Looking great.  You'll love selectable lockers, especially with your 4Runner being your every day driver.

You'll have to be careful because if you get too built a lot of the challenges off road go away.  There are times that I'm sure I'd have a lot more fun if I actually had to work to make it up something rather than just going pretty much anyway that I want.  There are certainly places that challenge me, but the more you build the fewer there are.

Treat the lockers as a recovery device, like a winch, you dont drive everywhere on the hook so dont lock up as soon as the tyres go in the dirt. Lock the diffs when it really wont go where you tell it. That way things remain challenging instead of just walking over things.

Refusing to fit in or comply.

Easy is not worth anything.
