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

My bumper has a mount point, so I am starting there with an NMO mount so I can swap antennas if I want. I only use 1 radio at a time typically. The bumper is low, but should be better than the handheld antenna inside the truck.

 

Good stuff!

 

I thought about getting a different color of the side pieces, but I didn’t know what to get. My Runner is white but white just seems like it would get dirty, the red looks more orange in their pictures and the blue is too light for my taste.

 

Why cut the bolt head off & remove the Jam nut?

 

Installed the black/hd sumo springs. Zip tied the sensor wire out of the way. Towing my popup next weekend, can’t wait to compare the squat afterwards

 

Please re read the process.
The bolts used in the front, (bolt heads cut off, making them studs) are cut to make them the proper length.
The jam nuts are used to tighten them fully into that location using loctite. Once tightened, the jam nuts have to be removed to proceed to the next step.
If the jam nuts are not removed one could not proceed to insert the spacers into the holes.

 

I have printed the directions from earlier, just not reviewed thoroughly. I was thinking the jam nuts were on top. Thanks for clarifying

 

Were you able to purchase all the hardware from same vendor?

 

No sir, used 2 vendors.

Quote: “Items ordered came from Belmetric & McMaster-Carr.”

 

Would you mind giving me the break down? It just rolled over to 9636mi.The pic was at 9600 on way to late lunch.

 

Sure, here is the breakdown !

Look up what was used and search McMaster and if you don’t find what you need, search Belmetric.
If you don’t find what you need there, do as others have done and source items.
You have all the information at your hands and want someone to do the work.

 

All from McMasters $91.09

 

Hey, does anyone know what the total headroom will be once seat jackers are installed? This is regarding a 5th gen 4runner with a sunroof, thank you.
