What have you done to your 5th Gen 4Runner today?

No issues, right? lol

 

You haven't rerouted the crossover pipe yet? That was one of my first mods. It would enable you to tuck the T-case skid plate higher.

 

thanks...that settles it. I have Bilsteens to install, and picked up CF spacers in case.
Was originally going to go with .85 up front only, with stock size Nittos.
The stock size is not lost with the 2 inch lift...so 1.75 clip up front and the CF spacers in the rear it will be.

 

I'm an low voltage electrician in the audio visual field, so lucky for me the wiring is not difficult.
I'm just beginning to run the wires from the engine bay relays to the rack. Once on the rack it's easy with UV rated tie straps. Going up the windshield is a breeze with dual side KC Wire Hiders w/ 3M!

 

My dr kdss switch is still in the box. Been too lazy this winter to install. Live a good write up or video if you know of one.

 

Great install! How much more capacity does it have over stock? I know new one is 2.75l but not sure about stock.

 

The factory tank in my T4R is huge! Pretty much swallows up an entire gallon of premix. This relocation tank is smaller at 2.75 quarts yet thats still plenty of capacity.

 

As far as the vents go, I hope that I don't notice a difference. I was worried about that as well, but there are abundant reviews saying there are no issues with airflow.

Yes, I really like it so far. The screen is vivid and very responsive. Sound is superior. I have it paired with the Kicker speaker bundle, a Kenwood amplifier and a Kicker down firing subwoofer in the cargo area. I'm sure that an audiophile would pick it apart, but for me it is by far the most powerful and clear audio experience I've ever had in one of my personal vehicles.

The only negative is fingerprints! I'm going to have to keep some screen cleaners in the 4Runner!

 

The only issue is when I am pulling a very heavy trailer, the sag in the rear it creates prevents the flow of gas from the auxiliary tank into the main tank. Air bags are the fix for those rare times but I have not bothered because I rarely pull a heavy trailer. I found this out when I moved from Phoenix to Colorado. Other than that I absolutely love the tank.

 

Best helper in the World no matter the headaches

 

Wasn’t really planning on doing any lift or level kit until I walked out to my car in a flat parking lot and noticed the extreme (To me) rake. I went with a 6112 - 5160 set up (4 & 2 6112 setting). Shocks Surplus and several YouTube videos helped me complete the front back in 4 hours.

pre lift:
34-7/8” 34-7/8”
37-1/4” 37-1/4”

lift installed:
36-3/4” 36-3/4”
37-1/2” 37-5/8”

 

Why do people block out license plates in pics? You drive around W/them fully exposed. You worried bout someone seeing it on line yet people all around you live see them.

 

Looks much better! Are you on stock size tires on these Falkens?

 

Thanks. Yes, stock size tires on 17x8.5 -10.

 

Not sure if are referring to my post, but Ohio doesn’t have front plates.

 

No I wasn't & Pa. doesn't either

 

That looks super clean I had some mistakes with my cut but using use some edge trim

$13 Edge Trim Black Small, Fits Edge 1/16 to 1/8", Length 10 Feet (3.05 Meter)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00M8MAOLI/ it really cleaned up the area.

 

I like this, looks super clean as well!

I used a box cutter carving trick with a fresh blade to make the rough opening, finished it off using a burr tool bit in my drill…

 

Nice work sir

 

Right!?
License plate number won't get you far if you're a hacker as far as I'm concerned

Then there's me posting a close up lmao

 

That is why I have my hitch hooked up all the time. I live in the Bay Area, plenty of dorks on the roads and nobody is tailgating me when the hitch is on.

 

bought 25' of Pro Form weatherstrip foam tape
got uses for this all over the 4R

stuck some to the fire extinguisher mounting bracket to tighten and stop tank from sliding again. This also raised the tip up from making contact with plastic.

 

That's really good to hear. It sure does look nice in the pictures and....gotta have that volume knob. I think we can all live with some finger prints.

 

They make a screen protector for those? Sometimes that helps a lot.

 

Do you mean for the factory head unit? I used this one:

$21 Wonderfulhz Screen Protector Compatible with 2020-2024 Toyota 4Runner, Toyota 4Runner 8" Touch Screen,Shock-Resistant,Premium Tempered Glass

Nope for the Kenwood.

 

I don't but my dad does. I run a Glock 19 Gen 5 but we somehow got each other the patch haha

 

Black Rifle coffee good? I wanna get sum from the Daily Wire
