Magict4r newbie build
Started out with a 01 4runner i got from my uncle. bone stock with the infamous straberry milkshake. I flushed the tranny, put in a new radiator and hoped for the best. On my forst trip out, i got her stuck on beach, 4 hours later and we got her out...half way home the tranny went on me, and i had to tow her the rest of the way home. Long story short, she's got a new tranny, 3inch rough country suspension lift, diff drop, flowmasters super40 exhaust, l.e.d headlights, stock wheels painted flat black, with 285 75 16 coursair axt's. More to come, bare with me, this is just the begining.

Why bother to black out the license plates on the last pic? Or did you change the plates for the third time?
Nice looking truck btw.
