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

Cool! Me too great game on Sunday was a nail biter but a win!
Those studs are factory and have plastic, finger tight nuts to hold the rear liners in. ARK supplies machine nuts to replace them and secure the guards. I missed tightening that one ugh. Thanks again and go Bills!!

Welcome!
Go Bills!

Looks good! How do you like it so far? Could you post some more pics of the new bumper with a few side shots? I was thinking about getting this instead of waiting for the ARB Summit bumper.

No complaints so far. I’ll be happy to post some more pictures, but it won’t be until early next week as I’m out of town right now.

I ran into a couple installation issues. The first was during installation of lights in the new bumper. The Baja Designs S2 SAE fog light replacement kit from Westcott Designs isn’t compatible with the CBI bumper. The mounting holes in the bracket provided by Westcott don’t match the ones on the bumper. I rigged a temporary solution, but I’m going to have to get custom brackets fabricated locally.

Also be aware that a couple of the measurements for the cut line in the installation manual aren’t accurate. So definitely get a laser level and mark your cut line that way.

Put that rubber weather strip in between front and rear doors and gave her bath.

May I ask from where you got the strip? Im looking for something more substantial than my current plastic edge

1k mile break-in oil & filter change yesterday (947 to be exact). Oil was very dirty and smelled a bit like gasoline. I was surprised how dirty it was for the low mileage. Did not see any metal particles.

Previous:
- Added TRD skid plate
- Painted front recovery hooks red
- Window tint - Xpel XR Plus -- 15% doors & back; 70% windshield
- Installed Viofo 229 Pro front/rear dashcam
- Removed the hideous air dam
- Blacked out side iForce Max and Rear iForce max badges
- Added heritage circle overlay on back iForce max circle (all other badges blacked out when purchased)
- Added rear seat backs all weather mats - Lasfit

Future:
- Oil & filter change at 2500 miles and again at 5000 miles, then every 5000

Got 1st oil change today at just shy of 4500 miles.

Hi Bryce,

Not today but yesterday. Added air compressor to my rig. Added more pink to my wife's.
