Wired up some auxiliary reverse lights. Can't wait to try them out tonight.

There are some convenient holes in the sides of the hitch that worked perfectly for mounting. Nice and stealth... Hoping still enough light output from there.

Angle them out a little bit and youll see more to the sides to help you backing. The rear glass isnt very helpful for backing up.
 
I changed my radiator to prevent having the milkshake. It was pretty easy besides when I went full retard and spent 10 minutes trying to unscrew a welded nut from the wrong side. I also installed a powered, slim Rockford Fosgate subwoofer under the driver's seat. I love feeling the bass through the seat.
 
Finally made some more headway on the 4Runner. It is now King and Camburg equipped! Also discovered one of my sway bar mounts had come off so fixed that. Needs to be raised some in the front and then headed to get an alignment.

Finally put the external transmission cooler on. Simpler than I thought and I should have never put it off. At 240K, I'm getting things done that I think she needs for another 100K or ownership by me!

This spring.... valve cover gaskets and timing belt/water pump.

Tried to install a transmission valve body kit and messed it up... here's to hoping I can fix whatever I did wrong and get it back on the road!

Update: It's fixed! I always thought transmissions were made with magic and pixie dust. Now that I have worked on the innards of one, they are most definitely made of magic and pixie dust.

that is pure porn! do you know your rear shock measurements by any chance? collapsed and extended
 
Finished prepping my frame and underbody for when I coat it later this week. Got some great products for it and I'm waiting for a new one to hit the store shelves. I've got some 3m rust converter and 3m rubberized undercoating for the underbody and for the frame I've got some Chassis Saver. Yesterday I got the latest Muscle Car magazine and they had some new products listed in the back. The one that interested me is made by 3m and it's like their rubberized undercoating but it has an attachment that shoots the spray 360* and fits into holes in the frame to cover the inside. I can't wait to try it out. Also took out the alternator and factory wiring for the big 3 upgrade and did an oil change, I decided to change the oil brand to valvoline max life synthetic blend inside of cheap Dino oil since I want to keep my 99 for a long time which is why I've put so much work and attention into it. Especially since in a couple years I want to SAS this b*tch.
 
New rear lift (OME 861s/Tokico shocks /adjustable panhard and SS rear body mounts) & custom CBI rear plate bumper with dual swing outs (write-up to come). Just had to park by this stock 3rd gen! Couldn't resist posting...
