87 4 Runner Build

Wow... a blast from the past. I haven’t been on in a long time but I was reminiscing about my first project. I miss this runner but can’t say I have any regrets. It was a fun toy and met some good people here.

Anyone else I missed who may still be around? I wish this forum grew and was more active.

Anyways, just thought I’d stop by and remember the good ol days.
 
Unfortunately people don’t really interact on here anymore. It died way off from the old days. Glad you’re still breathing man. I’m still doing crazy builds. I started a build thread of my new one, but not enough interaction to keep it going. *♂️

I just pop in from time to time to see whats the biggest tire I can fit on my stock truck is.

Haha, yea... still breathing. I saw your build thread, it looks really nice.

Good to see you’re still around. From what I can tell, this whole forum just died. Too bad, it was a cool site.
 
I'm still here occasionally... too many projects to be on the forum every day.

I was the drooling high schooler back in the day LOL

Seems like when you 4 sold out, the classic section died :sad:

I check in every now and again. Clearly not often enough to reply to PMs or mentions on time, but I get around to it.

I miss the Bastard and I miss yacking with you guys. I thought about starting another 1st gen, but then I sat in one and discovered I'm not nearly that flexible anymore. I'm working on an Excursion build right now, family wheeler/dirt road camping kinda thing, and I'm plotting on an 80 series or maybe full size Bronco next. Maybe a GX470. But I don't think I see another 4Runner in my future at this point.

Forums in general died as people moved to FB. But starting to see a shift back as the fb groups get overloaded with repetitive posts.

Been watching some videos on the new bronco (have one reserved) and it reminded me of our Moab trip. And somehow here I am too. I hope you and your family are doing well. I regret not having been more adventurous. Also miss forums. I'm sure I'll stick my head in again sometime....

Damn I forgot that was my icon. Lol...

I kinda miss the old runner days too. It was always cool wheeling with Bill and posting here. I had a newer Tacoma for a while but was tearing it up with my wheeling style. I sold out completely and ended up with a ‘15 4 door wrangler and started building it like crazy... it’s better fitted for a family and my style of wheeling anyways.

If I ever get another runner it will be a brand new one with all the plush goodies and will likely never see dirt.

True, it seems that even Jeep forums are dead for the most part. Bummer. I don’t do Facebook so it’s only forums for me.
