ADH8796 4runner Build

Thanks man I really appreciate it. I can't say I know your buddy Daniel I don't make it to Siloam much. I got my bumpers from Addictedoffroad.com call and talk to Scott. I'd consider building some sliders for you but Im not real sure what I'd charge you. I'd have to go back through my cost's and time. I'll think about it and shoot you a PM. You need to come out and go wheeling with us sometime.

Id love to go with you guys and watch LOL

From the looks of your wheeling, I could'nt keep up. Ill look into the bumpers.
 
The new rings look sweet! The contrast from the black definitely sets them off

Thanks it's taking a little bit for it to grow on me but overall I like it and think it will be a better setup.

Like Waldo said their are normally places for you to drive around. And of course we always have extra seats.
 
Well since I've switched to the AL rings I've been experiencing balancing issues. With the steel rings I never had any issues everything was always smooth as silk. But immediately after mounting up the AL rings things changed. Not really sure what the issue is so I'm going to dismount the rings and remount them. At this point I'm just hoping I didn't get the rings tightened down evenly and it's throwing off the balance.
 
Started with the drivers side front tire. Unbolted the ring and made sure the wheel was as centered as possible and then added about 1oz of bb's. I figured it wouldn't hurt anything to add 1oz of bb's per tire so I just went ahead and tossed them in. After I got everything centered and bolted back up I went for a drive and wouldn't you know it no more wobble. I'm going to go ahead and add 1oz of bb's to the rest of the tires just so everything matches but other than that no more wobble.
 
Took a trip to Devils Den state park and found a few moderate trails. Then we found what wasn't actually a trail but a pretty fun dry creek bed perfect for some more technical stuff.

Well I've been trying to figure out blinkers for a while so this is what I ended up doing. I cut up my original blinkers so I could use the bulb socket in the corner bulbs. I wanted to keep my parking lights but I also wanted to utilize the corners as blinks. So I drilled a hole in each one of the corner light housings and with glue and silicone I used the back side of my original blinkers and attached them to my corners.

Along with that I added 2 LED lights to my grill for a little added light output. I really like the way everything came out. I have plenty of light output and everything seems pretty clean.

First pic is just parking lights on and the second pic is with the flashers on.

And relocated my TRAC off switch in order to make room for my light bar rocker switch in the dash

Nice small amount. After my set of tires wear out I am possibly going up to 35's but it would be without BL, it would be a lot of trimming!

That's what I did with my last build. It's really not that much more trimming than to run just 1" BL in my opinion. But they both have their advantages.

Here's my last build for reference

The lights look awesome out front. Were those from one of the recent group buys on here?

Thanks! Actually a group buy that [MENTION=58830]ARKRWLR[/MENTION] pointed out to me over on TacomaWorld. But same lights that everyone else has been selling in their group buys on this board.
