What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It’s the Cali raised and blue overland I think

 

I like the efficiency you have keeping the tape measures open. Saves time for the next measurement.

 

To infinity and beyond!

 

thank you… stock suspension, 265/70/17 KO2’s… they really filled it out nicely.

 

Where you snag this? also do you have the thread on this handy?

 

Thats a 4runner outlet. They come with a 12v plug normally, but you can swap it out for the dual usb.

These look massive compared to whats on the truck. As soon as the custom leaf packs get here it will all go on. The diff drop kit is here just in case, doubt ill need it, but i figured id rather have it and not need it.
Im only going for a 2 inch lift. Fyi folks, this was about the same as the lift you can get from the dealer price wise. Spc uppers are here too.
No clue why they posted twice. Oh well.

 

Added a dual USB port to my DMM for a cleaner look. It was more work than I initially thought since the USB port wasn't quite as small as I had hoped it would be, but I would say it came out to my liking.

 

Installed the

$259 Voswitch UV100 8 Gang Programmable Switch Panel Power Control System for Truck UTV Side by Side Boat 12V Battery Use

Voswitch UV100. This Unit is very over built and easy to install. Great alternative to the Spod cost wise.

 

That is certainly better than wires dangling in front of the stereo.
I installed a surface mount USB on the right side of my RAM mount connected to battery power always.

 

Nice! I thought about going to the battery but decided to just use power from the cigarette lighter since I don't charge anything with the vehicle off anyway, plus I was lazy to run more wire. Yeah, the dangling cables were annoying and they would tap my screen and change the song/screen all the time.

 

Very nice! Looks Factory.

 

Ceramic tint all around except the front doors are hybrid. Installer said it would match the factory rear tint better and still block heat.. I could tell the truck cooled off faster today and you couldn't feel the heat as much.

 

is that from tacogarage? don't remember them coming with a provision for usb ports.

Post #8 on this thread shows the white and blue wires you'll tap into in order to get the 120v inside the cab. They're on the plug going into the inverter, which is under the center console. I believe blue goes to the big slot of the outlet and white goes to the smaller slot, I really don't remember. I used a T30 torx bit to remove the bed outlet and copied the way it was wired up. For the ground I just ran a wire from the ground prong of the outlet to a grounded piece of metal in the truck.

120v outlet

(It's labeled by Toyota as a "12v outlet" for some reason but it's the 120v household style outlet

85530-35050-C0


Bezel/plate

85536-35020


I don't have a part number for the harness to plug into the 120v outlet, I just made my own by modifying some small terminals. For the USB ports I just spliced into the 12v power for the ports inside the console.


As for cutting the hole, I used post #7 on here as an example. It looks like he cut his with a dremel or saw and jb welded the bezel in. I used a really sharp razor knife and trimmed and filed until mine hole was just the right size for the bezel to snap in without glue. Any method should work fine was long as the hole isn't cut too big.

I used the flush mount usb port from Expedition Essentials. It's a little pricey for what it is and I still had to modify the trim/bezel but it is the only one that seemed to have the USBs on a small enough pc board to fit right above the stereo.

What's going to make you decide if you use the diff drop kit or not?

 

How do you like them? I'm 6'2" and I worry that I may be a little too tall for them.

 

got the GOAT armor out from storage, cleaned it up and put it on.
