For the radio, I'm pretty sure I just used these velcro strips (just the hook side to grip to the interior): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DYCK9KDS
For the antenna, I used a "Nilight LED Light Bar Mounting Bracket": https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0824RPMDB
I'm sure there are better looking ways of...
I had a shop leave the cap off too - on an older Jeep. I've had a few other crazy things like that happen in shops - even shops I still like. I still have to weigh my time, space, tools, skills, and money - you're always rolling the dice on something. I used to think oil changes were one of...
I did the first one myself to inspect the oil, then took advantage of the free oil changes at 5K and 10K miles. They took so long to do the oil change at the dealership last time that I'm now wondering if free is worth it! I'll do my own oil changes after they stop being free -- not sure when...
It's about a half inch poke, but hardly noticeable to the naked eye. I've used a 48" straight edge to look at different angles. There's a little more poke in the front than in the rear. In the rear, I have more poke on the driver side for some reason. I'm not sure if that's the designed geometry...
It records motion events while parked and I've never had issues starting the vehicle. I assume it has a low voltage detector built in that prevents battery drain, like most of the cams I've used, but I'm not sure.
The shop that installed the tires set them to 40 PSI -- seems high to me, but I'll run them that way until I learn more or do a chalk test. I dropped to 20 PSI for a ride.
The only issue is that my TPMS stopped working today:
So I need to get that sorted out now. Not too worried about it...
I haven't felt anything like that yet, but I also haven't driven it much since the mods. I'll be taking it off-road tomorrow, so I'll get my first feel for this configuration on dirt soon. I'm hoping I'll see some snow too -- but not too much!
I just got the one pic today. I'll definitely post some more later. The shot I posted was kind of funny because it actually needs a wash but the light was just perfect to make it look shiny. We're going to get it out on the trail this weekend, so I'll have a chance to get some good pics then...
TLDR: Heres' what a 2025 4Runner ORP Underground looks like with ReadyLift 2.5" SST lift, 17x8.5 +35 Method 703 wheels, and BFG KO3 LT285/75R17 tires.
Details for anyone that is interested...
The information and images posted on this site have been helpful for me in deciding if I want to get a...
I have the 4Runner Off-Road Premium, and I’ve never driven the Passport. I thought the author’s conclusions contradicted the analysis a bit, though the article is mostly fair in its “depends on what you want to do” framing. What stood out to me is that the author acknowledges differences in...
I never notice it so I'm going to say no. I think if you were looking up in the air at the right angle -- maybe trying to spot a bird, a plane, or perhaps superman -- then it might become a momentary issue until the object moved, or you shifted your head by one centimeter to the left.
The last one I got is the rove r2-4k pro for my Jeep earlier this year. I've been pretty happy with that one but wiring it in was a lot more work the the OEM 4Runner cam with its wiring harness already setup
I haven't had any issues with it, but I usually don't use the software. Once I got it setup the way I want, I just pull the SD card if I ever want the footage off it. The camera app software did seem a little clunky. I've got some aftermarket cams on my other vehicles that were cheaper and work...
I know this post is a few months old but I just tripped across it "hoping" the speedometer reads a little high because I plan to install larger diameter tires. I just tested my ORP on its factory 265/70R18 Falken Wildpeak AT3WA tires. The speedometer was dead on -- testing by setting cruise...
FWIW, I've been on I-70 with my non-hybrid a bunch and I've never noticed an issue with power or acceleration going up any of the grades. I'll have to pay more attention next time I head up. Anything I should be looking for?
I'm not a big fan of the cold, but planning to stay in Colorado for a few more years anyway. I'll probably spend more time in warmer climates as I get older.
The rust is something people should look for in used vehicles. When I was shopping for used TJ series Jeeps, that was the number one...
