Finally got around to installing my lift that's been sitting for 2 years, also tackled my roof rack as well. Just need to get some new 33's under it now. Also applied some optimum gloss coat to protect the paint another few years.

This was yesterday when I got home. The power was out, and there was pizza from lunch that was cold. I tried putting it on the engine thinking it might heat the pizza up some. The engine was off, but I had just gotten home. It didn't help much.
This happened today. My 2020 4Runner hit 20,000 miles. I pulled over and took a pic of it. This is about 1/4 of my old Jeep's life. Let's see how long the Toyota lasts!
This is a 2020+ navigation cover. I found it on ebay. The only colors I could find were carbon fiber and red. I just wanted something to cover the silver of the navigation unit. Especially the part that faces upwards. The silver liked to reflect the sun. This new one still reflects some, but it's not nearly as bad. I might get it vinyl wrapped or something in something matte that won't reflect so much. It fits nicely. I have no complaints about it. I actually put this on a few weeks ago, but I took a pic of it today.

Always out of stock so made my own dual color dome light.
Used these from SuperBrightLEDs:
G4-CWR9-DAC: Cool White and Red $6.95
UCOB-FES30: Festoon Base $0.18
Desoldered the G4 connectors and wired it together. Interestingly the polarity to these bulbs doesn't matter, which is why the white wires don't cross. Also, the colors are in sync, managed to get them out of sync for the photo.

Put the pizza on plate, and towel under the plate, then set on dash.. Solar oven.

What size lift did you go with? Love the stance. Thanks!

Finished the facelift and added some raptor lights.
When I picked mine up from the dealer this past weekend they were at 55! Seems like a fairly easy thing to check to me, guess not…

When we bought ours in Feb 2021, the tires were at 50(?) psi!!! Not sure why they didn’t bring them down to door jamb psi during the delivery detail. It drove like it was on heroin on the freeways until I discovered the problem. From what I read (and I could be very wrong), they do this to keep the tires from flat spotting on the lot.

Makes sense why they do that at the lot.
I notice my stock grapplers have a bit of a wobble after being parked overnight when it's cold out until they warm up after a few minutes of driving.
I blame my Dealer, it was the worst new vehicle pickup experience I’ve ever had. I think they are taking advantage of the limited inventory / fact that they think we need them more than they need us.

Installed my bowline brackets, my Gobi elevation crossbars and my Thule Hullavator. Still working out kinks with Hullavator and round bars.

How are you attaching your Hullavator to your Elevation bars? Stock Thule hardware? I picked up a Hullavator off FB Marketplace but didn't realize it was the older model (897XT) and not the new one 898.
Finding a way to connect them to my Gobi rack has been a nightmare - the 897XT only fits square Thule bars and the longest bars are 2-3 inches too short to work on the Gobi.
Very curious on how you're doing this on your Elevation bars! I assumed the Elevation bracket would get in the way.

Good question. It is still a work in progress. The elevation brackets itself do not cause any interference however the Hullavator does not like being attached to round bars. They are technically supported but my issue is that when the arms are extended then it becomes very easy to rotate the Hullavator on the crossbar as the arms overpower the clamps. I have a fix in the works which involves drilling the bar where the 2 M6 bolts would attach to a square or aero bar, installing a rivnut in each hole and using this as secondary mount which should prevent the Hullavator bases from rotating on the bar. I am running 60" crossbars. I tried 56.5" but that is too short and you can hit the rear fender flare. 58" might also work but you are getting close at that point.

Well, the original purpose was for limb risers on the 5gen 4Runner but I repurposed them for Bowline brackets. They work well and I also setup a secondary attachment point just to be safe.

285/70r17 Maxxis Razr ATs. Unfortunately it's raining here today, so only got tire shop pics. So far so good, though. Ride a little softer than my C-Load KO2s (expected) and rub a little less since I removed the wheel spacers. Acceleration seems the same as I was hoping since these are only 43lbs a piece. Tiny bit louder, but my KO2s were silent, so not surprised there either.
