What did you do to your 6th Gen 4Runner today?? 👨🏻‍🔧 🧰 🛠

I was installing my RCI full skid plate protection and I hit a HUGE snag. If you have Westcott sliders already installed the fuel tank skid plate will NOT install without modification. The RCI plate has two bolt slots on the front right corner (one of them is a slot and the other is a hole at the end) and the Westcott slider has a bolt right in the middle of those two bolt slots. The is no way to install it without machining a new slot for the existing slider bolt. I have an appointment with Westicott and they will machine me a new slot for their bolt.

Here's a picture to show the issue:

I will post all the pictures once I get the full tank plate fixed on Wednesday.

BTW, the RCI transfer plate's cross member also uses the same bolt hole that the Westcott rock sliders (the front one this time) but you can remove it and put the cross member using the same bolt but the cross member will be about 1/4" lower. It does not affect the installation and I doubt you will notice the difference but I thought it would be good to know.

Redline Hood Struts for me today.

I forgot I also did that yesterday along with the Hella horns.

I did the horns about a week ago I think. Another worthwhile investment.

One of you guys had a bolt-on phone mount for the front "hand-bar" that sits between the driver and passenger seats. I can't see to find it now, but a link would be appreciated.

Have you looked at the Offroam phone mount? I have it on my Land Cruiser and just got it for the 4Runner - truly the best phone mounts out there. So solid, and perfectly designed so the phone is within inches of your fingers while driving for easy "tapping"

Would love to see some more pics of those ambers from a distance!

Mr. Wolfe

I took some shots this morning in a parking garage. Hope this is better.

Wow! I actually like that one better than the arm-mount on the hand-bar posted in reply after yours. Thanks!! I see you have tested it, so if it's secure, I'm sold.

I put on new hood struts, took off the front air dam, got the front windows tinted, set up a memory seat, learned how to turn off the display, setup navigation on the dashboard, and posted a stupid question that I should have known the answer to. Waiting to see if there's any sales on skid plates for the 4th and then I'll be done with it.
