[Ill4Runner]

Holy crap man, you wheel that thing hard! Bravo!

 

[fireteacher]

post up! thanks, i just enjoy the capabilities of the runner, i could take the easy lines but, whats the fun! all the damage came from the entrance to orange. i tried to get cretive and squeeze through a trail not wide enough end had to get creative making the turn...out of 4wd and into 2wd to spin the truck around. and hit a stump. ehhhh i like the hurculiner look, noone has it on a runner round here thats for sure!

Whoo hoo, I just did a first major mod to my 4Runner. I installed the Magnaflow cat back exhaust. It took me and a friend of mine about an hour and a half. The hardest part was to remove two bolts, after that it is very easy to put in the new exhaust.

Next, I'm getting new tires.

 

[fireteacher]

awesome, the bug bites and keeps bitting, damn mod bug!!!

now come wheeling this weekend

 

[Ill4Runner]

I can come up on Saturday the 28th, I gotta work on Friday.

Congrats on the new exhaust!

 

[Ill4Runner]

Will you still be there on Saturday fireteacher? Even if you're not, we can meet up somewhere in my area and get some pics of the rigs together if you want. I'm right next to St. Louis.

 

[fireteacher]

i will be driving to memphis next thursday or friday and from there will be dropping my runner off in st louis to be shipped to hawaii. if you wanted to meet up thurs or fri to either hit a trail or whatnot, that would work but the 28th i will be in memphis!

we are hitting the trails this weekend at the badlands

 

[oblivionis]

awesome, the bug bites and keeps bitting, damn mod bug!!!

I'll definitively come wheeling one of those days but I got to get new tires first.

New member here from the Gurnee/Grayslake area. I have a stock '01 4Runner and look forward to reading more and hopefully meeting up w/ some of you fine folks. I would be interested in getting off-road with it sometime soon now that my camping season is just about over.
