What did you do with your 4runner today?

how much wires needs to be extended for the tailgate window switch? [MENTION=50507]CookieRoe[/MENTION]

Both switches have 5 wires. I'll post a pic of each harness for ya (if I'm lucky they have the same colored wires to take the guesswork out of wiring them up).

Had the great pleasure to meet [MENTION=63211]emelianenkov[/MENTION] tonight, really nice guy! Awesome truck. But it was also dangerous. Alex has a digital inclinometer installed on his rig and it's crazy awesome. Translation: my next project. Hardest part is finding a place to install it.

Inclinometer, altimeter, temperature, compass, comes in a variety of color LEDs.

It's late, I'm out............

Great to finally meet you [MENTION=50507]CookieRoe[/MENTION]! You've got a very clean and tastefully modded truck! It was also great to see all my hard work together in one place. Not just bits and pieces being tested in my truck here and there. It's been an ongoing project since April of 2012.

The digital inclinometer is an awesome little toy! Just a fair warning, the compass doesn't work because of the board layout, but it's ok. Everything else is awesome, plus you have a limited with the compass anyway, you're fine!

Can't wait to see how everything works with the 09 center console kit. Lol don't you just love when people hop in your truck and start unplugging stuff to investigate your next mod? Lol I'm excited because I want to try something very similar as I told you. Perhaps a modded smokers kit. Who knows? :)

We'll have to meet up again sometime without the time constraints. There's so much I want to tinker with on your truck to take it to the next level. I know of many interesting mods that are both badass and factory-esque (like the hidden 12v mod :wink: )

Off to pass out!

Moved house! The 4Runner felt like a car when I got back in it after driving the 26' moving truck all day. Also have a new appreciation for truck drivers. I'd lose my mind dealing with people cutting me off all day.

 
The ring around the lighter does light up.



What I'd love to be able to do would be replace the lighter in my "smokers kit" with another covered power outlet. I want to keep the little ash tray, it's where I keep my Chapstick!! :pound:


Can always do this for about $25 an a hours time

Changed differential fluids. They all stunk pretty bad but the rear diff was TERRIBLE and VERY thick and dark grey. The fluid at the bottom of my oil pan was like toothpaste. The magnetic plug had a thick layer of gunk on it. I can literally tell the difference driving with new fluid. Seems to speed up slightly better like there is less resistance. I'm glad I changed it.
 
Gave it a bath and waxed it. Thinking I'll change the front and rear diff fluids tomorrow

Rim and tire combo looks great , i personally really like the look and fitment of fj series stuff combined with a 4runner .great choice !
 
I have a wash planned for later considering I haven't done it in a while. But I went out and got a Scion T1815 to swap out later as well.

Damn man....those babys are stuffed under there!

Nice look though! What year FJ are those from?

Hows the noise from those tires? Im going to be doing some sort of trial tire in the Spring, but I don't want a tooth rattler...lol
 
They are not THAT bad...only 265/75/16 so just barely larger than stock. although when I got my emissions test when I purchased the truck the testing center stated my front was lowered 1"!

That style originally came on the 07 FJ SE edition truck, but they were anthracite. The black versions came on the the last few years of the trails team edition. Seems like the silver ones have been available since 07.

So far not bad, but I've only put like 5 miles on them. Guys supposedly out here in colorado love them and all t he oilfield guys use them on their service and rig trucks, so that says something.

Are you out here in co? Might be able to help you w your leds if you are having issues getting them done.

Lol, they look good....just stuffed, thats all.

Thanks for the offer on the LED's. Im in NH, just a little ride from CO :car: Alex takes good care of the LED mods I do. He did all of my other (soldered) LED mods, just hasn't had time to do the 12v mod on the HVAC yet.

Im selling him a motorcycle...Im sure he'll make some time shortly :happy:
