Hi M&M, I really don't think you need to worry too much. The rubber feet sit behind the aluminum side rail, so they are shielded from direct sunlight and potential UV damage. I'm sure they're rugged enough to withstand high ambient temperatures within the ranges you'd experience. Hope that...

Ha ha... it's a good start.

My mods (excluding the bike rack) add about 500lbs to the gross vehicle weight. With that weight and the aerodynamic hit from the RTT, I'm getting between 18-20mpg with my average over the last 5 tanks of gas averaging 18.6mpg.

Thanks @HVLA. Regarding your questions: 1. I haven't tracked it, but it's probably more than I'd care to admit. 😳 2. No YouTube channel. Maybe some day...

One year ago, I took delivery of my 2025 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium iForceMAX. It was one of the first 50 6th Gens to arrive at the Port of Portland, and I was psyched! I’d done the research and had my dealer (Columbia Gorge Toyota in The Dalles) place a factory reservation for the...

I installed the CBI Super Stock Covert Recovery Bumper on my TRD ORP hybrid and I've been really happy with it. Total install time (including the WARN EVO 10-S) was about 4.5 hrs, and the hardest/scariest part was just cutting and finishing the edge of the plastic bumper cutout. I found this...

You really can't go wrong with the Sherpa. I considered both the Westcott and the Sherpa, and I'm glad I went with the Capital rack. The fit is solid, installation was easy, and there is very little wind noise. Mine has held up great and I have no regrets.

I actually ended up going with the CBI Super Stock Covert bumper with a set of Baja Designs S2 Pro fogs and a WARN EVO 10k winch, and I'm really happy with it. Here's a quick iPhone pic:

Here's my detailed post about the Sherpa Capital rack. I'm a big fan. You can mix and match with this stuff -- I also have the Westcott Designs rear hatch ladder and I love their stuff, too...

What license plate frame did you use? Can you share a link?

See my post here: https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/threads/switchpros-keypad-mounting-bracket-from-westcott-designs.7525/ You have to remove the plastic cover panel and measure for the location of the holes for the mounting screws (I agree, a template would have been nice...) but it wasn't that...

Take a look at this thread: https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/threads/installed-arb-twin-motor-air-compressor-using-bpf-mounting-bracket.3936/ ... and this gallery of detailed install photos for one option: https://lastinglight.pixieset.com/bpfandarbaircompressorinstall/

I finally got this installed. The black plastic plate below the headlight is exactly the right size/shape surface to mount the strobe onto, and I was able to wire it into my SwitchPros 9100 for control from the dash. Here are a couple of install photos to show the process, while I had the...

I can charge it from 15% to 90% in under two hours with the EcoFlow throttled to only charge at 400W (not drawing the full 2400W off the inverter). The reason I did that is that the Toyota DC-AC inverter is really loud when it's maxed out. See my other post about that here...

Right. I wasn't saying it was complicated to tap the 12v battery — just that it turned out to be more complicated than I thought to get the 12v battery to maintain its charge using the hybrid battery as an input.

Oh, right. I explored that option, but it seemed like it was going to be quite complicated. I ended up just using the 2400W Inverter to charge an EcoFlow power station instead. It'll power the Dometic refrigerator for 3-4 days continuously (as well as laptops and devices, as needed). As...

If you're asking about the Blue Sea Systems outlets that provides 12v in the rear cargo area, I installed that one myself. You can read the detailed desciption here: https://www.4runner6g.com/forum/threads/blue-sea-systems-12v-power-panel-install-in-orp-hybrid.4046/ If you're looking for a...

Gently used a plastic pry tool to release the retaining clips.
