What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Replaced the front floor mats with some Weathertechs. Overall they fit pretty well except near the sill there is some separation. Pretty happy with them.

That's a good choice for the liner, and hopefully it'll settle in place. Here is how mine fit from the outset, no gaps:

Got the winch in the mail tonight. They gave me the synthetic rope when I only paid for steel, although I'm not complaining!

aesthetically looks good and easy to get to if it goes bad

Exercised my multimode 4x4 today. I was able to get it to engage easily this time. Still need to r&r tc and diff fluids. Also saw a whale spouting out in the distance. Very good day! Don't know why my pic is upside down though. Lol

Looks good man! Yea I’ve already noticed that they’re starting to settle in place. Probably didn’t help it was below freezing and they’re a little stiff still. Still beats the ratty 17 year old originals lol

Finally got this set up and took a nice nap in it

Sweet! good job taking a picture while they're brand new, they're never the same after you get em dirty. Don't forget the driver's side hook, my brand new weathertechs came with a hook to attach it to the factory carpet from what I remember. Your picture looks like it is missing.

Nice! I looove the weathertechs. Great choice. They should for sure settle in. Mine took a little while too.
I have the two fronts, the single rear floor strip, and the big cargo mat too. Costly, but well worth the investment to keep a clean interior floor. Good buy. Enjoy!

------------------------------------

To keep on topic; today for my 4Runner I hooked up a code reader to find out what code was thrown when all three lights came on last night (CEL, TRAC, VSC). Gave me P1135.
Both new sensors ordered and should arrive to be installed soon.

 

[thecole1098]

Agreed! The weathertechs have already proven themselves to be more than beneficial after mudding several times.

I got an alignment done and a fresh oil change

 

[rdanford]

Switched seat bottoms...driver to passenger/passenger to driver...what a difference!

I did that too...felt brand new and the worn out edge is almost hidden by the center console.

 

[Longhorn425]

i tried to install crossovers for tweeters only to be defeated by the lack of space from the door panel.

back to the drawing board.

Swapped out both front door latch/actuator assemblies for some junkyard ones. Wow its amazing how effortlessly my doors close now!

did you happen to notice if the locking/unlocking mechanism was still there? my drivers door will not unlock all of the other doors (my passenger door will...)

The units I removed from my rig did have those although the new did not as it came from a 99. On the backside of the latch assembly there was 3 wires going to a contact looking sensor and the wires appeared to almost be glued to the plastic body. This contact is what allows you to unlock all the other doors by turning either front door lock cylinders twice.

I was not very sad to delete this feature as I have remote entry anyway so its not a big deal. Also doing that seemed to eliminate the annoying double unlock cycle I would get if I had my key in the ignition and closed my drivers door. The only downside to getting rid of this contact for me is that the doors will no longer automatically unlock themselves if you were to lock a door while it was open.

Other than that, my door actuators function perfectly just as you would expect them to.

Installed the HU and Bezel

Nothing to the truck. But I just purchased a DOMETIC CFX 65DZ fridge. Just when you think your done!!! Pretty excited. My friend invited me to a big trip in June to Virginia for 3 nights camping. Looking forward.
