Mine just arrived today. Bought them after attending the 2023 Toyota Jamboree in Gilmer TX. Excellent video, looks easy peazy. Thanks for taking the time to show the install. Nice work!
Can I recommend this video to Cali Raise? They literally sent videos of a user on how to install on a 5th gen. Your video is the most easiest one to follow
Great stuff. Looking forward to your feedback on the new head unit. Wondering if the sound quality is good with all the sound system upgrades you did previously.
How do you like Cali Raised Rock slider i been looking at them for my 4th gen 4runner and do you like the Circular cut outs in the Step plates and did you get the 20 degree or the 0 degree? @TRD JON
They look good but I’m disappointed about all those misaligned holes. It shouldn’t happen since we are paying lot of money just for some steel.. at least they should fit perfectly!
I disagree with that. Proper Jigs should give you a near perfect results if done right. My SSO sliders had 16 bots per side, if I remember correctly, and everyone of them lined up perfectly. So technically, they kinda fit. LOL
I see in some pics from their site where the hole groves stick up for better grip when you are standing on them. Is that an option? Meaning did you choose to have the grooves face down for yours?
Did you ever install the 2 additional brackets on the drivers side? Why did you opt to not install them? I installed mine and thought I didn't need those extra brackets so I left them off as well. But the passenger side has those 1/2 bolts as additional support I'm thinking about installing the brackets on the drivers side now to make the support even.
Hi Jon maybe you can help me out with this issue. I just did a 3in lift and need a running boards that hang lower and less tuck in to the 4runner for easy access to get in and out. I seen the power electricity one's but way to expensive. Would you have any ideas. Thanks again
Nice video Jon, I'm on my 4 th Tacoma and I am planning on my first 4 Runner =2020 and I have a question for you or your viewers ; most of the 2019 TRD OffRoad 4 runners that are coming into my local Toyota dealer here on the west coast are coming in with the sun roof option. I'm concerned with mechanical problems or water leaks and I really don't want a sun roof. Do you know of any problems with the sun roof on the 4 Runners ? thanks
Sadly it's getting to the point to where we'll have sun roofs in every car. I agree it's just another area water can leak in from. I hate sun roofs and don't even use them on my 19 TRD Pro 4runner.
You can get the regular TRD Off Road and not the premium and it shouldnt have the sun roof. I had one on my 95 and loved it, had no issues, but buddy has one on his 2003 and it leaks and doesn't work anymore. So I guess IMO its one of those things that could be hit or miss.
I have a 2016 Trail Premium which is exactly the same as the Off Road Pro (just a different name) and I've never had a problem with it. In fact if you open it and the back window, you get a real nice breeze and don't have to use the AC as much. Hope that helps
Jeff I have an 18 trd off-road premium w/ the sun roof. I love it and have had no issues in this year of ownership at all. I have a few buddies with them and they haven’t had issues either and their years range from 13-18. We all love it and especially the breeze that comes through when it and the rear window are open. But to each his own and you can’t go wrong either way
TRD JON there are two different rock sliders that Cali Raised offers. A step edition and a trail edition. caliraisedled.com/collections/2014-2020-toyota-4runner-rock-sliders
Absolutely useless garbage, I just spent close to $900 on these sliders. The holes mounted perfectly and all my frame holes were threaded from factory (2020trd offroad) but AMAZINGLY these sliders stick out LESS then the factory ones. How the hell you put your foot on these to get into your lifted 4runner??? Why did they design these like this? Unreal
I use mine as a step. Not an amazing step but it definitely works. Could try to sell on the marketplace if possible. Off road market is hot so I’m sure somebody will snag them.
