What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Those are the AT3's right? I almost got a set of those. Ended up going with the ST Maxx, but might get the AT3's next time. Looks great man, can't wait to see them on the truck!

Yup, they're AT3's. Been sitting for a week. The truck still isn't registered so I'm in no rush to put them on. I'd rather not ruin them with all the crap that ends up on my shop floor every time I touch it haha.
 
Started on a budget projector retrofit. Took apart/baked the driver side headlight last night and threaded the projector on this morning, planned to install the lens-less headlight to verify aim/rotation after the family Easter get-together but it began to drizzle when I got home.
 
Got pissed off trying to fix my clock (which I managed to create a wonderful short). Shaky hands make for soldering trouble. So I threw it into my garage hopefully to never be seen again and mounted a monitor for a reverse camera in its place. Still can access the hazard lights button.

Not today, but this weekend i nought my first 4runner! It's a 97 sr5 4wd with 199,799 miles on it.

After 1.5 hours of owning it most of the interior was gutted out of it and spent much of this weekend cleaning/ painting the interior. (This was my neighbor's farm truck so it had about a half a bail of hay through it, corn, mud and cow poop).
 
Got back from our Easter celebration, woke up to more snow than we'd had all winter on Easter Sunday. Up till this point it'd be in the 60s and 70s for two months in Wichita.
Poor old Brando's never gonna get his tranny fluid changed.

Did the Tundra Brake Upgrade and pulled/re-booted my axles over the weekend. Now I have to upgrade my suspension because when I hit the brakes I get almost full compression up front. No more warped rotors going downhill, though!

The guides listed in the FAQ were incredibly helpful.
 
Ordered a 4" deckplate, new air filter, an OEM fuel filter, and a Borla 40665 Turbo XL muffler :smokin:

how do you like the Borla?

I have the 40664 (2.25 pipe) and I have drone from 1600-2000 rpm... it reverbrates through the cabin.

has it become more quiet over time?

I have the same Borla (40665) and it does not drone at ALL. I absolutely love it. I've sound deadened my whole interior, but on the freeway I can barely hear the exhaust. Driving around town you can hear it, but it's not loud by any means.
 
Drove it 130 miles offroad across the mojave desert

I like this truck
