Nice! I love the super clean engine bay.
Went to Ocotillo Wells yesterday. What a blast!

Strapped some gear to my Orange Box rear window rack.
Really like this setup, keeps alot of gear organized in an easy to get to place.

yea I am really liking it so far, I like that its out of the way and being on the driver side it doesnt block your vision at all, I can see the paper towel roll some in my rear view thats about it.
If you were to put one on the passenger side, it would block some of your vision, but its still tempting.
If I were to be picky, it doesnt line up with the shape of the window perfectly.
The bottom is fine, its inline with the mounting points, but it would be better if it had one more row of slots at the top, there is plenty of room and it would line up with the window better.

I’m already at 4*. Took they spacers off and plenty of clearance all around.

Swapped out the TRD skidplate bolts for studs, and nuts. Was such a pain in the ass to line up the skidplate to bolt it back in, so much easier with studs. Also cut out the radiator shroud to expose the radiator cap. Much more convenient to get to the radiator cap to check levels

I had a chance to go back out to the desert late Thursday afternoon for an overnight trip. Here are a few pics -- you can see more in my "Adventures of Megaweapon" thread:

It was 4runner day for me.
Started the day by trying to fix the clunk in the front suspension, so I figure while I have the vehicle on stands, to raise it back to 3 inches. I had issues with the front end sagging due to the added weight of the bumper and winch. After that, I decided to fix my alignment issues that have been plaguing the 4runner for a while, so I took it in for an alignment. The alignment fixed my steering pulling issues, but I still had the front end clunk, so out of sheer fustration, I took all my fustration out on the 4runner by taking it to a DIY car wash and detailing it by hand. At least it will look good, drive okay for commuting, and tire myself out. I also got those poser yellow plastic things for the d-shackles, so it won't destroy the powdercoat on my bumper. I also redid all my electrical wiring (for the lights and ARB compressor) and modified a RCI filler plate to work with the SSO slimline bumper and RCI skid plates (so now I have full radiator protection)........yeah, a long day.
All and All not a terrible way of spending the day. Fixing all the stuff that I broke. I still cant take it offroading, but at least its driveable for commuting. Next thing on my too do list is to fiberglass the exposed body welds near the body mounts in the front fender area, I"m just OCD like that (I can't stand it after the BMC, I rather patch that area up). Baby steps....
