Those pics should be taken down from the site. I want one now. Been browsing through some 80 builds with 40's lately which is certainly not helping. Glad to see you made the switch and you're liking it, cool pics.

Glad to hear from you buddy! Was just on here yesterday commenting on a T4R OG's build when he left his first comment in two years. Good to see you still getting after it. Hope you and the family are well brother!

I came back to by to get a couple references for when I built the trailer.

Been going strong in the 80 and of course have put my own personal touches on it since I've had it and wheeled the crap out of it, broken some stuff, laughed/cried, more curse words and have learned a lot and now trying to figure out which level I'm going to take it to next? 3link or full Wonton swaps LOL It took me a while to learn how to wheel it. Such a different animal from the 4runner bigger, a little clunkier but such a beast, stout AF and still amazed at some of the stuff I've wheel and gotten through. Still cruises nice on the highway doing 70-75 all day. Every vehicle has it's pros and cons though so trying to iron those out now..

Anyways thought id say what's up and throw a few pics up of the 80 Miss these Emoji's

Dude it never ends! That's happening this winter, 40's and 3 link Just trying to decide if I should go full retard and upgrade to a bigger/stronger front axle or just link it and wheel it

What's up buddy! I was actually going to hit you up this summer because there was a possibility of heading down to visit my sister and SC and was going to try to do a run at Uwharrie again, Andddd then the summer ended lol Yeah I haven't been as active on the forums as much either, also Muds just the the same Yeah man been trying to as much as I can but you know how that goes, Work,family, broken stuff... Anyways yeah everythings good man, Hope you and yours are doing well as well man!

Also this coming year we are going to plan a down south excursion. Probably head down and hit up Windrock TN for a few days and then loop around and back up and hit up Uwharrie for a day or so. I'll hit you and see if you guys are around and want to wheel..

Also just in case you guys get bored over here, here's my build thread over on Mudd. It's not much just some wheeling pics mostly and a little build progress here and there.

i went through your entire build recently - and am keeping an eye on your lexus' build too. sweet rides.

what do you do for work? between time and money - you would give some vw/audi enthusiasts a run for their money, and that group commits to the scene pretty hard too.

I came to this thread for snorkel info - didn't find much, but I did find a great read. Binged all 48 pages, and really enjoyed seeing the build progress, especially the side aspects like your welding work. Living in Michigan there isn't a lot of legit wheeling to do (we have tons of legal trails, but they're easy for the most part), but I'm definitely inspired by what you've been able to do with your rig. Thinking about hitting up the east coast (Rausch Creek and up) for a trip in a couple years thanks to you. I was really sad at the end to see that you sold the rig (same thing happened with my favorite Pathfinder build when I was in that community, darn it!), but I'm glad to see you stayed with a Toyota instead of switching over to a Jeep like too many misguided souls do. Your build has given me a lot of inspiration for lots of things, can't wait to fix my frame so I can move on to the exciting stuff and see what this platform can do for myself!

Grill looks great - nice work!

But also really love the black housing headlights. Those were opened up and painted inside? Can you point me to more info on what you did or purchased?

Appreciate the note - was sorta hoping he might still get notifications for the thread and maybe reply. Just getting into the 4Runner forums and liked his headlights - looks like the 'Joey' mod from the Audi community. Most of the headlight mods I've come across are too 'buggy' looking for my personal preference.

And dang - half gallon a day is indeed a lot of milk!! What goes well with that much milk. I'm assuming you weren't eating lots of cookies while working out!

bump for a sick build.
