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

Today I got the wheels for the 4runner I have been piecing together in my head for years. Don't have the truck yet (lol, wife thinks I'm losing it, she could be right... :shrug ) but like the signature says...

Love the old school look of the f5s. Opted for the 8.5 with black lugs.

Shout out to the guys at SCS, Vuth was really helpful and answered all my questions and shipped everything way faster than I was expecting. Great customer service!

I ordered King coilovers, king rear shocks, and camburg ball joint UCA before I bought a 4runner (but I picked one up two weeks ago!). You aren't alone.
 
Driving from MT to DC

Driving ~2200 miles from MT to DC. Got caught up on another winter storm in ND. KO2s don't like driving on the highway when it's below 30. Rear was skating/sliding on the cold spots...scary stuff. Made it to Wis Dells, 900 miles to go! hope the weather holds.
 
Nice looking set up. Seems like it would block visibility in rear view mirror.


Matching spare wheel installed

Just installed my Victory 4X4 Molle Panel. It took 10 minutes with zero skills.

It's really well designed, looks awesome, and feels very solid. Next week the Victory Blitz sliders and crossbars go on!
 
Took her out to stretch her legs a bit, the Eiback lift is riding great!
Also finished up my sleeping platform.
Love some of the cool setups with drawers, but didnt want to leave all that in there all the time. Takes up too much space for daily use.
I wanted something as simple as possible, that was easy to take in and out.
The PVC pipe legs are inserted into holes in the 2x4 frame, and are easy to remove, making it less bulky to store when not in the 4Runner.

On Wednesday I had 4wp mount up some fox 2.5 coilovers and 2.0 factory rear shocks as well as 17x8.5 xd wheels. Tonight we Baja'd through some 3ft whoops at 30mph and it was awesome.
 
TRD pro skid plate from the 40% off sale, this morning I taped off the lettering and used satin black rustoleum on the skid plate to keep with the black theme. I'll probably mount it later on this weekend or tomorrow

The blue on the TRD looks kinda cool haha
 
That’s a nice one. Would be cool if you had the ability to toggle between just having the Amber/White/Both lights on. If you could, this would kinda give you that Raptor like look as well.
 
Cleaned the underside of the 4Runner
