Do it! You won't regret it! The only issues I ran into was the wiring harness from the tailgate I got was cut super short so I had to splice in a section and run it in inside to keep the window from hitting it when it's all the way down. Also, something I didn't think about, but it won't...

Wanted to share some updates... I jumped on a factory rear tire carrier that was posted in a facebook group. the guy was incredibly cool and gave me the carrier and the tailgate for free. With work being slow I managed to get it mounted up. Not the hardest job just time consuming. Swapping the...

Picked it up from local truck stop. They are packed full of CB goodies. I will do a v2 soon, the antenna isn’t long enough to get over the roof rack so reception is spotty when I’m leading. I like the fact that it comes out of the factory radio antenna hole for the aesthetics but I worry it...

I have a ‘95 2nd gen with a 3.4 and a 5 speed. Last piece of the puzzle is a rear locker. Located in western TN.

Looks good! I just wish my cruise control actually worked!

It's been over a year since my last post. The truck has been doing great, reliable and still putting a smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel. I picked up a new daily, '17 Volkswagen GTI which has turned 4Runner into the weekender/spare family vehicle. BUT, it's time she gets some...

Originally it was a 3.0 with an auto, now it's a 3.4 with a 5 speed. Night and day difference with the added torque and HP. Truck gets up to speed quick and comfortably holds it on the highway without having to down shift. A no brainer swap if you have the time. You can snag a 3.4 for any junk...

Havent posted in a while. Here she is this morning. '95 3.4l going strong, new tires are in the mail.

Nice choice of rear springs, i'm running the same ones. They ride a little stiff but with a bit a weight in the back, they really arn't bad at all. Huge help when the dirt bike is hooked up to the hitch and the truck still rides level! I have them paired with some 1.5'' ball joint spacers in the...

More wrenching but all for the greater good. We planed a 3 day weekend for to the Ozarks but some much needed maintenance and modifications had to be done first. Finally added the 1 1/2 in. ball joint spacers from 4Crawler Offroad with new upper balljoints. While I was in there, Popped in some...

Did a little spit polish to my 3.4. Anyone running skid pans and or know a good solution to not having wheel liners. My engine bay seems to be prone to getting super dirty. Befor: After:

Sliders are on! Went with the 4x Innovations weld on sliders. I had mocked these up in the past but my little 110 wouldn't cut the mustard and had to borrow a friends 220. I painted them Black but that didn't last long...

Over due on posting something, Got the CB For the trails wired up and installed. This being a daily, I tried to make the cleanest mount I could. I picked up a little cheepo-depo Cobra Ultra 3 from my local Walmart (hate that place) for $40 and a decent antenna from a truck stop just on the out...

I ran my CB in my Center ash tray and the antenna out the factory antenna hole on the finder. My antenna didn't work so i didn't mind taking it out. Also, I just use Bluetooth for music. Ill have a right up on this on my build thread soon. This set up works fine on trails and I've notices some...

Thank you, they are just generic ones from Auto Zone. They were $10 a pop, I'm sure they would be cheeper online but I needed the instant gratification. I forgot to mention that the box itself is held in by a couple of turn buckles which makes it relatively easy to remove and very stable. I'm...
