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

After getting my drone caught in a tree out at Kitchen Creek, and then making several trips back before finally recovering it,
I went out again last Monday and flew the drone some more so I could finish getting the video footage I wanted. I haven't
had a chance to edit it yet, but in the meantime here are a few pics of Megaweapon and the Kitchen Creek area:

And slightly off-topic, but I did this was yesterday -- our neighbors found this in their yard and asked me to
capture it for relocation:

I didn't really do a step by step build. But i basically combined a lot of good info form the thread on here about LED Grill lights. Bought everything off Amazon for like $50 bucks.
 
Gotta a poor man's lift

Removed the rear flaps and trimmed the lower section off the rear. Small mod, but big visual improvement. Haven't pulled off the front and evaluated them yet.

Went camping with some friends in Olympic National Park. Detoured to Ocean Shores for breakfast and some beach driving. October has been gorgeous in the PNW this year.

same-size spare

Finally replaced the stock spare. Was that you, [MENTION=215689]SilverTEP[/MENTION] that had a related problem? I was out in Nevada recently, thinking about your story.

Roof rails

Got the rails back from powder coating. It’s a perfect match. Also installed LFD crossbars.

Looks like ya had a great time. If it wasn't for kids sports today we would have hit the trails as well. Not too often we get some mud down here. What trails did ya hit?

4runner is lookin great

Entered by Pio Pico, went up and down the radio tower hill (dang cold and windy), then across that spur trail that runs along the top of the ridge going east from Doghouse Junction. Dropped down the east side of the truck trail by the rod and gun club and ended with some kickass carne asada tacos at the general store in Dulzura.

Not a soul up there until we got to the very end of the truck trail. Probably a good thing--coming up from Pio Pico there was maybe 20ft visibility looking ahead and 5ft visibility over the dropoff. Would have been very sketchy to negotiate a pass.

It's rare that I come back with some mud splatter instead of 1/4" of dust coating every surface.
 
Solid effort, looks nice! A drawer, a subwoofer, AND a bottle opener? WIN!

Nice work!

The 500lb slides might be a bit overkill, but I would rather over than under. I did 100lb slides on mine and it has been fine. The lower rating was dictated by cost.

Edit: Looks like I quoted the wrong person.
