97 3RZ 5SPD 35's DD

We need some info on the new 3rd gen. What is the plan? move everything over. Great build. Keep it up

Priced out the solid axle swap and everything I wanted to do including turbo setup and it got $$ quick. I found a clean swapped 4runner with almost exactly what I wanted (may be building new axles). This one will either sell as is, or get parted and sell with 2.5" lift, 33's and 4.10 gears. More details on the new one if the deal goes through.

Wish you were closer.... I'm in Montana and would buy this. Nice truck.

Thanks bud.

No new 4runner..."turn key" is a highly misrepresented phrase. Figured might as well continue with this one and ordered up a badlands front bumper.

Badlands bumper done.

Glad you held onto it! The combo of the badlands front and addicted rear bumpers look awesome, I've always been partial to tube bumpers. I have the F5's same color and backspacing as you, a Savage front and rear bumper on order, a 1" body lift and 5 315/75-16 Duratracs just waiting to go on. Though mine is a Desert Dune, stoked to be running a pretty similar setup to yours! Keep it going!

I like your bumper combo, these two together look great!

Glad you kept it, it looks awesome.

Thanks! Me too, starting to really like this thing. Got the 1st gen sold (probably) and will start looking for a 2wd single cab taco for the next project (Leaf sprung SAS).

SCS won't have 3.5" bs wheels until Feb, lame. New project on it's way to keep me from SAS on this thing.

Still need to finish my license plate mount, but rear swing out is complete...

Thanks Chuckles, it's been fun to build. Finishing up exhaust this week, fixing a leak in my ARB, build some sliders, then finally get it off the pavement (been waaay too long).

Thanks! My gf has a lot of family up there, beautiful area. Once I get some sliders on will need to make a dedicated wheeling trip.
