What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Nice! I was looking at the stage 1 kit from Eibach, but after seeing this you got me thinking stage 2. How's the ride?

 

Any info on your setup? And you're right about the crazies. I'm dealing with insurance about my 4runner getting totaled.

 

Nice! I've had the

$200 Rexing V1P Pro Dual 1080p Full HD Front and Rear 170° Wide Angle Wi-Fi Car Dash Cam with Built-in GPS Logger, Supercapacitor, 2.4" LCD Screen, G-Sensor, Loop Recording, Mobile App, Parking Monitor

Rexing V1P Pro for a few years now and it's been great. I actually put mine on the opposite side, so it's hidden from my view behind the mirror. If you can get the rear camera for it, I think it could be a good thing to have too. I feel a lot better having front and back covered in case something were to happen.

 

just got these in today's mail, American Flag, American/Police Flag

 

I was going to put it on the other side, but I couldn't get to the buttons as easily. Not that I need them often. But, I did like that it was less visible on the left side of the mirror. I'm looking for a USB plug with a right angle instead of the one coming straight out. Not easy to find. This will have to do for now.

 

What do you think of the exhaust? Had a MBRP on my 2017 and it had a terrible drone.

 

I used the dongle/adapter from Dongar Technologies. It just plugs into the back of the mirror. Very easy setup. I think the adapter was only about $30. See the links below. The camera is on sale right now as a Prime deal if you have Amazon Prime.

Yea that's kinda what I was thinking

 

I'm a retired cop and here in NJ you can't deface license plates, not sure what the law is in other states, but do yourself a favor and delete that picture

 

The ride is great. I used to have the 6112’s up front but it’s so much smoother with the eibachs. The adjustability is great. Takes me 30 minutes to completely change the front ride height. The rxt leaf pack is great too.

 

Thanks

I wouldn't call that defacing. It doesn't look that different from the black and yellow. You're probably fine especially if it gets a little dust or dirt on it.

 

like I said I'm not sure of the laws in other states but if the law is similar to the law in my home state, that plate is altered from its original state

 

Yep, not sure of the laws elsewhere but I'm in NE, and if the plate is altered in appearance in any way from the way it looked when it was issued from the DMV you'd definitely get pulled over and a ticket.

 

Just recently NJ changed the law....It was if any part of the plate was covered even from a frame it was a violation.....now it's ok

 

It's still legible. Law enforcement would be better off policing distracted and aggressive drivers than drivers with customized license plates or plates with custom frames, but I digress.

 

True, and I agree. However, it’s California. So…if the state is not getting the money from a custom plate, it’s not legal. That’s pretty much how the government here works.

 

Switching tent vehicles. Wife wants her 4runner "clean and swift" to the taco you go tent!

 

Was she concerned about attracting squatters?

Imagine leaving for work in the morning only to find people living on top your truck. Probably couldn't even have them removed from the tent.

 

I’ve always wondered if NJ do you have to have the front plate on?
