    I recently purchased a 2021 TRD Pro in MGM and I really do love it! This is my 4th 4Runner I have owned, but I never really built the other ones up for light off-roading fun, so I am really looking forward to doing that with this one.

    My current plans are:
    -Eibach TRD Pro springs to raise her up a bit
    -Gobi Stealth Rack - already ordered with shipping confirmation so that’s good news!
    -C4 Fab Lo-Pro bumper with Baja Designs S8 30” amber light-bar
    -Have to find a light weight winch for the C4 bumper
    -CBI sliders (maybe)
    -DD3 Max Fog lights
    -Dual Baja Designs Onx6+ light bars in upper grille (for aux high beams)
    -“Maybe” looking into the Morimoto Gen2 headlights with Amber DRLs
    -possibly moving up to 285/70/17 Toyos
    -I also really like the RIGd ultra swing and ultra table, but that would really only happen if I upsized the tires - this would be more of a “cool to me” mod as I think it looks pretty badass! Lol

    Ideally the Magnuson SC will get made for the 2021 and that will make me very happy!

    I also plan on improving the factory JBL sound system, but I am trying to do so with minimalist changes so I don’t lose any cargo space or anything. But I have already started with sound deadening material.

    I really like good lighting and the 4Runners have been notorious for their crappy headlights so figuring that one out will be my first big challenge. Do I modify my current TRD Pro Bi-LEDs or just switch the Morimoto Gen2’s? (Which look very cool, But they are really expensive).

    Of course none of these mods listed include our camping gear and comfort items while we are on the road. But I am sure that will be coming pretty soon as well.

    I am really looking forward to chatting and learning from you all. This is a fun hobby and I’m happy to be a part of the 4Runners.com community!

    Would love to hear where you are getting your work done on your 4Runner. I haven’t had time to find a good shop out there yet.

    I have a buddy that's owns an excellent body shop, dealing with heavy damaged vehicles. They have engine mechanics, body repair specialists, name it. When you are back shoot me a PM.
