RunnerJeff's T4R Build Thread!!

[RunnerJeff]

Here's my 4Runner guys & gals! Tell me what you think and, of course, give me suggestions on lifts, tires, wheels, etc. I will be blacking out all the lights but I am not sure if I should do it myself, or have a paint and body shop do it. BUT I do need to get a lift on quick and some tires. On a simple budget, I am a college student and you know what all comes with that arty: and of course riding trails with my buddies!

Mod list

Window tint - 22% on the rear to match my 13% in the front

Viper 2-way Remote Start/Security

WeatherTech digital fit floor mats
WeatherTech window vents

Pioneer AVH-P3300BT headunit - flawless, I love this thing

Blacked out headlight housings

I need tons of suggestions too!!

I will take a picture of my truck when I get a chance. But basically I have the same 2005 black V8 sport as you. what I did was the following:

Black Headlights aftermarket
Body Shop Painted all my rear lights
3/2 cornfed lift
285 BFG tires
Spider Trax Spacers
Powder coated stock sport wheels black
Removed Mud Flaps and Running Boards
paint front and rear silver sport trim black
Swapped my silver roof rack for black
tinted front windows 20%
Scion Radio with aux input for ipod
Volant Intake
Dirty deeds industries muffler

thats all I can think of LOL.

Yes post pics ASAP! I am anxious to see it. I want to take the running boards off but it kind of gives it that "naked" look, like something should be there since you can see the whole underside of the vehicle when you take them off.

But with your spacers, do you feel any rub?

A lot of updates. Hopefully this weekend I can get some pictures up on here. I've been very busy. Right now i'm looking into spacers. I really don't want to spend $100 on them. You know of any place that sells Spidertrax cheaper?

You can get the blems for cheaper when they're available. Google "spidertrax blems" and you'll probably find the link.

Blems are just spacers that have problems with the anodizing, so the blue isn't perfect. There are no other problems or they wouldn't be able to sell them.
