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

[Blue 4ever Runner]

Took the 4Runner on the first "long" trip. About 200 miles round trip and got 21.3 MPG according to the vehicle meter. It feels real good on the highway at speed. Cruise set at 65 to 70 most of the way, hit quite a bit of bumper to bumper traffic on the way home though. I'm really enjoying this truck.

5100s in the front and Dobinsons springs front and back. I don't know exactly how much lift I ended up with. It is a pretty significant difference from stock, though. I did a quick wheel/tire test fit today. Crazy rubbing on the back side of the fender well. I couldn't even get it turned far enough to see if it hit the body mount. I'll try it without the spacer later to see what that looks like. Really don't want to fork out the cash for UCAs yet but I have the feeling it won't be optional. Looks great though FWIW haha

so with these wheels....what about brake cooling?

May come down to buying wheels with the correct back spacing or doing a BMC It's a shame, those trail wheels look really good. Just not the best for wider tires and JBA arms are prone to rubbing. They have more rubbing issues than any other arm on the market.

Different backspacing would put the tires in the same spot without spacers.
I I'll do the BMC if that's what it takes, it just without knowing the alignment numbers I'd rather start there first.

Not quite. 17x8 with 4.5" BS and 0 offset is generally the magic number. You're at probably 3.5" BS now, maybe less. In this picture I'm running 1.5" lift with 295s and no rubbing, no BMC

Yesterday drove 13hrs back to Ohio from Oklahoma. If my dog and most of my guns weren't back in Ohio I might not have come back. Wanenmacher was in Tulsa, so I might have even been able to replace the guns.

Finally got a chance to install grill, Led’s and black overlays.

After seeing several posts and videos of people emptying their oil catch cans... it motivated me to install my own. Extremely easy mod, and something that makes me sleep easier at night if nothing more.

Next mod? Clearly spend some time under the hood with a little soap and water... yeesh. Disgraceful.

What's the purpose of this? More oil capacity for crazy off camber situations?

Acts as a filter so to speak for the air that vents out of the engine and into the intake. That air carries some nasty combination of water and oil which cakes up in your intake and on your valves. I emptied mine after about 1600 miles to show a friend what it does and it was about 1/3 full. Mine is full of mostly water at each 5K mile oil change. Looks like chunky chocolate milk.

Differential swap?

Do you think this means that a locking differential could replace the stock 4Runner Limited AWD rear diff?

Installed my radar detector today. Radenso Pro M using a Mirror Tap. Worked fantastic. FYI. Blue for power and Black/White is ground. Suctions cups for the radar mount would not hold well, so I switched to double sided automotive tape. Worked like a dream. High, tight and solid.

Yes, Install went really easy with the Mirror tap. Took all of about 10 minutes once I determined which wire was which on mirror. The longer flat mirror taps worked the best for mine. So far the Pro M has been really good. It’s super quiet, so I get worried that it’s not working, but it seems to pick up everything with a good distance. Tonight on the way home it picked up a local Sheriff that was driving the same direction, a good 1/2 mile ahead of me with 2 cars in between us. He was running Ka band and flipping it on and off as cars approached. The blind spot filtering is fantastic. Better than any detector I’ve had previously.

Looks really good, how did the cutting and install process go?

The physical bumper install was very straightforward and easy. The most time consuming part was the bumper trimming, mainly because I cut on the long side of their measurements because I wanted a smaller "gap" so it was a lot of trimming and test fitting to get it how I wanted.

Shrockworks make a heck of nice bumper with a very simply design, I am very pleased with my purchase!
