So what's the story on this?

I'll take a guess and say that you walked into the rear door?

Lol nope, luckily im short so the hatch clears me, but i was doing the bodywork and had a couple deep dents with no access from inside. I welded some nails in the dents, locked and pulled on the visegrips while tapping around the dents to pull them out. I got to the last dent and pulled a little harder then the visegrips popped off and i punched myself hard as hell in the forehead with the but of the pliers.....
 
The look of fear on my 9 year old son's face was priceless when he saw me coming incthe door with blood squirting out of my forehead, my hands, shirt and pants were covered in blood too!
 
Built new ground cable for my main batt to engine ground, that was the only one I did not upgrade when I did my big 5 or six or however many now :)
Beautiful big 0/1 gauge wire.

Dang! How many seat heaters do you have?



Looks good.



Haha. None! I just like the OEM look. I was going to be all fancy and relabel them... Turns out I suck at that. They're defrosters from various Toyota models.
 
installed my new grille today

Undecided if I want to do the Satoshi grill yet, so for the time being, I painted the grill badge black. I like the look better than the silver so far! Ignore the busted front bumper, 4xInnovations front bumper was ordered a few days ago, now its just a waiting game!

Started my day by putting my new patio set together while the wife ran some errands. Then I snuck the bike out for a few and froze my butt off. Finally made it down to the shop and worked on the 4runner at like 430.

Got my new radio mounted in the dash after my quick test the other day. Swapped my cargo and passenger lights to LED bulbs. Then I got my red LEDs Swapped into the climate controls, shifter, and key ring. Headed back in the morning to finish the LED update and get some other much needed work done.
 
Went for a spin in the mud by the house. Helped both an idiot Altima and a pathfinder who were both stuck lol. Two 2wd tacomas and a 2wd f150 stood back in envy as the 4Runner crawled effortlessly :D hehe

Installed a Walker SS Quietflow 55054 Muffler and tailpipe, painted the passenger side rear control arm mount with POR 15 while I was down there, installed some GE Nighthawk Sport 9003 halogen bulbs for better night driving.
