What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

[like] several posts since no like button[/like]

My son and I changed the front and rear differential oil, rear was in sorry shape glad I changed it. Installed my Transmission Cooler and scangauge II an am paranoid now something may be wrong. I did the best I can and have checked connections, but doesn't mean it wont be having problems(always liked this..). I will do way better once I get a couple hundred miles in and no change in fluid levels and such...

@jayrolla I found adding the panhard drop as well as an adjustable bar made a huge difference from just the bar alone

This.

Not fun. My center bushing looked just like yours if not worse when I changed it. It just about fell out.

Had a Fun Weekend at Home

Took a break from the exhaust, axles, cv boots, differentials, lca's etc and finally did a few fun things this weekend. Stuff I've been wanting to do but hasn't been high on the priority list.

• Finished sound deadening the front doors
• Replaced my broken cup holder in the rear
• Installed a Grab Handle on the drivers side
• Installed two new amber OPTX Led lights in my front cup holders. Love them!

I'm not doing the drop. It causes more body roll that I don't want. Lifting the passenger side I may try in future but not needed really since my rig is driving best it ever has.

Still in clean up mode. When I bought it, the rims were a little... salty. Chipped, sanded and plastidipped them in Gunmetal Grey, which looks like primer to me. It's just a band-aid until I get some actual paint on them, but they turned out alright for now.



Also plastidipped the door handles, license plate surround and painted the roof rack rails and spoiler. Next up is getting the flares back in shape with some plastic/vinyl dye then correcting the paint with a good clay bar and wax job.

Just had the same.issue with my wheels. Painted them charcoal and it looks like dark primer. I bought some Graphite to go over them. Hopefully it'll look better.

Nothing... I'm 5H north of home all week...

In the hotel bar... it sucks.

Barmaid is hot though! :focus:

Replaced both of my license plate bulbs and removed the Toyota badge from the rear hatch

Bought this cargo rack at Homedepot friday for $15.49 on clearance! Cut it up and used one half to build my hatch ladder! Just waiting on the 3rd coat of bedliner to dry so i can mount it.
Tomorrow after work going to pick up some angle iron to use with the rest of the rack parts to build a motorcycle carrier for the back of my 4runner!

Love that idea man

It's still above E! Mine would still have about a 1/4 tank left...

Installed the wiring for my E locker and a breather up through the inside of the fender.

Then went out and tested the wiring / operation of the E locker. :lookout:
