Looks real good. Nice work:cool:

SCH3CT3RSHR3DD3R, First thing to check would be spark plugs and wires. Good maintenance. Unless you changed them recently, do those and then report back.

Bummer, its on my list so I'll keep an eye out. If you get get any blems in (bumper reinforcement), hit me up!

Any sales coming up? I need a front frame support for my '90 4runner and AO bumper:D I'm in Denver btw Love my bumper!

What I've been up to:

Gotta say...I had the intermittent no-start issue. KidV, RAD, you guys are awesome. Got the relay, wired it up, BAM. No more issues. I did end up getting a brand new ignition and replaced starter contacts just for a little extra insurance. Now I really need to fix some of the crappy...

Currently welding up the rear passenger quarter panel underneath where the wheel well is. Already did other side. Finishing this one and then 85% done! Then on to the front!

I think the 94+ runners had the extra brace in the doors for better collision protection after the SUV collision tests showed that there wasn't much protection at all. Not sure how much better protection the new ones offered. The 90-91s had the rear tire swing. I've got a '90 and it did not...

Most 4runners I see around here (Denver, CO) have 200k+ on them (including both of our 3rd gens:D) and asking prices are still anywhere between 4k-6k. Nice, clean +elocker varients go even higher. Never even seen a 4runner for sale with that low of miles. I would think easy 10k out here in...

Oh heck man I just saw that your in Ft Collins! I'm in Denver. Right on!

You've got good plans so far - good luck! I've got my own '90 4runner on a 'slow build' as well...reaaaally slow:) But its all in the journey, right:rofl:

Wow, that's terrible man. So sorry about the loss. I have seen pretty handy folks to complete body swaps...maybe that is an option? In any case, dang man, sorry. :faint:

Okay guys, I'm pulling the headliner out of my '90 in preparation for welding in a new windshield channel (and because its filthy) and I'm a bit stumped. Got most of the trim out of the way, got the actual visors off, but I can't figure out how those little securing tabs (that keep the visor...

Good deal. That looks like something beyond just what a powerwash would do, am I wrong? So maybe the powerwash had little to nothing to do with it? I hear ya on that though. My BIL tried to get me to powerwash the engine bay of my '90 22RE and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Plus I...

Wow, what hassle! But sounds like you are getting it all worked out. That first pic you showed honestly didn't look bad...new tailgate, new bumper, whala! I'm going to be switching out my regular tailgate for a rear-tire-carrier tailgate on my 2nd gen here at some point when I do the...
