This mod will give me at least +10MPG.... 
I’ve had one of their key fobs for my 4th gen 4Runner for about 4 years and it’s been great. No noticeable mpg improvement though.
Really cool! Never knew about these. And I would've gotten the same colorway you did!
I found them accidentally searching online on a 4Runner site.
They have several colors... pretty decent price and fast shipping
My kids said the same... LOL
My wife said it looks like a Transformer.
Replaced the alternator this morning. Took 2 hours. Was able to do it all from above. The one in the car had a remanufactured sticker on it but I could not find any records that it had been replaced previously. Going to have the old one rebuilt and probably sell it as I don't think I'll need a spare for a long time and I hate having extra stuff in the garage.
It's an easy job. I did disconnect the upper coolant line so I could wiggle the alternator through the top. Another interesting thing is the bottom bolt on the alternator did not have a nut on the back side as was mentioned in other people's threads.

For sure, the alternator belt was routed backwards around the idler pulley too, stretched a ton, it's the perfect vehicle for just driving haha. Not a restoration example. Price was right for all the sweet jumps I plan to do.

Installed new OEM hub flanges. Took care of 50% of the clunk. Replaced the fuel filter and removed the V8 badge. (Thought the hatch was plastic and put a small crease in it. Not impressed with myself there)

After finally getting my DT headers installed, I took her out for a little off-roading. Came home, parked it in the driveway only to come out a few hours later to a new oil leak. Guys, this is getting discouraging. Here’s a photo from today.
Leak from where?

@FxFormat No more pics if your going to wear socks with flip-flops.
When working on vehicle choice of footwear should be as follows crocs, flip-flops (absolutely no socks), or bare feet.
