home on the ridge

hi folks,
recently purchased 4Runner. swapped out the old shocks for a set of KYB monomax (rides really nice), dipped the wheels, tinted the windows, replaced the old rusty rear bumper (primed and painted inside) and added some weathertech mats for now. next on the to do list is changing the timing belt and possibly adding some aux driving lights. car is super clean and planning on keeping it until the wheels fall off or mine whichever first. cheers

Swapped out my 891's for Toytec's Superflex coils. Gained about 1.5" and rides just about the same thanks to its progressive design

Yes I need to change my OME N86 rear shocks twice in 4years and its busted again. I wheels twice in Raush Creek and one in private land...it's sucks. Yeah I decided to get rid of my OME 891's I'm ordering Rear Long Travel Bilstein 5100 Series (9602R703) with Toytec Superflex rear coils. I'm ordering tomorrow

Sorry no 3rd gen's, but the guys/gals at CT4WD just got back from Moab. Here is a short clip to get all of you stoked for the upcoming TW meet:



As always, credit to "Freeze" for creating/filming/editiing the clip.

The dogs were played out after just one day. Need to get them in the wild more often

Finally got my satoshi grill done

I've been fighting my grill for quite awhile until I was happy enough to mount it to the truck. I might change out the circle Toyota emblem for the written Toyota emblem that is on the lift gate and place it in the lower right corner of the grill.

Well hmmm.... first post. Never been much for modifying vehicles in the past but my love for backpacking, guns, and the great outdoors in general kept trying to convince me that I would really enjoy a 4x4. I find this kind of backwards as I am an auto technician for a living and have been for a long time. I am an ASE certified Master Technician L1 and although I've always loved working on vehicles from the troubleshooting, diagnostic, and repair side I've just never been one to spend my weekends playing with cars.

Recently my wife and I purchased a home out of town and several times found ourselves wishing we had a better vehicle for poor weather/winter driving conditions. Of course.... enter the 3rd gen 4runner.

I found one that was going to auction and needed a tad bit of work (just knock sensor wiring sub-harness) and bought it for far to little. It has 220k with one previous owner and all records. Totally Colorado kept and garaged with not a spot of rust. Left entirely stock except the hitch.

I was thrilled, it drives great and I have always had a soft spot for these things. The wife and I looked up some local trails to go driving and hiking on and I instantly fell in love with the world of off road. I've been glued to many of your build threads and have become enthused about building this into a sort of expedition vehicle over the next few years. Taking work home I guess...

Anyway sorry if you read my whole auto-biography of sorts but here is my petty contribution. Just wanted to be able to document my progress and meet some like minded people.





overcast and muddy in Northern Colorado.

It's a 2000 SR5 5-speed with E-locker.

So far I have already placed an order for Shrockworks sliders and plan to lift it on OME 881/890s with 265/75R16 Goodyear Duratracs and we shall see from there. This forum aided greatly on my aftermarket choices as I'm a bit out of my element with that sort of thing so thank you! If you ever need factory part numbers, factory wiring diagrams, or just questions about troubles you may be having feel free to contact me I'd love to contribute.

Can't believe how silly I must sound but ahhh hell.. screw it.
