It's an old picture, but after all the work was done to the truck it looks pretty much the same as of the skids.

Sliders are home build by myself. They do work goo as any other sliders plus provide a full step board. They actually much better then stock running boards in terms of comfort step.

ARB bumper is a "Special Edition". It was build out of Land Cruiser and it was the only one in the world to be build for 4Runner, so in other words - unique.

Thanks for the info. The slider/step looks very much like the one ARB makes for other makes. Very nice. It looks a lot better than what i have on my G!

I like your undercarriage...everything is protected. Have you weigh your 4runner after the mods?? I wonder how much lbs you've gained from the extra armor.

Now it's 5520lbs.

Yes, thanks Lance.
It can be wheeled, just not finished.

My, how you've grown! Lookin' to be the first 2-time 4ROTM?

Sick setup! The gears will be a welcome change, given the size of the tires you're running.

The rear cbi will really complete the trucks back side.. can you say 5620lbs?

Uneek · 10-17-2007, 03:20 AM

That's one bad@$$ 4Runner Alex!!! Can't wait to see when it's completely done.

It way too optimistic. The rear bumper with tire carrier, hi-lift mount and 2 gas can holders is going to be 360 lbs loaded. So overall its will be 5800-5850lbs

scheisse!

Looking GREAT! Have you measured your clearance after all this? How does she feel on the road?

HOW DOES SHE FEEL OFF THE ROAD is the bigger question here!

again, good work. ( the ONLY thing id change is the stickers

)

I'd have to see the clearance.... Never looked at it with a measuring tape.

On the road it feels good for that amount of lift. Get me right, it would NEVER feel like stock after you lifting the truck. Believe me; I had spacers, OME and now this. But I was thinking it would be worse, so I'd saw it feels good. Why good and not great, hmm, probably because I can't corner it now as when I bought it from dealership with XREAS.
Off the road I didn't tried much, just locally to see if it rubs or whatever, so I don't know the limit yet, but so far, it just great what I can do. This lift allows me to think of places I'd never think before. Again the downside is the height, so need to be careful and do not exceed the off-climbers and roll-over it.

What sticker should I change?

RonMAIDEN · 10-18-2007, 01:59 PM

That's pretty much one of teh top 5 4th gens I've ever seen.
