    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    I got to spend last weekend with the wife in the Ozarks for our 24th anniversary. We followed a route we previously took about 8 years ago with the no longer existent Central Overland. It was great weather, comfortable during the day and cool at night for great sleep. We drove up to Marshall...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    The plasti-dip option for me is a way to: 1. Cover the chrome emblems easily without taking them off. 2. Allows me to see if I like the color prior to actually painting long term. 3. Is very easy to apply and in my experience remove. I have pressure washed some dip on my daughters 3rd gen...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    I've wanted to paint my wheels for sometime now but due to health issues just didn't feel up to it. I'm starting to feel some better and decided it was time to get out of the house. I decided to plasti-dip to see if I liked it before painting. I coated the wheels with four coats of black dip and...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    Recently I had to pull another 4Runner out of the mud and this got me thinking about the front recovery points. The factory tie points seem beefy enough for most things I might run into but they are small and hard to reach. I don't have plans to replace the front since I like the factory...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    I was surprised this one worked so well. I do notice it getting a little loose after 5 or 6 days but reseating seems to take care of it. Also, before mounting I cleaned the dash very well and press firmly when mounting. Worked nicely so far.

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    It's an inexpensive suction mount I picked up to try out on my last trip. It worked out pretty good, it has a slight shake at times but overall for the price I'm pretty happy. Eventually I will probably go with a Ram mount to make it more stable. Arkon Windshield Dashboard Car Mount...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    Thanks. It's worked well for me so far. I don't put anything heavy up there to keep the 4R from being top heavy. I would change a couple things if I were to do it again. 1.) I would build it out of the beefier unistrut. 2.) I would mount it 1/2" higher.

    Originally posted 11/14/2015 Last weekend I got to spend four days and three nights in the Ozarks with a few friends. We ran part of what some call the "Highwater Mark" or "Arkansas Overland" trail, the rest was a route I planned after some research. After many months of little to no rain we...

    Originally posted 10/2015 I have a four day trip coming up through the Ozarks and needed a way to secure the iPad mini. I purchased an inexpensive Arkon mount to give a try. If this doesn't work out I'll spend the money and get a Ram mount. Arkon Windshield Dashboard Car Mount...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    Originally posted 10/2015 I was able to get in the forest last weekend and got to use the compressor after the trip. The compressor worked great for two vehicles and then seemed to slow down. Once home and some troubleshooting I discovered only one motor was running. A fuse had blown on one...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    I've been saving for sometime now so I could pick up a compressor to be mounted in the engine bay. I had the MF50 in the past and it simply couldn't handle the load. After reading many reviews and looking over specs I decided to go with the ARB CKMTA12 dual due to it's output. I was able to...

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    Stumbled on an inexpensive small shovel from Harbor Freight and decided to see how it would mount up on my custom roof rack. As I have time I'm also going to add mounts for two scepter water cans and possibly a fuel can.

    2003 4Runner Limited V8 slow build

    I'm on "mud" off and on looking at what others are doing to their 120's. I like the GX's style and looked at several before finding my 4Runner and noticed there are more GXs builds here than 4R, so sharing mine. I'm reposting from another site so most of this will be older and I'll work up to...

    Central AR Meeting

    Aquatic mishap :doh:, if you drove the full route it would take most of the day with a few stops. We cut the route a tad short due to the aquatic mishap.

    Check the map again, I labeled one of the waypoints Flatside.

    Central AR Meeting

    Yes, NF 58 is occasionally gated but I also added a few areas that could be gated, tree down, and water possibly high considering the weather this weekend. I added red hazard markers for these areas. Hard to say on what is needed for the weather this weekend. I'm sure others have thoughts on...
