never really introduced my self here. Ive been snooping around these threads since April 2014. I had a 2011 nissan frontier SL and really liked it <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/122166461@N02/16286313518" title="Untitled by Matthew Keegan, on Flickr"><img src="https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8667/16286313518_2dd0dd00e8_z.jpg" width="640" height="478" alt="Untitled"></a>

but when the wife and I had a baby the car seat wouldn't fit.........well it did but the passenger was eating the windshield. My buddy who works at stephen toyota in Bristol, CT told me they just got in a 2012 sr5 with 13k miles so I scooped it up in June '14.....

Didn't do much except plastidip front and rear and still need to do rest of chrome. I decided I needed a lift but didn't have the money to do a full suspension lift so i went with Daystar. here it is getting ready at my schools autoshop

Near future mods will be 285's and maybe n-fabs. Debating on whether to keep stock wheels or get something a little wider. Planning on keeping it OEM+
Thanks for Looking and more to come!

Welcome to T4R, did you keep your Nissan? Looks like you took really good care of it.
No, I actually leased it so I handed it in and it had 2k dollars of equity which was pretty awesome. It was well taken care of. I wanted a Taco at the time but needed to lease and nissan had the best deal at the time.
 
Nice ride. We both purchased the 4runner for the same reason. Baby on the way so needed something bigger. Good luck with the build.
