What did you do with your 4runner today?

[Nathana92]

Sweet thanks for the heads up. Where did you order it from? It looked like the only place stateside is ARB out of Washington? Or did you find another supplier for it? Also I noticed you have a v8 . . noob question but are our air boxes in the same spot in the engine bay?

I got it from 4wheelparts. I think they are in the same spot. However I don't have it plumbed yet. It's going to take some creative thinking

Got the interior stripped down and ready for a good cleaning. Let's just say it's long overdue, I've not done this in the 4 years I've owned it and doubt it was ever done by the previous owner.

took the spoiler off and pulled out the 3rd brake light to see why it wasn't working. turned out to only be a loose plug. snap!

Was able to get most of the stains out of the carpet and finished a thorough cleaning. Still need to clay/wax the exterior, but that'll be another day.

Very shiny! Looks good and kudos to you for going that extra mile! Wish I could find the time to pull that off.

Got a new dash cam today!! Now I have can hard evidence (hopefully I'll never need it). Kinda jerryrigged it though.....tucked it under the ceiling, taped it along the edge of the window down the inside of the door, under the floor mat to the 12v. That was the best way I could figure out how to do it.....so far it works great!!!!!

Any pics of where you installed your dash cam?

One year anniversary with my truck!

^ Nice, came a long way in a year.

I changed out my rear diff fluid today. I don't care what anyone says, it's a dirty, nasty, PITA, job.

Love the rig. Congrats sir

Yeah breaker bar helped and a bunch of PB Blaster. After that it was cake

 

[hearno]

Both plugs came right out - it was getting the fluid back in that really sucked. No ramp, no lift, just laying on the ground with the bottles and a tube that attaches to the top of the quart.

Joined the BHLM Club. Still going for the [MENTION=46728]magert54[/MENTION] look. Love that 4runner.

Oh, I also installed Black Series Projector lenses from the retrofit source. Happy with the results

Was the mod hard?
What are black series projector lenses?

Finished up my "Dirty Parts" 2nd battery installed and added my T4R.ORG decals to the rear windows today.

No it wasn't hard, just make sure you take your time and be careful not to break any important plastic tabs. you definitely don't want to lose your patience and try to muscle something apart. I broke a couple tabs; one tab that holds the projector lens in and two that hold the plastic cover over the signal light but nothing significant.

I'm just hoping I did a good job sealing it back up, I bought some oci butyl windshield sealant from The Retrofit Source when I bought the Black Series clear lenses so that should help a lot with sealing.

The Lenses are just replacements that are more clear and give off a cleaner light with a better cut off line and for the $40 it cost I figured why they hell not, I had them all apart anyways to try and get rid of the squirrel finders.

Here's my new dash cam pictures!! Im a rookie when it comes to mods so please don't laugh too hard. I just used a bunch of duck tape and put it under the floor mat!! It has a great picture and it looks pretty good at night too, I haven't looked at it on the computer yet so Im curious how detailed it will be....Oh yeah heres the stickers Ive collected so far and cant forget the t4r.org decal

Cool idea but that duct tape makes me cringe. You could just tuck those wires behind the plastic pretty easily.

How? I would love to...I just dont want the wire hanging

pull the bolt covers off the oh sh!t handles, take out the bolts, disengage the clips and there's a claw on the bottom, basically just pull up and out and that plastic piece comes out. to drop the headliner enough to get the wire back, tke the visors off, some 10mm bolts, maybe pull off the map light assembly, just shove the wire behind. Give it a whirl. I may be able to make a video tomorrow if you can't figure it out, let me know

You are better than Duct Tape!!
