As the title states, ha I bought this my senior year of high school as a all stock 1999 SR5 with no intention of wheeling it at all (I never even knew of this wheeling community). My dad had always had Yota trucks and neighbor had a 4runner, so I knew once I saw one I had to jump on it. Tomorrow I've had it for 3 years and its come a long way and still has a lot to go. Thanks to everyone on here who I'm sure I've bugged with questions along the way!
I bought my 4runner with 126,000 miles on it, I currently have 181,000. Right after buying it, I replaced the exhaust, put refurbished OEM rims on it, and found a OEM sport hood for it. I have only been modifying it for the past year or so, but here's my list of current and future mods. If anyone has any suggestions, please leave them below.

nice looking rig. really like the stuff ya done to it so far. really like to find the sport hood and factory front skid like your's now has.

[SR5Runner97]

Your hood. I've got a 97 4runner and I love the sport hood (I don't have one), even though in most cases it doesn't do anything beneficial. Where did you get it? How much? Did you fabricate it yourself?

[JWaldz]

Good looking rig man.. Stay on top of that rust!!
