TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

How do you like it? What size do you have and do you think it’s sufficient?
I’m looking at for a 50ish qt fridge and really like the Dometic one but haven’t looked into the indel b yet

 

I want one but then I saw the price.

 

I’m seeing $600+ my 73quart copy was $173 lol

 

nice welds

 

Looks badass! Can’t wait to see when it’s in

 

Well I guess I'm heading out on another long trip. Friday I leave for Wisconsin to visit a friend over the weekend, then from there I'll head West towards Montana, Wyoming, and the Pacific Northwest.

Anyone have any suggestions on places to see, trails to run, etc?

Right now the places I want to see for sure are Glacier NP, Yellowstone NP, and the Tetons. I'll probably be gone for about 2.5 weeks and don't have much of a plan as of now.

 

Right. I can’t find time for shit between school, work, and a (degrading) social life

 

Well my internship overlaps with the surf trip I was supposed to take to El Salvador this summer so hopefully I’ll be able to find something fun to do with the 4Runner after the internship is over

 

Well I graduated Sunday with my ME degree. I have a job lined up, signed the offer a little while ago, now I'm just waiting on a start date. I was working an internship at my university, but they don't let you keep working after graduation so I'm not working until I start my real job.

I figured rather than sitting around for 3 weeks, I might as well take advantage of the time off and do something I won't be able to do for a long while most likely. Grab my stuff, load up the 4Runner, and drive.

I've never been to that area of the country, and it's so far from here it takes a week just to drive there and back, so you'd need at least 2 weeks off of work to make a trip out of it. Gotta take advantage of the opportunities when they appear.

 

Congrats dude! My graduation is tonight, also ME

 

Work at Magnaflow over the summer and then come back to Phoenix in August to finish my masters and work from home until I find a real job

 

Thanks man! Congrats to you too. So glad to be done with undergrad. I had 18-19 hours a semester for the last 4 semesters and work...

Thanks! I get 2 weeks PTO plus holidays so no more crazy long trips for me most likely. At least you're close to cool stuff so 9 days should go pretty far for you.

Well if you're looking to move down south there's lots of engineering positions here in Huntsville, but I don't think youd want to move down here after living in Arizona and California haha

 

Well that took all of 15 min @MattJakobs thanks for the hands

 

I forgot how quick and easy it is to rebuild a CV. Did two inners a few weeks ago and for all the hassle of removing them from the truck, takes a few min each to rebuild. Just have to use a whole roll of paper towels...unless your super cool and have a parts washer.

 

FIFY

 

NICE!

 

i need to reboot mine soon. SDHQ boots lasted exactly 1 year

 

will be this time. gotta replace them soon before summer.

 

I’ve had good luck with oem boots. Need to rebuild the two spares in my garage

 

I’ve had the cvj silicone boots for a while now and no issues
