99’ Mid-Trvl Beast!! Tampa, FL—$25K

1999 TOYOTA 4RUNNER SR5 HIGHLANDER
(SC'd, Lifted, Dual Cased, Dual Locked, Geared, Armored, 5Spd (R452d) and more...)

This is and was my daily driver for the past 20+ years. Purchased in Colorado Springs in 2001 with approx 20K miles on it. The rest are on me! I have driven, camped, 4-wheeled and crawled all over the country! This rig is super capable but thanks to the Sonoran Steel suspension is comfy on the highway as well. It is one of the most highly modified mid-travel 3rd Gen 4Runners you will find and it is in amazing shape. This will crawl up a mountain, and be a commuter (thanks to the news 5spd gearing!). It looks great, is a blast to drive and honestly I am sad to see her go but my kids are bigger and we needed a truck for towing and I have a FJ40 for trail fun these days! So....this girl needs to go to someone who can love her for what she is and put her to work! Comprehensive details in the build thread below....major modifications listed below. I am listing here...then putting it up on BAT.

Tons more pictures and info on my build page below.
