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

I washed it :)

Other than 5100s and some JBA UCAs, it’s still stock. I told myself I wouldn’t spend much money on it until I paid it off. Well, I paid it off 3 months ago so now the fun begins.

She still looks good.
 
Elka Suspension is in!

Front struts and ECGS bushing has been installed.

Have to admit, the ride quality of these struts is shocking...I wasn't expecting it to ride this well on the highway and washboard dirt roads.

Just realized I made a pun there.
 
Southern Style OffRoad bumper

Finally found time to install my new SSO bumper and OpenRoad Winch.

Wheels

Paid it off, then powdercoated and installed ORP wheels on my (mostly) stock SR5 to celebrate. Looks much better.

Next is to find a take-off 21+ PRO Fox suspension and Westcott lift.

Picked up my suspension from Overland Bound Sales and Services today. Going to have a fun weekend of wrenching! Went with the Stage 3 kit with the heavy springs since I've added so much weight to it.

Nice! Im still debating on what set up to go with. Current set up is the trd pro FJ 6112 up front with 600 lbs springs , 5160 rear. Need to replace a rear shock that is leaking.

Debating between the following rear shocks

Bilstein 5100 $178 for the pair

dobinsons ims $590....
will eventually replace front with dobinsons and probably new springs all around if/when needed

King Remote Reservoir Rear Shock Pair for 03+ 4Runner and 07-14 FJ Cruiser (25001-125A-EXT-or-125-EXT) $760. (not sure of set up front if this route)
 
On Sunday a friend of mine when up a trail near the North Fork of the Snoqualmie River, in her Jeep, and she managed to slide off the trail and get stuck. She found someone to give her a ride out, but had to abandon the Jeep for a few days until I could get out there and pull it out. The Jeep wasn't stuck bad, but it did require winching it off a tree and back on to the trail.

I didn't think to take photos until after it was unstuck.

I let them do all the digging :laugh:

I'll be getting the 4runner back from my Wife.
Her pickup has been in the body shop for 2 weeks, so she's been driving the 4runner.
I've been driving my old pickup.
