I knew I would be bad at updating this thread... haha. So some updates. Lift/level kit is on. I went with Bilstein 5100s all the way around and 1” Cornfed rear spacers. I was nervous going into it because of all the posts about KDSS nightmares, but there is really nothing to worry about. It went...

I’ve been working on a few little mods while this thing is sitting in my driveway. Apparently if you buy a car from a private seller in SC and you live in NC, there is no way to get a temporary tag. You just have to wait to get the title and go to the DMV. The first thing I did was tackle the...

It’s a 2000 7.3! I added the 2006 front end and 2008 back end. My plans are to lower it a couple inches and get rid of the stack, it’s not as cool as it used to be haha. It’s been a great truck though, I’ll never get rid of it!

Thanks for all the pointers!! I love the white too, white with the black wheels and all just looks so clean! I’ll be putting a lot of road miles on this one, but I want to set it up for light trails and camping. We have a trail system nearby here in NC called Uwharrie OHV, it has everything from...

I’m not new to the 4Runner world, but I did unfortunately get away from it for a while. I had an 87 and then a 96 SR5 V6 manual transmission that I loved... but I sold it a couple years ago. The itch finally got too strong and I drove down to Charleston, SC a few days ago and picked up this 2014...

Ok let's see if I can catch up on the updates. The lightbar and ditch lights are mounted: I also made up a Bussman fuse panel and mounted it under the hood. It was a nightmare trying to find somewhere to mount it, I ended up moving the throttle control and some other stuff to wedge it in on...

More updates! -swapped pretty much all of my lights to LED -ordered LED taillights -changed headlights and corners to black/clear and put in HIDs -ordered Bussman fuse panel and OTRATTW switch panel -ordered 20" single row LED lightbar and two LED pods with windshield mounts from CBI offroad...

Unfortunately that isn't my trailer, I wish it was! It is my buddy's that he bought to match his truck, we have twin trucks except his is a 6.0 dually. But yeah so far the 3rd gen club has been much more enjoyable for me than the 1st gen club!

I started my Toyota adventures a few years ago when I picked up an 86 regular cab pickup for $800. The only thing not dented, rusted or broken on it was the steering wheel. I dumped a ton of money and time into it, trying to make the awesome flatbed rock crawler I had in my head come to life...

Well... I tried to put in my sweet new OTRATTW Elocker switch today, but I ordered the wrong one so that didn't work out. So I decided to make a couple decals. Cutom "SRD" decals for the sides: My version of the Mall Crawler decal (sorry for the crappy cell phone pic):

So I bought my 96 with a retrofitted Elocker and Inchworm harness already installed. It has a plain old metal toggle switch with a light beside it to control the Elocker. When I ordered all of my other switches from OTRATTW, I bought a new Carling rocker for the Elocker. Today when I tore the...

I don't know how I have never stumbled across this forum until now, but it is pretty awesome, so I signed up. I'm 24, just graduated from UNCC and work as a firefighter/EMT and also run my own sign/decal business. My first 4Runner is an 87 that I bought a couple years ago with hopes to turn it...
