All weather Husky floormats and Weathertech rear cargo mat - 4Runner and GX460 fitment

 Now for the easiest install yet! Husky molded all weather mats. They are made to fit perfectly and not move around much, they even have the mat clip holes and cover the rear center hump.

These are mandatory for me as my wife is none too pleased when I come back from a day offroad or after a week worth of hauling the kids all over. The amount of dirt and leaves drug onto the carpet adds up. 

These mats are better than even the Lexus versions as the molded shape "catches" the grime and typically keeps the carpets very clean. 

I had just ordered the front and rear Husky mats for about $160 online when I saw a local ad for 5th gen 4Runner Husky mats. Well, these are interchangeable with the GX460 so I jumped on it. 

When I showed up he gave me the rear Weathertech cargo mat for free! 
Sometimes you have a good day....

These scrubbed up factory fresh with dawn soap and a brush. Good to go!

Less weight - Remove 3rd row seats and DIY Cargo floor for GX460 or 4Runner.

Image
I revised the rear setup to give me more options and storage here: https://nomadsgx460.blogspot.com/2022/08/more-versatile-rear-storage-drawers-3rd.html I won't be using the 3rd row electric seats so I pulled them right away. 127lbs of associated seats and brackets gone! Heavier than I thought!  I also removed the large class IV hitch which was another 85lb or so. With 200lb less weight in the rear and 6 inches lower trunk floor I have something a little more useable and versatile.  In order to finish it all off I built a cargo floor with locking tie down points. I used much of what I had available and only bought what was necessary.  The silver you see is two layers of my favorite -budget- sound deadener which is "PEEL N SEAL" window seal. Look it up. It's only $20 for a roll of foil backed butyl. It deadens the resonance of the steel panels. Same as Dynamat. I used two layers as I heard some more road noise without all the seats and carpet. I also added it to the

New (old) shoes = Sequoia 17 wheels and "Pizza Cutter" tires!

Image
I tried the Rust-Oleum Metallic "Oil Rubbed Bronze" paint to see what it looks like. Figured I'd share what it looked like. It does a good job of looking like some of the other bronze wheels available but I actually preferred the satin black. OEM Sequoia wheels, poorly painted when I picked them up Spend $1300 on wheels? Spend another $1200 on tires? No thanks. Not this guy...  After replacing my JK Wrangler with this  GX460  trying to make it more of what the "Land Cruiser Prado" was made to be in all other countries.  It looks ok from a distance but thick paint is sagging in areas. Yes, this has way better tech, a better engine, more comfortable interior, quieter more powerful engine, and more, that the Jeep JK didn't have, but it lacks in the looks department (and, as Jeepers say ad nauseum - no removable top or doors).  After chemical stripping. The aluminum surface is perfect So I want less "Latte Lounger", and more "Capable Cruiser"

Cheap Overland Table - DIY - $35 Jeep shelf - fits GX460 or GX470 with small mods!

Image
I was going to build a tailgate table until I saw a 24x12 Jeep table for only $35 on ebay.   Well, it was certainly worth a try at that price as the wood and hardware would certainly be more. I could modify it a bit and gain the ability to strap molle bags onto it to store important items. Part of my trunk redo is to make organized storage for little things I like to keep in the back, tools or supplies, first aid etc. I could manage with a smaller table for the cost savings. I did buy a rivnut tool from Harbor Freight for $25 but I wanted one for a while and can use it on other things. This might also be a good size for GX470 doors. I was surprised at the quality feel of the table when I got it. Stronger than I thought it would be. I figured I may need to weld stiffeners etc.  The table is designed to be able to have molle bags strapped to it, and then fold down, but this would leave the straps on the table top. Not good. I flipped the table upside down so the flat surface was facing o
