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

Like me he probably had a gangster lean.

Mine also had issues with touching my driverside hubs. So I took mine off

Better off-road, had lean also it was hitting TRD skid even after kdss mod

Any small privately owned body shop with a welder ought to be able to do it.

I too was getting hung up on the BMC, trying to find a shop that specializes in Toyotas. Asked the shop that did my lift and was turned down by them.

Rereading this article:
Body Mount Chop 5th Gen 4Runner (34" Tires), Body Mount Chop & Trim

It finally dawned on me that any body shop ought to be able to perform a BMC. I took my 4Runner over to my local auto body shop and they had no issues doing it. The owner looked up youtube videos on it.

I paid $210 for the BMC which included chopping, grinding, and welding on a piece of sheet metal from his stock. Plus spraying it with bedliner.

He also installed my SPC UCA's for another $165.

Not today, but mounted up the prinsu full rack this weekend. Was able to knock out solo with the help of some towels to protect the paint

Tried to get airbags and a trailer brake controller installed. Airbags ordered weeks ago didn’t arrive and the “tech” that installed my controller wasn’t worried if I could reach the lever in an emergency. [emoji2959][emoji2359]

The hits [emoji3037] just keep on coming. You can’t make this stuff up. I’m loosing my faith in humans.

Bought a Jackery 300 to power my Alpicool Fridge when the car is off (stupid 12v not always hot) in lieu of running a new wire and has many other uses.

Ran it all night - only used 65% of the battery maintaining 40°F on eco mode and on the low voltage setting [emoji41]. It’s a keeper.

Going to MOAB for 4 days tomorrow. [emoji3]

Installed most of my new RCI skids last night. I’ll post more detailed thoughts in my build thread, but I’m very pleased so far. That transfer skid is a MF'er! Fuel skid to come this weekend.

How is the sound with you driving and the sunroof open? Also, have you tried the combo of sunroof open with the rear hatch window open? Any crazy howling or wind noise?
 
Have not tried either due to weather, but will let you know once I do. I ended up removing the beam immediately over the sunroof to add to rear of rack for better support with a couple containers I am adding. Once I add a lightbar and accessories on the roof (plano gun cases and maxtrax) there will be some noise
 
My 2020 finally has a CD player! It might not be the cleanest or most audiophile solution, but I'll be damned if I didn't enjoy it! I got a Discman knockoff and an FM transmitter from Amazon. Both have rechargeable batteries, so I plugged both USB cables into this 12V car outlet to two port USB adapter (more expensive metal casing unit) which I plugged into the outlet under the arm rest, fed the cables into the little cable cutout, and got to driving and rocking out! I'm super happy with this setup! There was no skipping or damage to the CD, but I think I'm going to have to play with the FM transmitter and find the best unused station in my area to use it on.

 
Yesterday, I brought home the sr5 with the new Westcott Designs collar lift, FN six shooter wheels and Toyo 285 70r17 AT3 tires.

Pics coming. Looks fabulous.

I love this idea, I'm missing having a CD player after installing my Halo9, great idea!
