?

antenna still sticks up, i didnt really like the look. Prefer it without.

Huh...... read the instructions, and they really dont say anywhere what kind of grease to use.


I just did my SPCs the other day, and SPC states NLGI #2, so this is what I used from Tractor Supply

Ya I called and asked. They don’t specify any grease and we’re ok with synthetic multi purpose. They said the most important thing was to grease every 3-5k miles for the ball joint and the bushings half as much.

You could say I am pretty stoked right now.

Changed the rear diff oil and t-case with Severe Gear 75w-90.
I'm pretty sure they have not been done previously.

Picking up a Borla exhaust on Saturday, I will post a few sound clips after install

I'm not sure the t-case is supposed to have 75-90 in it? How many miles did you have and how did it look?

 

[Frasty]

And so it begins....my first official mod. Plastidipped these biatches

 

[Hamburgerpimp]

Thanks ya I’ll give icon a call

This is what to use.

Just a teaser, more to come along with dashcam video once I get back to civilization next week.
Explored some of Holston Mountain TN, tested my ups a little. I was impressed!



Took a "seasonal road" that I gave up on when it got too narrow and challenging to drive alone. Backed into a stump hidden in the shrubs while trying to turn around. I was able to use my tool kit to loosen everything up on the corner, and then fit it mostly back together. I broke at least one of those hidden plastic clips, but at least it happened on the trail!

Guess it is time for an upgrade... :lookout:

Toyota calls for 75W but they also want like $50qt.

There are plenty of people running Mobile 1 Syn 75/90 in their T-case...I'm using it in mine.

Total chaos upper control arms

I understand your concern. I called my nephew that is a Tech at Toyota asking him about the 75w for the T-case and he says Toyota uses the same as the diffs.
Condition was not as black as the rear diff but it did seem like it had a lower viscosity.
Rear diff oil was pretty worn I would say.
About 41000 miles.

Is that a new plate design? All the Washington choices are so damn lame. Texas had like an infinite amount of awesome license plate choices.

Yeah, WA has a ton of new ones... I've never seen the steelhead one on any vehicle... and well, I like to fish... so what the hell, I went for it. Fun to be different. Check out the DOL website..
