With the amount of wiring projects I have been doing my test leads suck so found this retractable gizmo that should make some projects easier

Cool
Be warned that if you're measuring resistance, those alligator clamps can show up as a few ohms. Don't waste an afternoon chasing ghosts. I'm amazed how many electrical engineers at work show up and get all confused when a meter reads 5 ohms instead of short circuit.

Oh dang, serious donut craving now.

The husband used a baseball bat to clearance his Volvo PV fenders, but that's not a 4Runner at all. Maybe a lift is merited.

Haha, the 81 has been buried in there for almost 2 years, lost motivation on it when i found the cracked frame and picked this up. Had a few people look at it and 3 deals fall through to sell the shell. I just need to pull it out and get rid of it
