    I have been busy on my 4R the last few weeks. I am nearing the end of my improvements.
    The last few mods were as follows:

    Installed the SSO slimline bumper and a Warn EVO 10s winch. You can see my install and solution to creating a cover for the access hole in the engine cover to the clutch at the link below.

    https://www.4runners.com/threads/cowboy59’s-install-of-the-sso-slimline-bumper-warn-evo-10s-winch.31785/

    Here is a picture of the cover I made.

    I also show how I trimmed the plastic cover, that attached to the bottom of the oem bumper and on to the frame member, to cover the gap between the SSO bumper and the RCI skid plate. Below is a picture of what I am referring to.

    While installing the bumper, I also installed the Anytime Backup & Front camera kit while installing the bumper. You can see the details of that install at
    My Build Page.

    I feel terrible for you. We had an oil change shop strip the drain plug on the oil pan of our Honda. Fortunately we caught the issue before we destroyed anything. They claimed it was already that way when we brought it in. Have your auto insurance company? If you cannot get help from them, consider a go-fund-me page if necessary, as I will gladly contribute.

    Valvoline (National office) has asked for details (VIN). They MAY be able to help. Fortunately (or, unfortunately), we had planned an Alaskan cruise in fall, due to a windfall tax return with mandatory withdrawals from my TSP account last year and this year, we have the money). Norwegian is refunding our deposit due to circumstances. Other issues had us reconsidering (our dog-sitter is pregnant and due about the time of our proposed trip; 3 other individuals cancelled as well)

    Stories like this are why I always get my work done at the dealer. That way it's on their hands to make things right and not fight with a third party. I also say that as someone who worked at a Jiffy Lube. I've seen the crap some techs have done to vehicles. I know dealers aren't perfect, but for the most part, they correct their mistakes with little fighting.

    It does make sense to go to the dealer when you need work that you're not willing to do yourself......at least when still under warranty. The better dealer might not be the dealer closest to you.

    After that, find a shop that is honest and does quality work. This might require some time and effort.

    Sorry about your incident. My neighbor 21 yo druggie who could not mow a lawn or loosen a screw got a job at a quick change by me. This kid never even owned car and just got fired by a car wash then the quick lube hired him. After messing up two cars and drain plugs not being tightened they let him go.

    I always try to find someone at the dealer with some gray hair and more seasoned I hope to do my work. Agreed dealers are not perfect by a long shot but if I get all my service done at one place it’s harder to pass any blame.

    Who cares? This never shows everything anyway.
    Also wheel chocks! And the parking brake! And drop the spare and stick it between the truck and the frame near where you're working!

    My thumb went splat last year because I didn't do all of the work myself when helping someone. I'm lucky that's all that happened. I'm fine now, but I could've lost something.

    Looks good, it’s nice to have them match.
    Some people do the reverse. Get an FJ Cruiser shift knob to match the transfer case knob. It requires some disassembly to cut off about half an inch of plastic in the middle.

    Put a deposit down on a Prius Prime. Not getting rid of the 4R, rather my VW. My commute is short enough that I can use the battery range alone and use my gas savings to fill up the 4Runner lol.

    Could you explain how this works? I hear people often say this, but never can get someone to explain how. A prius gets at most 25 miles on battery. If you're charging at work and maxing out those 50 miles per day and you work about 250 days a year thats only saving around $2k annually. E-Gas here averages $2.77, and $3.05 for Real gas. $2.77 per gallon going 12500 annual miles at 17mpg = $2036.76. How can you buy a new, more than $32k car so cheap that you're saving $2k a year over your current investment. I have a '22 and average 17mpg and travel about 5500 miles a year. At $2.77 per gallon, I can drive 200k miles before that Prius would be financially viable just to purchase. Thats about 30 years of driving this 4runner. Is the Prius that much cheaper than your VW? Please share your financial secret. Us dummies out here would sure appreciate it.

    Ebay 12v chase light finally arrived ! Starting mounting to rear roof rack, energizing from cargo 120v/100w driving outlet - easy switch control. Just a fun idea for dusty foggy forest service road convoys. Could double as a distracted driver hazard light

    They are beefy and look great in person. RCI is having another Memorial Day sales event right now, so you can save 15% on these. Well worth it and you can get them with or without the top plate as they bolt on.
