Haha. I've driven it short distances on the road but with these stickies it's not fun especially in the summer. If I put different tires on it, it would be fine up to maybe 55 or so past that steering may not be much fun. It's not a race car and it rarely gets much above 5 mph even if I hit the rev limiter on occasion.

Toyota should have had your ride in the Toyota booth at SEMA under "Nothing is Impossible with a 4Runner!"

I might be wrong, but there is no structural strength for rack in the middle of the roof where you have your posts.

It's all coming together now.

Below you can see the 8 points where the cage bolts through the roof and is sandwiched between two pieces of 0.188" steel. The B and C plates will be tied to the internal cage. The exo A pillar already mounts to the frame and the D will also go to the frame.


That bar on the bottom of the windshield was a pain. In the end we tried three times and nailed it for the third time. The first time had three bends and hit wipers badly. The second half 5 bends and barely hit the wiper. The final and beautiful work done has 7 bends and follows the lines on the hood beautifully while staying close to the windshield. Who knew the wiper arm is steel but the mount to the motor is cast aluminum. Had it been steel we would have modified the arm.

Finally done and put back together. I hope to have a video of this up in the next few weeks showing everything.

Should have it back out wheeling later this month or early February for lots of great videos.

Taillight replacement

Taillights, am I the only one who breaks them? I got tired and still have two left one brand new that apparently nobody wants.

In any case no more. We have made a new piece that attaches to the existing taillight mounting holes. It will be fully welded and ground down in the next day or so and I will paint them to match the body.

We could have welded them to the body but that's far too much work for very little to zero extra gain.
