OME 883s and 890s

I got the new front end in. The front looks a tad higher, but when measured it was level with the rear. Hopefully they will settle a bit or worst case I will start looking for some 7 or 8 wrap LC coils. Anyway, here are the before and afters.

Before (2" front with OME 890s)

After (883s and 890s)

Hopefully tires to follow next week, 275/70/17s

My buddy and I did some exploring today at the Shoal Creek Experimental Forest. There were also a lot of fs roads to ride as well.

It wasn't anything crazy. Just some spur of the moment bs'ing. Next time I will pm you. Hoping to find more trails and things like this that are legal and fun.
 
def just saw you at blind pig tavern, rig looks great in person

Oh the Blind Pig, my brother worked there before he walked through the Arches. I've spent quite a few drunken Saturdays there myself.

Doyle, sorry to hear about your Mom. Your truck is looking great.

Thanks NateMob, the blind pig is a great place to "chill" on those Saturdays. Thanks for the kind words too. Hope to see your AMAZING 4runner one day when you are passing through GA.
 
Cell Phone Mount

I got bored and decided to move my cell phone mount from the windshield. This is what I came up with. So far so good.

I just scrolled through your build thread. The 4Runner is looking good.

I'll be praying for you and your family during this difficult time.
 
Updates 4/24/14

Got a few things in today that will be going into the 4runner soon. I plan to complete my CB setup, got a few Quick Fist Clamps and some grip tape for the door area (Note taken from BigFishAllDay and Ripcord builds). Pictures as always...

Small Updates

I have recently painted my cowl, wiper arms and grill again. They had faded pretty good. I also finally got my phb drop bracket installed the other day thanks to 706t4r.
