What did you do with your 4runner today?

rust

Holy beautiful. . .what are you using?

I sprayed everything down with simple green..gave it 10min to work..hosed it off..then let it dry.
I used a paint/rust stripper wheel, a small wire wheel, and a wire brush to knock down all of the rust. (I have surface rust..nothing too crazy)
I then used a paint prep spray and wiped all the surfaces down.
I used Rustolem rust reformer (rattle can)

Got rid of the ugly cheap on off for my front spot lights, used a factory ish switch....dumb question im sure... red yellow power one, light the other, black ground, green goes to switch(remote). Bottom light on the switch stays on always.. how do I wire this to make the bottom light not be always on.

20 gallons of gas, replaced tail lights with '06 style lights. Removed skid plate because dealer returned it to me with only one bolt in it

Any easy way to restore the painted area under the taillights w/out painting the entire bumper?

Where did you order your tail lights from?

Got some duratracs on. I went with 265/70-17's because I didn't want to deal with any rubbing. I don't have time for that right now. When the sun comes out I'll take some better pictures to update my build thread.

Cheapo amazons. I'm replacing them soon. They aren't right for that mount. I had gotten them for my dad for backup lights and when I got the brackets I just slapped them on real quick.

Hey. Nothin wrong with that. I am not here to judge by any means. Matter of fact, Amazon flourishes with diamonds in the rough. Unless you have money to spend on popular name brands, going the route you went is fine too. I would highly recommend Auxbeam. Great reviews and experience. I'm actually pricing out pods and its between a few sellers. I really like 3x2 style pods and thought that's what you had goin on

For sure. They look cool and would probably function better if I removed the bug shield, but they cast a lot of light onto the hood and it's reflected pretty badly.

I'll make sure and pay attention to what you end up with. I don't want to spend ridgid money on new lights but am definitely going to replace them with something a little better.

Anyone know what's a good exhaust for a 4.0 v6

Dropped it off at the alignment shop after finishing the front end and wheel spacers. Finally...

Come on lets be honest. . .no matter the resolution that pumpkin looks brand new.

 

[blackoutt]

Sprayed some WD-40 on my customish rear sway bar links, they get squeaky if I go more than a month without spraying. Also figured out that my left headlight was dim because one of the tabs for the bulb wasn't engaged properly :withstupid: fixed that and adjusted my headlights down just below a horizontal. You're welcome other drivers.

Dropped my 2003 4Runner off at the dealership this morning for the dash replacement. Pretty excited.

I bought it used for 800

Toyota's Pacific Blue Metallic ..stock color and I don't do social media so no Instagram no filter no magic ...I just hit that auto adjust button on my iPads camera which I guess is a basic filter in essence.

Dang - I think my T4R is the same color. Never seen it look so good.

One of these days I'll do all my upgrades and post a final picture. Hoping it turns out looking half this good.
