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

Bought one. That's what I did.

Well. Strictly technically speaking the wife did. But I'm the one that spent several weeks scouring the deep dark corners of the web to find one.
*waves* Hi erryone.
 
There is also the 275. Best (or worst) of both worlds, depending on whether or not they rub!

Good Luck!


BFG All Terrain K/O 2 come in 275/55R20, D rated load (also in the middle, LOL)

Min rim width is 7.5” but Discount Tire will usually install 0.5” outside manufacturer specs.

Thanks for the feedback on tires.

I put my order in with RCI for a roof rack and sliders today. My to-do mod list is stacking up for August/September. Can't wait.
 
-Installed an Extreme LED Lightbars 38" Amber/white bar
-Oil Change/Cabin Air Filter Change

Ok, not today but a few day’s ago……

Finally found the time to install my [MENTION=602811]ctnewman[/MENTION] rear tires carrier!
It is everything ctnewman, stated it would be and then some. The install went without a hitch @ I made my own hitch mount spare tire carrier

Not my 4Runner but putting Lamin-X fog light overlays on my wife's RAV4. Did them a while back on the 4Runner and love them!

Unfortunately, the RAV version did not fit as advertised!

Looks great Saker. Did you change what ctnewman stated; “So what would I change? A couple things:

1) Less offset. I think I could have moved the wheel about 3" to the left. I think it would just look a bit better aesthetically.

2) shorten the receiver a bit. This was just me being lazy. It will hurt departure angle.

3) make the bottom tube about 2" longer so I could have put my plate higher. It was either going to hang off the end of the tube or hang below. It's on a sturdy bracket but we will see if it snags on stuff on the trail. It doesn't hang lower than the hitch, though.”

So, this was all [MENTION=602811]ctnewman[/MENTION] 's baby , he asked me for some input and did a couple of things I suggested.
1) ctnewman did that in the revised run from his prototype.
2) ctnewman did that in the revised run from his prototype.
3) ctnewman raised the lic bracket in the revised run from his prototype.
 
REALLY, REALLY smoky from forest fires. Gonna have to change air filters as soon as it clears. Supposed to get some rain:party::party:
 
friday: thule wingbar evo 60" + 450r rapid crossroad. so far impressed, zero wind noise, even up to 100mph driving with the sunroof open, tilted and closed

transporting gear like bikes / wood just became so much easier
 
Picked up some HardKorr lights for the canopy at camp. Just fitted them for use for all the other times. Magnetic mount to the molle panels. Control switch dimms and switches between orange and white.
