Hey everyone! So, this is my shot at creating my build thread haha. So 4 months ago I purchased my first car, a 1999 Four runner the SR5 model. It was exactly what I wanted! I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences and pictures with everyone. Ill start posting pictures first thing tomorrow. I don't have the stock photo of the Trooper right now but I will tomorrow and show you guys. Alright well thanks!

Hello and welcome.

Since you are having issues posting your pics, I suggest you use imageshack.us for posting pictures (jpeg) into your thread.

Simply take the pics with your iPhone, USB connect to your PC, copy the pictures over and then upload them into your free Imagshack account. They will be there forever and anyone can access them (unlike other services ... flicker).

Once uploaded, click embed, copy the "forum" URL data and paste it into your thread.

It is much better than the attachments feature.

Cow Mountain wheeling day

So i live only 40 minutes away from what is called cow mountain, it is an OHV area and is a great place to go wheel theres river crossing, mud boggs,trail rides,scenic rides, all kinds of fun for every type of vehicle! This was the first time i was taking out MY OWN VEHICLE four wheeling and couldnt wait! The trip went great!I didnt have a single issue with anything :). The runner completed its test run and im extremely happy with what i have now and cant wait to make my truck even better. Heres pics of the trip!

did you strip the emblems on the back yourself or was it like that when you got it? if you did how did you do it just pry it off?

nice rig btw looking forward to some upgrades

Thanks man! Ya stay tuned for more!
A credit card and goo gone works wonders man haha. But yes i took all the emblems off the rear except for the stock toyota emblem in its original place but i painted it trim black and then bought a TRD emblem badge to finish it off haha. But just to make you aware, the emblems just from vibration and touching the paint on the surface of the car causes the paint to wear and chip to the exact shape of the emblems. I recommend using rubbing compound to get rid of the fading underneath and then wax to fade the color back in. After doing that it should look great other than maybe seeing some outlining close up still
