Been awhile since an update so here goes:

Put about 5k and one rotation on the Pros this summer, they have performed flawlessly in the mild trail runs/highway miles/camp spot exploration. My sweet spot for optimal ground contact is 28 in the front and 23 in the back unloaded. They are wearing evenly but can ride a little warbly in the cold mornigs. Also a tad loud but nothing to complain about. MPG has taken a hit, hovering around 16 currently. In the process of dialing back the timing to the sweet spot by feel/consumption.

I have used my RTT seen in previous pictures about 20 times. I love how easy it is to fold out, and have had some of the best nights of sleep of my life inside it in the woods. I have decided to part ways with it due to the accumulation of condensation with the temperature swings and humidity up here. Breaking camp early in the morning with a wet RTT, plainly sucks. I have a nice north face ground tent and will work something out for sleeping in the back of the runner.

I love my awning, everyone needs to get an awning. Super handy, super easy, and for something so minimal plays a huge role in camp comfort. Get one. Tepui is nice, but I did have one of my poles already fail and had to be taped. I would go with ARB if I did it again.

No major hiccups on the 3.0 front and the OEM suspension bits are holding together nicely. The 4crawler rear pucks and new moog springs do the job nicely of holding quite a lot of weight in water/gas/wood/supplies/gear.

The TG winch had the bolt that was holding the cable fall out on my foot while doing tree work. Luckily it wasn't under load. I bought some hockey tape from sportsman's warehouse and taped the length of the bare spool then re-tied with a clove hitch. The winch has worked great, and the control box can be seen mounted in the grill.

For the future, I am thinking a budbuilt full-length skid and some TG rocksliders. Rolling around the idea of a safari snorkel; they are fairly ubiquitous and I have seen only a few online. Maybe go with some 31 ko2's for winter on a set of LC rims I scored off of CL. I still need to get some tabs mounted on the bumper to bolt on my fogs - that will happen sooner than later with winter coming on up here.

I would be interested to see what you do have in yours @Teerapong . That dash cluster is fairly standard in the US. Have you tried ebay?

Update pictures from a road trip taken this fall. Recently put the 30's back on for the winter, gotta say I love having all the powerband wake up.

I started putting more time into my 95 3.0 SR5 and I came across your feed. I’d have to say I spent the time reading every posting on this feed. This is a great build and has come very far from a frozen motor in a semi rusted rig on someone’s property. Great job man! Keep it up

Good looking rig yourself sir. I love the Cinderella story about it. Very cool. Us 2nd genners are a dying breed. I still argue they are tied for best looking all around body with 5th gens. But I'm terribly biased.

They really are a beautiful body style, definitely comparable to the 5th gens! Keep up the good work 4reak show.

Shocks and Spring

@O.A.B.K

Where did you get your KYB shocks, and was your a 2" lift, or stock height?

I'm looking to do a 2" lift to support the OEM 17" TRD Pro wheels.

Got the shocks (+2) through a local foreign parts supplier. Anyone who carries kybs or can order them should be able to source them for you. Pro 17’s would be slick, I ran a set of fj cruiser steelies in 17 and was pretty happy with the look and ride. Good luck!

Just saw this build, beautiful truck!

I go back home to Fairbanks every couple years, and we usually end up traveling south and camping along the way - if you don’t mind I’ll shoot you a PM next time we’re passing through Palmer!

!

I just picked up my first (finally) 4Runner last week. She's a 95 also. Your rig has pretty much helped me make my bumper upgrade decision. Unless you would advise otherwise, of course.
