    i saw a youtube video from some pro where you have to stretch them in a triangle shape. I did that with my mirror wrapping, it made it a lot easier to deal with.

    Anyone else’s hitch receiver get some early rust? In the Northeast I live near the salt water and get all the winter bull shit.

    I ended up wire brushing all the flaking factory paint off throughout, cleaning with some mineral spirits and using Rust-O-Leum primer and then the bed liner spray for a few coats each.

    a much needed improvement as far as looks go.

    It’s the c4 hybrid bumper. Not sure if the weight. I’m sure someone can chime in with that information

    The C4 Hybrid165 pounds with the full bull bar so subtract the weight of the stock bumper from that. Then add the weight of any lights/winches.

    Did an interior cleaning this past weekend, vacuum, all windows, 303 protectant wipe down. It was needed with all the pollen the last couple months.

    Updated the firmware on my Etune plus system. I did not have any issues before, but the update is supposed to fix some thing and improve overall. Very easy to do.

    My 4runner needed new tires, son drives that vehicle now. Replaced the C load BFG ko2s with SL load Wildpeaks yesterday!

    Hit this milestone on the way to work this morning. Got the truck used in Jan of 2020 with 32k miles. Everyday driver for me. She has been great!

    Yup live in NJ and I've touched mine up a couple times. I leave my hitch in yearound so had some rust around the receiver and also where the safety chains latch. Mines a 16 and I've probably touched it up 2 or 3 times so far. There and an aftermarket exhaust are the only 2 areas I've found rust on the whole vehicle.

    For those that chimed in on my exhaust question, appreciate the feedback. I decided to spend the extra money and went with an oem gasket. I can say for sure there's definitely a quality difference between the two. I will also admit I'm an asshole because I forgot there was a little flange that sits between the connection for the gasket when bolting them together. For some reason I don't remember that being there when I took out the mufflers for the DD trd replacement section. The gasket I put in there last time was F'd and I'm pretty sure I resolved my exhaust rattle issue.

    Relocated heated seat switches to the sides of the center console area. Before they were in the lower switch panel behind the cup holder which made them a pain to access if I was using the cup holder. Also popped in all my switch blanks for the CN designs 3 panel insert. front anytime camera, rear window switch relocate, and light bar will occupy those slots.

    Color matched the rear bumper, blacked out the badges, put in the black “TUNDRA” inlay and added bedrails. Small mods, but they make me happy. Bigger mods coming soon.
