What did you do with your 4runner today?

One more quick thing. What's the best/easiest way to remove rust from your undercarriage? I have this paint already to spray on after but I don't know if I should wire brush it or get some product to spray on it first.

Plastipipping is on hold...I ran out of paint half way through an Home Depot was closed by the time I got there! I will resume tomorrow!
 
Went and got the trailer ready to haul off to call tomorrow. And installed the yellow fog light film:

the fog lights look almost as good as mine. no really it looks good, really liking the headlights. did you buy the headlights or paint them yourself?

Haha thanks! Actually did them myself. It was a pain in the a** though because I didn't want to paint that reflector inside, so I ended up busting a little piece, but ended up all good. One of my favorite mods for sure.

And the wife actually said she likes the fogs! (After complaining that I took the small amount of time to do it rather than helping prep for camp tomorrow... Lol)

Get down to bare metal first, then use self etching primer and an undercoating (I like duplicolor bed coating that comes in a blue can). Keeps ya rust free for a long long time until you scratch it. It's very hard to scratch bed coating
 
Replaced my drivers side CV and on Friday helped my son replace both of his.... Broke a stud on my wheel putting it back on....:ybrick:
 
Dropped the truck off at Ducmonsta's shop (High Tech) to get the wheels and tires mounted and an alignment along w/ another couple odds and ends.

Tires were getting scary bald....

just posting the difference between tint and yellow fogs. looks good both ways i only got the yellow housing because i didnt like the idea of tint.

this really makes me want to do the bhlm or maybe color keyed
 
CDL is partially locked. i limped it home 300 miles yesterday and i tried to back out of my parking spot this morning and wouldnt move. so i had it towed to dealer to figure it out.
 
I missed my 4Runner today... haven't driven it in months due to a leaking front diff seal. I can't get the diff drain bolt out either.

:moping:
 
What's wrong with it?

I put brand new Cardone axles and new diff seals in several months ago and the driver-side leaked instantly... despite being completely meticulous throughout the process. I've since rebuilt the factory axles, bought new seals, and can't get the diff drain bolt out. I might have better luck with the factory axles going back in, but haven't been able to find the ambition to try it again.
