That could be a problem hahaha
I call the last 3 pages of this build the pages of regrets and forgotten dreams.

depends on the owners intentions/experience
that's exactly what I did with my 65 mustang, ruined it by catching 'mod' disease... and it just became a bunch of nice parts that didn't help each other and in the end, it wasn't done 'right' and it was too costly to just fix it right. I admit I didn't know what I wanted out of the vehicle, pushing 145hp at tires with a 1bbl i6 200ci is great, but I also wanted MPG and economy, before I got the HP, I was able to get 20c/29h in a 40+y/o car!
I've been following many builds here and I know the direction I want for 80/20 build, I'm DD'n mine, but I do want mods to help in some area's just not all.
IMO, 4Running Daily you're at a cross road, keep the car that you've known your whole life, or move on...
Maybe you should think what you really WANT out of the truck, would you enjoy the truck more if it wasn't so modified in some area's? What form could you use the truck more in (more mods vs less mods)? maybe bringing it back down to 33's with a turbo where the muffler is, someone on here did that. anyways, you should think hard what it's meant to do for you, not what else you can do to it.

I have to ask if you want to address that list of issues yet won't have any time to wheel, why tackle them in the first place? I could maybe understand adding the Supercharger and better speakers from my viewpoint.
I say buy the best tools one can afford. I had a Miller mig, sold it, big regret in doing such.
I was going to ask if you went the Focus route how the family Xmas tree would get to the house. I hope it wouldn't get a ride in the Porsche.

I might combine all the ideas. Buy a motorcycle and park the 4Runner for when I do have time to use it.

Sadly these are for my Arizona friend with a Tacoma. 48" links are too long for our trucks unless you don't want a back seat anymore.

Now that you say that they do look pretty long. I just thought you were giving up on ground clearance.

We both need to link the rear, you go first and figure out how. I'm going to look at the newest Ducati tomorrow.
