What did you do with your 4runner today?

Been searching for about 6 months, and last night I finally found what I've been looking for: a 2009 Sport Edition 4wd V6 with 68k miles (left). I picked it up today and couldn't be more excited! Replacing my 2005 Sport Edition 2wd 130k miles (right).

Put a new set of cooper discoverer at3s on it. White Letters out! I like the look, we'll see how they wear. They're more quiet than the duelers that came on the runner, but they don't ride as smooth as my old tacoma's michelins.

They were, however, about 330 bucks cheaper as a set.
 
Could you post the link to where you got this?
Thanks

Got it off ebay. Search for 4runner usb. Make sure the plug is about 55mm long. Not going to post the link where I bought it as the one I purchased from a colorado seller appeared to be used, and the seller would not work with me regarding a solution. Do not want to give him any more business...

This appears to be the same one:

Planning to drop my skidplates to clean up and repaint. Then some sort of oil/wax coating on my surface-rusty frame before reassembling.

Any tips? All the bolts for my sidesteps came out no problem so I'm hoping not to snap off any/too many of the skidplates bolts. Figure I'll hit them all width PB Blaster a few times before I do it.

sounds like you need a gallon of fluid film to brush on the frame semiannually.

Thank you. It's an old truck with a lot of miles but it's pretty solid and I'd like to keep it from deteriorating too badly so I can hand it down to my son in a few years. It will make a good "first car" for him and I can replace it with a clean, Southern V8.
 
GPS and Reverse camera button in

Got my buttons from AirOnBoard yesterday. Not sure when I can proceed with the projects I have planned, but they are nice!!

Replace my Camburg UCA uniballs and got my 255/80 ST Maxx's mounted. Coming from 285/70 they definitely dont have the stance, but they look awesome and I can feel the weight difference in the steering. Ive only driven 20 miles but I like them so far.

Sweet.. What do you have for your system? Looks like you are an audiophile.

I am almost done installing my system. Running 6.5 MB quart all around and 8" sub. with 5 channel MB quart amp. Sounds decent needs a bit more tuning.

I am currently running a Kenwood DNX572BH, Rockford Fosgate's new marine amps, the PM600X4, and the PM1000x1bd, those are powering my Rockford T1675 in the front, JL evolution XR650 in the back, and a Kicker Comprt gen 1. I installed the 360 last night and it really woke everything up, the adjustability is sooo nice. Hardest part was finding some place to stuff it, everything is installed stealthy, amps are under the front seats, the 360 had to go where the factory nav unit was, everything else is mounted in stock locations behind stock grills along with a crap ton of dynamat. I originally wanted to use that area for storage but it was worth sacrificing the lost space.

I am an installer by profession and this is going into my daily driver, so I wanted something at least decent. I do like the MB's, maxxsonics put out some nice product. Their headquarters is like 20 minutes from my house.
 
We put in new brighter lights in the map lights, dome lights forward and rear, front door lights, and new bulbs to the rear license plate lights and front parking lights.

Yesterday we had the headlights resurfaced to get them cleaned up. Will post a pic or two when it gets dark here.
 
got my spidertrax in the mail today. ordered the blemished ones and they still look great and save $40 over the others
