Hey man I was just wondering what you used to trim your front valance? I am looking to doing something similar to that

I used a dremil w/ cutting wheel.

It looks great man. might have to do mine similar (don't wanna rip ya off)

And are you sure that was not a modded vehicle? I'm in a 98 limited with the EXACT same interior. The only difference is the exterior flares.
HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU LOWER THE BACK SEATS???? Mine are impossible to lower -_-

I also bought a black grill. Eventually Ill get around to painting or plasti-dipping the bumper. Should looks really nice when everything is all matching.

I'm not sure if someone swapped out the interior or someone ordered it that way from the factory..I just wish my driver seat wasnt ripped up in the ass :/

Mine come right down, I dunno :hat:

Lol I just threw a coat of matte black on my grill myself xD gonna hit all my badges with it when I get the time to.


I really want to do my bumper, a LOT but I'm afraid of messing it up painting it

Matte black is sexy, parked next to a conpletely matte black Nissan Titan today, it was so sexy o.o

It's been awhile since my last post in here, since then I got a set of new BFG All Terrains. Went with 31's. My gas mileage is way better and the acceleration is better. Even the motor sounds like it's straining less.

Also ordered a Baja Expedition roof rack. Took a little over a month to get. I got the flat expedition style because I plan on buying a roof top tent in the near future.

I actually really like that rack. Sleek. Truck looks great. Very clean

Your 4Runner is really clean. What brand/size/backspacing are your wheels?

I just bought a very stock/original owner 98 2WD 2.7l with most of the engine in boxes in the back. It last ran four years ago. I am contemplating building the engine with some performance mods or getting a used crate motor from JDM. I am very interesting in viewing your ride, but I'm unable to see any pictures. Are they still available? I have tried several different browsers, but no joy.

Good lookin' truck!
