I've found a truck I really want, willing to deal on mine. Mildly Built IFS 1997 4Runner For Trade - Pirate4x4.Com Bulletin Board

5.29's and 35's would be good. I'm on 35's and 4.56's and couldn't see just going to 4.88.

Did they make your truck enter big gay truckland too? What's the frame/roof height and tire size?

I cut the shock off of the spring on my stock struts to get the top plate off...and the above procedure seems rather questionable to me! :hiding: Do some work with a phone book and you can find a shop that will assemble your struts for $30.

Apparently the axles on those Rovers are really weak, along with the diffs and all their other general unreliability. :So Gay: Is this Rubicon run going to be an open run? Any ideas on a date? :cheers:

I did front and rear bumpers and sliders for just over $1000. I believe it was $1095 if I'm remembering what I paid for the sliders right. I could have saved a bunch of money by doing a more basic rear bumper mine ended up eating up a lot of tube. I could of done it for less than half that if...

4Runner ABS sucks, leafs work and they're cheap! Or you could link it and have 2010+ technology and whatever brakes you want. Never mind, I just saw you've got an 01.

If you're so broke you can't eat at Crapplebees how the hell are you going to afford to mod a new rig? Keep modding your 4Runner, you'll save money in the long run.

You're totally right brah, this one time a Rascal just went crazy on this old lady at the mall and my tube bumper did nothing to protect the front of my rig. :bash:

Skids, sliders and an Aussie Locker,:dammit:.

Judging by my attempts to sell and watching other similarly built rigs for sale threads you will have a hard time getting anywhere close to the money you have put into your truck out of it. Good luck.

6+ hours in 4Low doesn't seem to do anything except make my gas gauge go down. :banana:

Probably because he wants to sell it, 13 year old highly modified vehicles aren't really selling these days. Especially when people try to get every dime they sank into their build out of the trucks. :bigok:

Your truck would make it just fine, you on the other would most likely be raped, murdered and raped again for your truck. Which would be pressed into service as the local warlord's daily driver. :hiding:
