TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

This is the mount I had on my Tacoma and work great but on the 4runner it moves a little so I will probably have a local tw member fab me a new one right now he's working on a 2ndgen taco 1 for another local member

 

i guess you dont need to ground the antenna?.. i only see the coax plugging up there

 

Well mine didnt come with a grounding wire so just the mount and truck body ground it

 

I believe you just have to ground the CB itself

 

I think some antennas depending on what type you get

 

How does it know what you're transmission temp is ? Do you have to run a sensor to the transmission pan? Like you...I'd love to have a trans temp gauge...actually, I have been looking for a place to put one. Also...how does it know or calculate your MPG ? Is it very accurate?? If it can do all this...and do it well, maybe I should look into getting one of these. Thanks Ramon

 

it connects to the OBD reader on the 4runner.. and gets the data from the 4runners computer

 

Josh is a great guy...no one was making nice racks for 3rd gen 4Runners. Most looked like huge baskets. So Josh started building them out of his garage...built them for 3-4 years. Josh had a waiting list for days... Then all of the sudden GOBI stepped in and sued him say'in his racks looked to much like theirs...or something to that effect. Anyway he had to stop that day! @ramonortiz55 was next on the table and lost out. I think I paid like $900 including shipping. Extremely well made...I absolutely love it. I'm Hoping someday to have one of those fold up tents on it! We're hoping once this BS law suit is done...Josh can go back to building them again.

 

last chance.

trade you my fridge for that roof rack

 

So does it work?

Yes. I barely installed it Saturday. So I am still learning how to use it and what not.

@JWaldz recommended it to me.

 

Hahaha.....Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm No!!

 

I will look it up and read on it then. Thanks for the link!

 

I want one of those...there's also plenty of other shit on my list of wants.

 

Comes in handy. helps me keep an eye on cooland and transmission oil temperature.

 

Dude...is your avatar a picture of your wheels? Those look frik'in sik!! Who makes them??

 

@Russtoy @rjsimz theyre like $130 brand new, I waited until one popped up on TW and I got it for $90

 

Pic of my old 4th gen. Method NV's. Loved them.

 

Yeah...money that could go towards my front suspension though....
