Finally got my interior all back together today with all of my LEDs in. Reconnected power to my rear glass too. Power down works but up doesn't from the switch. I have power out of the switch though for up. I can put it up with the key from the back though so I'm not too mad. Any ideas on where to check next?

Yep, my buddy had one laying around and the HPS Cool Ram's filter was crazy long and would not have allowed me to install my ABR compressor.
My friend had the filter and a few adapter hoses sitting around so in it went.
Seems to run fine.

I took my 4Runner out for an undercarriage wash today.
Now home to get the wires ready to do the traction control disable mod.

Bought new rims off of a guy from Craigslist and hopefully ordering new 285/75/16 Kenda Klever M/Ts with Light Racing UCAs.

Not as often as I would like to be. Going for a week on the 24th. I make it down once or twice a year

Added a switch for the winch power interrupt, am out of actual spots so put a third one just above the climate control. Got most of the winch cables routed, just need to finish up. The front quick connect I was able to make a bracket for so it peeks out from the bumper valance, the rear I'm thinking I'll use a magnet to hold on the inner side of the rear bumper where it's a sort of shelf, and pull it out as needed. All for a portable winch...might build a set of quick connect jumper cables too, because can.
pardon the construction mess...

Level 8 MK6
Got the Level8's mounted up that I bought from [MENTION=132328]99Runnr[/MENTION]. Ordered TRD center caps on Amazon Prime.
Clayed the whole car last weekend, and started paint correction this weekend, and man that's a lot of work. Hopefully finish it next weekend.
Waiting till I buy a road bike until I tear into my timing belt/water pump, in case I have to bike to work.
Also selling my old Pro Comps cheap if anyone's interested:

I was checking under the car to torque some bolts down to spec and noticed my passenger RCAM was pancaked up. I never noticed it before, but I'm guessing it happened when I came down hard on a rock last year! The lower control arm looks fine and doesn't seem to be affected by the mount. Some pictures!
Truck looks great. Enjoy it while it lasts, I've had 3 black car's, such a hard time keeping them mint haha. Considering how bad some of the clear coat looks on 3rd gen's now, your paint cleaned up very very well.
Drove mine a couple hundred miles this weekend and genuinely don't want to change anything about it finally. Stereo makes your ears bleed, super comfy, pulled over 21 MPG, new wheels and rebuilt rear end finally made freeway trips smooth and peaceful.

I was replacing my dash lights way back and I accidentally disabled the traction control somehow. Never figured out how it happened.I took my 4Runner out for an undercarriage wash today.
Now home to get the wires ready to do the traction control disable mod.
Best accidental mod ever.

I will keep it on a switch for the bad weather but will enjoy turning it off for when I am in the sand/dirt and want the full power.

Replaced my drivers seat bolt down. The PO had done a really nice job
This is awesome. I cut out a slot below the bolt hole so I could squeeze a wrench in there to attach a bolt and fender washer behind whatever was left of the hole. Nice work! Wish I could do something like that.

Yes I know my welding leaves a little something to be desired. I'm just learning how and I didn't have the correct wire or any gas for welding sheet metal.
As long as it is strong enough to hold, you'll be fine. Gutta start somewhere right? Where did you get the replacement? Junkyard?
Bought this carcass for $500 so I could steal the E locker axle and matching front diff. It's been a source of all sorts of handy items from fasteners and body clips, to front lower control arms, to stuff like the seat bracket. Has a full working sunroof I might try to re-use / install someday

toyota 202 doesnt have clear. thats why black is such a hard color to work with. its going to take a while to level 202 so it depends on how dedicated u r. not sure if youre going to go at it with a buffer but make sure you level the paint in stages or else youll get super swirls in the sunlight! eeeek.
you can also hide the swirls with mud if you want.

Did a drain/fill on Power Steering, Front/Rear Diffs, and Transfer case.
Check out the drain plugs on those Diffs:
Front:
Rear:
Looks like the PO did not service these items, which isn't surprising judging by the condition of a few other components. She's in better hands now.
What do you all think of that there sludginess? Cause for concern?
