What did you do with your 4runner today?

How much rubbing do you have with that set-up?!

So far I've only experienced slight rubbing when backing into the driveway, looks like I just need to push the fender lining in more. Discount Tire was kind enough to trim the front bumper for me.

Looking into Icon or Radflo for my next purchase
 
Changed oil,rotated tires,and new rear pads:cheers:

So I broke my key fob a few weeks ago and didn't want to pay toyota 200 dollars for a new one, so I got on Amazon and started looking around. Found one for 19.99 and got a rubber cover for it too so maybe it won't break again. Bought it Tuesday it showed up today, and only took a minute to program. It works great and has surprisingly good range. I'm pleased for 30 bucks total.

Link? The cover looks cheaper than the 19.99 I'd have to spend to replace my wife's remote.
 
Front hitch is on
But i will add f u cbi
Many holes did not line up
Errrr
About 2 hours wasted reaming out holes to make hitch line up
Fyi ato front hitch is a much better design

After a night of drinking I decided 11pm was a good time to install my Morimoto retro-quik projectors. Followed the write up by Gaterose. Taking the headlights apart was straight forward. Baked @ 250 for 8 minutes to separate and again to reseal. The wiring had me stumped. I'm blaming it on the beer, but I couldn't figure it out. Gave up at 1:30am. After a few hours of sleep and coffee, I realized I had the wiring for the ballast backwards. :ybrick:
I can't wait to see how these look at night.
 
Finally mounted my mag light again I've had it in my Tacoma the FJ now this
4 runner just took me a year and two minutes to install:playball: and my buddy over on Fjcruiserforums.com got me started on the Velcro patches.

I also had to make adjustments to get the bumper mounts to line up. 5minutes with a drill and it lined up. Then trim for hitch.
 
Usually not a fan of plastidip, but I did the grill and think it turned out pretty good. Also put a clear protection film on the roof to protect the paint from the gobi fairing.

You should have one more of those straight extensions. Lift the rear gate and feed it in that little hole by the latch on the bottom and turn. haha

I think it's all there look to right of pic barely in pic.

The loop end is to turn the loop on the jack only. Stick the two straight pieces together feed through rear bumper right in center shine a light in the hole will see the square hole use bent end as the handle to turn and lower spare.

yea i got it
but i did not know what the curved piece was for and it was not fitting through that hole
its ok i will never have to use that again
wooot

so i am not real happy with the way i ran he wiring to the tiregate license plate light and for backup camera
but i see no other way to do it
i just zip tied the wire loom to tiregate
i will look for better options

so my lca alignment cams are all frozen
SHOCKING
so it looks like that has to be next on my list
today i got wheel studs welded into tiregate
ran running lights to the new license plate location
ran a reverse power wire for the second rear view camera "the first one will be locked by tiregate now"
did inner and outer tre's
got the front hidden hitch installed
and wire wheeled most of the frame and painted it
this frame is in great shape...minimal rust, mostly just some surface rust on the weld joints.....

so much more work to do......
errrrr

Took my runner out to a local park and grabbed a quick pic on the way home. She looks pretty good if I do say so myself :eyebrows:
