Now I get to wait two weeks for the bumper to come in

I'm so impatient.

 

[SantaCruzRunner]

addicted offroad right?

 

[963rdgen]

Yes sir,
I ordered it with a 1" BL Bracket, so I need to put the body lift on before that.

Santacruz, just read through most of your build thread, love what you've done with your truck. Very clean.

thanks man, it means a lot!

 

[963rdgen]

What's next on your list?

 

[djtc]

Is this going to be a mall crawler? From what ive heard ,there are no good trails around toronto unless you drive a few hours ..

 

[963rdgen]

While this will occasionally crawl at the mall, I assure you it will have a crapload of trail use!
There are no trails in Toronto, but head an hour north and there's tons!

It's more northeast actually.

Check out Sontt.com/forum and come say hi!

 

[SantaCruzRunner]

What's next on your list?

front bumper most likely

 

[963rdgen]

You're going with the addicted?

I saw a couple other cool ones when I was looking around. |

Badlands is nice, but their website is **** so you can fool around with options, or figure out pricing at all, one of the gus added some extra tubing and it looked really good, but might affect approach angle.

yeah just cause its nice and simple, ive always liked the look of tube bumpers.

I've decided to go with the Toytec Ultimate Lift in the Front adjusted to 3-3.5" and the rear superflex coils with the extended shocks for them. Excited, but it'll probably be in a month or two.

Very nice. One day I will probably switch to the coilovers. I have no complaints with the TRD tundras but those coilovers are sweet. I'm interested to see how the superflex coils are.

 

[963rdgen]

Well I'll try to get them going asap.

How old are you?

I saw at the start of your build thread you were graduating.

I'm 20 as of this summer.

I might need to wait for my tax return prior to the ultimate lift.

18 haha just graduated highschool. Got my runner sophmore year

 

[963rdgen]

Solid Man!
I bought my first runner when I was 18, it was a red 2nd Gen:
1990 4runner first mud pit bradford. - YouTube

Don't judge I had no clue what I was doing lol.

First ever offroad experience caught on film. That fried the alternator.

Anyways turned out it needed 900$ of work to safety. Wasn't worth it IMO.
Still miss it though, such a simple design, robust. Nice truck. Engine was pathetic though.
