What did you do with your 4runner today?

Brake shield? What's that? Lol. I ditched mine a couple years ago because dirt and rocks always got stuck in them creating issues.

Yeah whenever I decide to upgrade to 5th gen rotors and calipers I think I'm just gonna cut them off. They cause more trouble than they save if you ask me

Went to get an alignment and was told by the mechanic my upper control arm ball joint is too loose.. I got total chaos UCA'a that I've had for about 3 months now

Ya when I changed my wheel bearings I just left them off. I bent them and had to pull them off the rotors so many times! Drove me insane. Lol

Put in my Volant today....had to custom find/make a gasket to seal that gaping hole....

No reason they couldn't have made that hole an inch smaller...

But it fits like a glove now!

Also took the running boards off and added a couple rock lights underneath to replace the running board lights.....

Can't wait to get some nice sliders on it!

Is there a side hole on the Volant box? Why did they put one in the front?
Looks great man!

Upgraded the stereo in our 4Runner. Really happy with how it turned out (trying out the different colors options on the stereo, thats why they are different in the two photos).

Thanks sir!

Guess that's the biggest issue with the Volant's....They have an open hole at the front...I guess for the Tacoma's ram air...? Which I have done some reading here and some people cap it off, some don't. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong about the Tacoma part.

The other issue is....

Nice set up....Love the diff color options but I always end up changing it back to orange to match the stock lights...

Did you buy it second hand? I know they make one for the 4runner and I've never heard of the fitment issues before.

This guy went through a lot of work....Which looks awesome....But a trip to Home Depot and a bit of modification

I came up with this...

Nope...Right from volant. Maybe this thread link will help....

I can't believe I've never seen that before. Thanks!
You read my mind, I was just thinking it should be easy enough to find a seal like you got to fill in the gap.

I've been on the fence about that too actually. I have the wrap material at the house. I recommend buying vinyl wrap material. It's removable if you change your mind.
I actually own a tint shop and have wrap material here. It doesn't want to adhere as good as I want. I can use primer on it, but removing primer later is hard if I ever want to take it off

Fun in the rain & mud

Got the first real rain of the season this weekend. :banana: So, spent a few hours at the local OHV park blasting through mud puddles and trying out a few of the obstacles.

Alright, hold on here...how in the heck did you pull that off? Cough up the goods on this magic, brotha. :crazy:

Haha It's surprisingly simple.

Rigid's use what is called a deutsch connector and your factory is a 9006 connector. Look for the splitter and bingo! :)

Bought from these guys who have great products and GREAT customer service. I ordered expedited shipping and they contacted me saying it would be less money if I just did regular shipping and would get there in the same amount of time.

Went to Top Golf last night and had some drinks. Left the 4runner there. I drove to Seattle today for work but had my girlfriend pick up the 4runner before hitting the road. So today I saw my rig from the outside for the first time.

I have the same HU and have been very pleased, with one exception. Please lmk if you get radio interference when the headlights are on. Crutchfield said to disconnect the dimmer wire but that didn't seem to fix it, unless I disconnected the wrong wire (haven't disassembled it again to check).
