So, long overdue. Easter is over and yes the runner arrived safe and sound. I will post some pics later, but just to let you know I do have some idea's in mind for her. On the top of my list is to build a custom bumper and swing gate tire carrier. The T4R arrived Thursday before Easter and I drove her to Texas for the weekend. Had a new spare mounted and rotated and balanced the tires....noticed some grease leaking around the rear back plate, T4R's and their rear axle seal problems:wtf: Anyway, didn't have the time to do the job, nor the know how......but after 1177.00, i'll learn and find the time. Some of you are probably wondering, who is this dude and what is he talking about...well I bought the rig from MillerPKA out in North Carolina...and it has been moved to it's new home in New Mexico. Hope she hasn't minded the blowing dirt too much.

that has to be the best wheel/tire combo ive ever seen
Thanks Ripcord, If you came to my house, you would think that I am having some kind of mid-life crisis or something.:guitar3: Yeah, the 2011 Camaro's are awesome.....got tired of seeing other people drive them so I went and traded my truck for one just before Christmas. Some evening when I have them both out and all cleaned up, Ill have to take a pic with the both of them
. The 4runner is running great, had to get the rear axle seals and bearing replaced, but she's rockin' again. I remember an invite a few weeks back, to meet up with the local club. We will definitely have to get together.Exactly Ripcord, I love this rack. I already have plans for a mod for it though. Right above the sun roof there is a large space that I think I can make use of with some 1 inch conduit and expanded metal. The space is open and I can get a little extra space with the mod and still have use of the sun roof. I have already shaped the conduit so that it will fit over and wrap around one of the cross members on the rack. I also have plans for a tire carrier, based on one that I saw on Addicted Offroad's website.
