Freebie I signed up for 'cause why not so long ago I'd completely forgot about it.

I saw a yota with a men's and ladies's sign on either door last summer. That was amusing. I'd have to steal a men's room sign for the passenger door.

It's still on and kicking a$$! I've loaded it up numerous times for camping/wheeling trips, tossed the mesh net over it with some bungies, and she's performed great. A slight whistle over 40mph when the sun roof is open but can't hear it when closed.
I'm about to take it off for the first time since burning man to install my snowboard rack (I wish I could figure out a way to easily secure boards to it).
Dont regret the purchase one bit.
Note: First rack I really have experience with.

I drove it work today for the 8th day in a row! With the bad weather & low gas prices ($1.85) I'm putting some miles on it. It's driving like a champ too with the new driveshaft.
I also got my original split 3's back from being media blasted. Gonna prime & paint them this weekend if I have time.

About a week ago I put on a full set of 4 1.25" Spidertrax spacers on my GX470 wheels. HUGE difference in stance. I like the style of the GX470 wheels, but the offset is awful. These did the job nicely.

That looks really good [MENTION=105650]Firstborn10[/MENTION]!
Not today, but yesterday I installed my new to me OEM fog lights. I installed them using a new turn signal switch and put Hella Optilux yellow bulbs in. I love the way they look and the bulbs are super yellow which is exactly what I wanted. Now I'm waiting for a foggy day haha

Yesturday i mounted my CBI ditch light brackets, super easy. However the install instructions have you trim off more of the plastic cowel than is really needed. So i will be looking for another plastic cowel. Today i hope to wire up my cree led spot lights.
Thanks! I just bought my 1st 4runner and I love camping... I just ordered that rack based on the good reviews and your review of it on an actual 3rd gen 4runner, can't wait to get it! :banana:

Well playing catch up as I have been overlooking this these. Purchased 97 manual on 12/24/14, 12/26/14 brought new CV axles and full fluid change on all systems. 12/30/14 added Sylvania silver star ultra to help brighten up the factory lights. 1/4/15 cut out the area where the factory nonworking fog lights were and mounted a 30" zero dark curved lightbar. Today, it rained all day so I didn't have to go to work, I decided to go junkyard hunting. Found a set off 99' headlights for $50 and a set of factory skids as the PO removed all of them. New headlights installed tonight, skids need to be cleaned up and painted before installing them.

What did you do to your 3rd gen today?
...Diff Armor?... Or rust repair maybe, but seems like an odd spot to rust out

See if anyone can guess what's going on here......
E locker conversion? Screen door repair? That is a lot of hose you have back there for that compressor.

You are going to use that stepladder to climb on top of the fridge.
You will then jump off of the fridge and through your now hollow axle and land in the tub of oil.
To celebrate the occasion you will grab a scooter from the corner and do a victory lap around the garage which will not end well when you crash into the open drawer on your tool chest.
You will fly into a rage and grab the angle grinder and start grinding everything in sight.
Your rage has consumed you. You will attempt to grind the air tank in the corner which will then rupture the tank sending you flying out into the yard. During the blast your clothes will be destroyed.
You will now be laying in the yard, delirious, partially naked and covered in gear oil - which smells really bad.
Your neighbors will call the cops.
Your life in ruined.
Amiright?
