Youre an amazing artist! good shit!
 
Installed white LEDs into the dash column. Super happy there were no hot spots. I wanted to do blue, but honestly I am digging the clean white!

Unfortunately, it is temporary decommissioned at the moment. I was parking on the street and the left driver side axle came off just as I was backing in.
 
Swapped in some BMW 12-way adjustable seats. What a PITA but definitely satisfying.

installed my fogs today and looked around to see what its gonna take to do a block heater ( moving to Alaska)

Well, on your way up, after stopping for a soak at Liard, if you need a garage to wrench in let me know. I'm in Whitehorse so only 950km from the Elephant Cage or 1100 from Anchorage.

Just bring me some Broken Truck (the beer, not the Toyota!) or Notorious Triple and we'll be set. :)

but seriously, thanks for the offer
 
New battery! I first went to Home Depot to get the Exide Extreme, but decided against it as soon as I saw the lack of water filler caps. So I went to Wally World and got the Ever Start MAXX.

Shipped today! :)
 
i just bought my 4runner and it already had new control arms and tie rods as well as ball joints. i noticed it had a pull while driving so i had it aligned today. which i heard is kind of difficult because of the modifications made to it, like the 2 inch lift and larger size tires.
 
Took on the P0420 by the horns today. New O2 and A/F sensors and cats. I kept the original rear cat since it only looked like it was plugged up by the grenaded front cat. The honeycomb material in the rear cat look in tact, so I might try to clean it and sell it, or keep it as a backup.

No codes yet, but I'll have to confirm that it's gone after 200 miles or so. Truck is also louder and the distinct 5VZ-FE exhaust rumble has returned. Anyone dealing with this issue should consider doing this if a 3rd Gen has more than 200K miles. There likely won't be any other fix if you're certain that there are no exhaust leaks or the sensors are new. You can see the original cats below with 272,000 miles on them. I bought my truck in January with 268K on the odometer and can't believe I let myself drive 4K miles with the cats in such bad condition.

All that gray stuff from the floor was from the front catalytic converter.
