New pictures....

Was a busy weekend...
Added the spidertrax spacers, and the 285/75R16 tires. Coopers are not my favorites, but 3 of them came with the rolled parts truck, and the 4th one was cheap.
Probably will run these for a year or so, then go to BFG MT's.

At some point, the running boards will come off after I have built some sliders. The Wife is only 5' 2" and needs the step to get in.

Come on, I know you're new but another member's build thread isn't the place to ask a random question - especially when it's not even the same gen 4runner! Go to the 2nd gen page and then search "3" body lift".. or go to 4crawler.com. Welcome to T4R.

Still a nice Highlander topdown!

Thanks for the recient comments guys

looks nice but id ditch that brush guard also you done the e locker mod yet ?

Um...other than the factory E-locker it came with, what E-locker mod you talking about?
The brush guard should be gone by next weekend. A guy from Tampa is coming to buy it.
The ARB from the rolled '96 is going on it instead.

I like your build thread, it was quick and your 4r looks good!!

Betcha can't stop tho!!!!!!!


Never stop, never give in, or something like that
It does go quick when there is a lifted parts truck in the back yard

I do love it, but the coopers that came on the rolled truck are fubar. They are splitting and ride like crap.
I am trying to find some more used, but good 285/75r16's in similar type tread...having a hard time finding a good deal though...
It's not like this is the only vehicle I have to drive. I can wait....

Doh!

Nope, not yet.

I remember reading about it at some point....long before I even had an E-locker, so I never really paid much attention.

How involved is it to make the mod? If I remember correctly, it is just jumping or cutting a wire in the 4x4 ECU, or something like that.
