What Did You Do With Your Rig Today?

[CR-Venturer]

Started polishing off the corrosion and painting my wheels. The spare is the guinea pig. Frustratingly, my rattle can ran out of gas way before it ran out of paint.

Here is the link to the milspec ones:

As for accessories, you are better off having a distribution block than trying to run multiple lines to the battery.

Rock on brother... just seen too many people try to shove each accessory wire into the terminal clamp connections. That always ends in shorts.

Yea! I can finally post something to this thread!
Today I finished removing the Xreas system and Sport Steps from my 06 4Runner! getting ready to install the Sliders!
Hoping to put the finishing touches on the Drawer system in the coming weekends.

With a little help from my Dad we got my RCI Step Sliders installed today.

Yep I used to be that way. After some digging I made my own relatively simple solution and utilized an empty cubby with a switch panel

Give Alex at American Overland Expedition in Laguna Hills a call....they fab some really nice stuff at very reasonable prices. I told them what I wanted and they did better than I expected.

Even with only one coat on the front dry, it looks way better than the original silverish finish. I didn't go crazy with the buffing or sanding, because this is a very old vehicle that's going to spend a lot of time off road, but if I really took the time, dismounted the tire and had a few sanding tools, I could probably make the wheels look amazing. Quite impressed with this paint, actually. I plan to do 3 coats front and back total on each wheel, which I think should lend quite a bit of protection and corrosion resistance. I'll post again when the first wheel is completely done.

View attachment 67319 I broke down and got a dang Trasharoo! I seriously was impressed with the quality of the product, highly recommend it based off of initial impressions.

Another update...albeit, not today but earlier in my Canyon ownership...

Installed a concealed single row 30" light bar behind the upper 3-bar GMC grill.

Super clean install! Looks great!

Got some new tires, replaced my transmission gasket, then ICM, ignition coil, fuel filter, some fuel line & plugs... all to try and get rid of a gremlin killing the engine when it is at full running temperature. I think I got it, but it made for a long weekend.View attachment 67402View attachment 67403View attachment 67404View attachment 67405View attachment 67406
