    Thanks, it will make a world of difference when I build a bumper later! Really need to toss the body lift and do the suspension.

    LonestarrunnerTX 1987 "ROLL TIDE" Build

    This week I repainted the grill and badge, I went ahead and got all the new grill clips from the Toyota dealership, I think they ran $1.95 each. After I reinforced the front crossmember and did some mods to the old smitty front bumper. I plan on building new tube bumpers for the front and rear...

    Thanks, I think so also, the 33x10.50s look perfect on the 1st gen. I will be posting several pictures over the next few days.

    The po swapped a low mileage 22r out of an 84 hilux into the 87, she runs very well after adding the weber carb, I am located in Corpus Christi and the Spring area of Houston, just depends on what time of year haha. I am slowly getting it the way I want it!

    I have made a lot of progress over the past several weeks. I put all new brakes on the front and back. Replaced the seals on the hubs and replaced all the diff fluids. I installed a new fuel pump and brand new weber carb. After doing research the 22r that was swapped into the 87 was from a 2wd...

    Finished the tires today. Sprayed 3 coats of primer, 3 coats of new ford grey and 2 coats of clear coat. I am liking the look, reminds me of the steelies on the FJ40s.

    While waiting for the carb I also picked up some old steelies off a 1991 Toyota pick up. I am selling the wide 33x12.50 and mounting 33x10.50. I am just not a fan of the wide look. After getting the wheels I had them sandblasted and have done 3 coats of primer using great dane. It is some great...

    After putting in a new battery and terminals, I checked the timing and checked fluids. I got her started and found a bad exhaust leak at the base of the exhaust manifold. I decided to tackle this while I wait for my Weber carb to come in. I plan to do new exhaust down the road so did a temporary...

    I am calling this the Roll Tide build because I picked her up in Alabama. Here is the day I picked it up.

    Hey everyone, I have been lurking on here and getting some ideas. I recently bought a 1987 4runner and will be doing a overland type build. This thread will be picture heavy!
