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

Right now I’m working over in Europe, so I’m prepping for My 14 days of isolation When I return.. so far the cbi compressor mount, and Arb Twin compressor. Also will be tackling the job of rear camera relocate. Just haven’t decided if I want to buy a kit or go at it and piece together myself..
 
Just got her Friday and washed her for the first time; my first 4Runner and Toyota.

Finally got around to installing the Diode Dynamics SS3 (great customer service, highly recommend shopping Diode Dynamics) and Opt7 rock lights (bought from 97BlackAckCL).

I was not able to plug and play the SS3. Had the LED 2in1 DRL/Fogs stock, so the wiring was a bit different.

The rock lights are under the fenders? Got any pics of how you mounted them?
 
Yep, you are right. Meant Subaru. Was talking about the Bronco and typing at the same time.

Oh man ... Let me guess you put a deposit for one. Lol all my buddies are in line for one.

Yeah the subbies has some suspension work done. And because he is well skill. He picked really good lines even thru the ones I had issues with.
 
Cut back some branches from a tree that was overhanging my driveway. Why is that worth talking about? Because they were higher than I could reach without a ladder, and too far from my house to run an extension cord for my reciprocating saw. So, I backed the 4Runner up to the branches, rolled down the back window, opened the hatch, plugged the reciprocating saw into the 120v outlet in the hatch area, stood in the cargo area with the top half of my body sticking up through the open hatch window, and sawed the branches with one hand while holding the branches away from the tuck with the other hand. First time using the 120v outlet.

Just tap screws. I’ll keep an eye on how well they hold up. Might go back and bolt them after a few runs depending. They came with regular 2” screws. Ran the wires best I could to hide them under the plastic to get down to the frame. I tucked them as high up and a little back to ensure the wheel could not hit them. I wanted to have better visibility of the tires and suspension pieces at night if required.
Not the best pics.

Without pictures, it didn't happen :)

But that's using your resources...

Went up and over Mosquito Pass from Alma to Leadville, then took Weston Pass back to Fairplay. Then Mt. Lincoln as a standalone.
