Haven't had a great chance to test the panel gaps, shortly after I filled them I tore all the suspension off the 4Runner to update it. Just completed that work and dropped it off for an alignment. 4Runner got new front wheel bearings, Bilstein 5100 struts, all bushings replaced, lower control arm, alignment keys, upper and lower ball joints, rebooted CV axles, upgraded sway bar, Etc. In the back it got new control arm bushings for the four link, Springs, , upgraded sway bar, Etc.
I think one of the culprits for strange MPG was one of the cylinders on the passenger side caliper locked up. I got it unstuck enough to get it in for the alignment, I've got new rotors calipers Etc on order to refresh the front brakes.
All of that work made the aerodynamics work take a backseat temporarily.
Broke out the 40 ton homemade press brake last night, started messing around with some aluminum for the underbody skid plates / belly pan.
I also started welding together some homemade Rock sliders for the side rails, they will go out to exactly the tire width and will hold the tire spats behind the front tire and in front of the rear tires.
