Bought a stock 2001 Sport two weeks ago and...

maybe after i win the lottery and finish college. haha.

will a nikon lens work with a canon?

They actually make a mount so you can use that 14-24mm on a Canon. That's how cool it is!

But for the most part you want to buy Nikon lenses for Nikons and vice versa. Both companies make some pretty amazing lenses. 6 to one in my opinion.

I.m thinking of getting the exact same suspension set up as you... my worry is that the 890's in the rear will sag.. I dont carry too much weight in the back often... are yours sagging at all?

No sagging whatsoever here.

That's a good looking rig! Sent you a PM.

Mod it a bit

Hepar, Well, I'd like to mod it a bit. Go with the CB, lift, tire change, eventually a manual transmission swap...and some other things. Have any ideas for a new guy?

Haha, I bet you cringed a bit when replying to that. At least he didn't ask about just rims.:bravo:

Sucked In

It's really easy to get sucked in. I just want rims and tires.....Now I need a lift........then...........everything!

 

[pdx650]

Saw your 4Runner on my way back from Stevens Pass this afternoon.

I dig the Hilux Surf emblems, looks good.

Anyway, slick ride man, never seen a tube bumper on a 3rd gen and liked it.

Also---What are you using for your front mud flaps?

You were the green Sport behind me! That's awesome. I was telling my friends in the car with me that I was diggin' seeing another Sport in my rear view mirror. Super clean ride. I tried to give you a nod and a smile of approval when you passed all while trying not to look like a random a-hole. You had me drooling when I saw the supercharged badge.

I bought a set of Highland Contura flaps. I used this as a guide:

Thanks for that too. I dig 'em 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time I wonder if it's sort of silly. Like would I badge a standard BMW 325 as a M3?

Nice ride. It started out almost exactly like the one I am looking at. Funny but I like the look of the lift and the bumpers. Its a civilized off-road capable look.

Funny? Not funny at all! Good luck with the potential purchase.

Huge improvement.. Looks way better. You will not have a problem getting to the boards standing on the back tires. I surf SoCal and do it all the time. Sweet truck. Can't believe it only has 50K+ miles on her.

 

[jgeorg]

What would it cost on average to put a pair of those 8069's with BFG A/T's?

Thanks. It will be a lot easier if I ever get off my arse and get my sliders welded on. I'm hoping to get around to it next week.

Do it. DO IT NOW!!! (Arnold Schwartzenegger voice from "Predator")

I'm sure it's a little more work w/having to get the legs welded to the plates, to the sliders, etc. But you'll be very happy you did. I can't stop going in the garage to look at mine.

 

[quicksilvr]

.... I can't stop going in the garage to look at mine.

Isn't that a great feeling?
