Thank you everybody for your input. Unfortunately, I had to go ahead and do the bumper because the original bumper was completely rusted out and I need a receiver in order to use my bike rack. My buddy and I built it so I ended up with approximately $200 invested in it after everything was said...

Thank you for the great explanation! I have loaded it down and it sags tremendously (it already sags as it is which is why I'm considering the lift). In the picture above, it has a set of 265/75r16's on it but they're worn out. Has anybody lifted just the back to give it a small rake when not...

For those of you running 265/75r16's or equivalent tires with a 3" lift, I have a few questions for you. What are the pros and cons of the lift other than ground clearance? From my understanding, most lift kits for our 4runners do nothing but bring your starting point in the travel arc down a...

I'm actually getting it built for the cost of material which comes out to right at $150 (about $25 more than getting strictly the receiver). It kind of helps when your uncle is a custom fabricator for a local custom offroad shop.

True, but I'm also going to be doing a lift within the next 6 months and I need the bumper/reciever now for hunting reasons (I put it off too long). Will the bags also work with a 3" lift? I haven't found anything that says they will.

I picked up a 96 4runner in the middle of summer as a project/hunting vehicle and it has slowly turned into my daily driver. With the rear bumper being completely rusted out and me needing a receiver, I started building a bumper for it. This leads to my question. The bumper is going to be adding...

Hey everybody. Now before I get started on the subject, keep in mind that I have looked and looked for answers to these questions and so far have come up blank. So, here goes nothing. When buying a high mileage V8 4Runner, what should I look out for? I know the motors can last forever with...

What year is your T4R? If it's a 05 or newer, you will have to change the ECU. Also, if you don't build the bottom end, I wouldn't run over 5psi max. Keep in mind that you will still notice a decent gain at 5psi though.

Hey everyone. I've been looking for a 06-08 TR4 V8 4WD for awhile now and haven't found exactly what I want. I was looking online today and found one locally that is pretty much everything that i want minus the mileage. It's an 08 with around 162K miles for right at 14k. Is this a good deal...

Looks good! ~Subscribed~

Why are the prices for a good 4runner so high? For example, I found one that NADA's and KBB's for right around 14k, but the owner is asking around 18k for it. I understand the whole supply and demand deal, but asking that much more for a vehicle that is a daily driver and doesn't have anything...

Yay! 15 posts down, countless more to go. So, I’m looking into purchasing my first 4runner. I’m coming from a 98 Silverado 1500 extended cab and am wanting more room. I rarely use the bed for anything besides taking my mountain bike to and from the trails, so that is no issue. My issue comes...

Welcome!

That's awesome! Thank's for sharing.

I like it.
