New 2014 4Runner!

[nmertz1]

Hey everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Nick and this is my first 4Runner. I've been in an 07 FJ until I found a good deal on this 2014 TEP w/KDSS. Only has 11k miles.

My old rig

New 4Runner

Thanks! The FJ had a custom "gunmetal dip" on it. Pretty much plasti dip but held up for 2 years with no peeling or chipping anywhere. Loved it

That is a delicious FJ, can't wait to see what you do with the 4RNR

Congrats on the new truck and welcome!

Thanks everyone, really excited to get started. There has been a lot of inspiration on this forum! I am looking to have a build similar another (former?) member.

A couple updated pics. Not sure if this has a lift or leveling kit. But I bought it like this and it has 285/70/17 terra grapplers on it with no rubbing...

Judging from pics it definitely has some sort of lift or leveling kit. Plus you'd getting rubbing with 285/70 if it was stock.

I was just about to comment that from the first picture it appears to be lifted. Clean looking Trail. Good luck with it!

Nice 14' Trail!

Oh, and Welcome!!

Definitely leveled (somehow). Welcome to the forum! Nice ride.

Post a close-up pic of the front coilovers and rear springs and we might can give more info on the lift.

Anyone have an idea what this truck has?

 

[sn_85]

It has a front spacer lift

That's what I figured it was. Thank you!

Now if I were to add new aftermarket wheels/tires could I still run into some rubbing issues?

Check out the sticky at the top of the forum for new owners. There should be lots for you to read on tire and wheel fitment. The answer to your question, without knowing specifically what tires/wheels you're considering is "depends."

 

[nmertz1]

Painted the wheels caps black, and blacked out all the emblems. Also added the n-fab steps.

New Stealth Custom Series SR8 wheels installed. Thanks Vin for awesome customer service and product.

 

[nmertz1]

Big changes! Going in for a wrap

 

[nmertz1]

Now time for a proper lift and tires... Boss 2.5 lift, Total Chaos UCA's, Toytec HD springs with new boss shock reservoirs. Also upgraded to 285 duratracs! Couldn't be happier with the outcome
