Your 4Runner looks sweet. I make my way up to Sterling quite often as my mom lives there. Might have to pm you when I go one weekend so we can possibly meet up and shoot the sh!t about runners and maybe you can show me a few things as I just got mine on the 1st of March.

Great News! Bought a 4Runner last weeek. Its an 04 limited V8 stratosphere blue.. Its in VGC 93kmiles. Had the dealer do the Tbelt and Wp. I put brake pads and rotors on it. I love it. SO happy we found a nice one.

The plan is to keep it very mild. Its my GF's daily driver.
Might start with a a leveling kit and 70 series tires. Then evolve from there.

I come from a sports car back ground. I've been a high performance driving instructor for better part of 10 years. We will use it to transport and tow for some of that still. We got the truck for a number of reason to replace our V8 5 series wagon,most of all we both want to do some events off the pavement

We really are looking forward to getting outside meet some new people and having fun.

Congrats on the purchase!

You say start with leveling kit then tires then evolve from there. If you plan on bigger suspension at anytime go ahead and do it right the first time. I did a spacer lift then a real suspension lift now chaning my coils again and also wanting coilovers lol i could have saved money in the long run lol just a suggestion if your just going to keep wanting more.

But you will love the 4r no matter what!

Thanks! I know just how slippery the slope can be. My younger brother has an FJ on OME stuff that rides awesome. Maaaaybee I can give the GF a nudge in that direction haha.

Yea it is a slippier slope lol and im running ome coils up front i love them. And i had the same problem my gf is short and we have a daughter so she said its hard to get her in and out but after awhile of convincing she gave in and now im at about 5in of lift lol

265/70r17 Coopers. Got a great deal on them and I am really happy with my choice.


Prepping for Plasti-Dip. I did the wheels the front and rear center sections of the bumpers and the roof rack.


This is just after the lift. I did it at a friends shop. Daystar 2.5/1.5


And here we are on Corolla Beach NC. Last weekend. Truck was just perfect. 21+mpg from Richmond. Never even flinched at the deepest sand. Yeah. Im happy.

I live in Williamsburg, but commute to Richmond a few times a week as I am a VCU student. It would be nice to get VA members together to meet and wheel, pretty much every runner I see around is stock as well. Its nice to know there are others out there.
