After owning my 4Runner for almost 2 years now and spending plenty on mods, i figured it's about time to start a build thread...
My main goal for my build was to make a comfortable and capable adventure rig to take me where ever I feel like going; whether it be camping, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking or exploring the mountains. This is also my daily driver so I’d like to keep it rather "practical", even though I really like some of the aftermarket bumper options.
Coming from a 2002 Isuzu Rodeo 4x4, I never bothered spending money to mod my truck since i was in college and didn’t want to put money into a truck that had high mileage… After graduating college and working a steady job for a while, I finally saved up enough money to buy a new car since my Isuzu was on it’s last legs… I decided on the 4Runner since i've always loved Toyota Tacomas/4Runners. I could not be happier with my decision!
