Travis' 06 SR5 4WD build thread!

Your truck looks great. Also, great shots in your most recent post. A 4runner with some Texas scenery always makes for a good subject. I notice you list your location as College Station. Are you an Ag? I don't recall ever seeing any cool 4runners around town while I was in school there.

Whoop! So far the only "mod" I've done to the runner has been adding my Century Club sticker to the back. Maybe I'll go for some A&M plates, too.

I am looking at getting some 16 inch wheels and wanted to ask a question. Since the factory wheels are 17 did you have to trim any of the rotor protector thing so the smaller diameter wheels would fit?

Nope i didnt modify my brakes at all. I dont have the bigger brake package though, i'm not sure which 4runners have them but i know some cant fit 16" wheels.

[MENTION=110010]KingGeorge[/MENTION] if your calipers have WH embossed on them then you need at least 17" wheels to clear your rotor and dust cover combo. WH means you have the larger front rotors (same calipers but they have longer stand-off brackets to clear the larger 331mm rotor). If you have WG or WL you can fit 16" wheels (as you have the smaller 318mm rotors) is what my research revealed when shopping for wheels last year.

Hey, nice truck. Do you have any pictures of the light throw from your SpecD's? High and low beams? Thinking about getting a set for myself :decision:

Here's the low beams. High beams are reflectors so it's the same as stock ones.

December update: ended 2014 with rock sliders and moar lights!!

Sliders were fabbed by my buddy Rob, who I believe his username is RobMills72 on here, he's got an awesome 2nd gen!

Went to the 4wheelparts grand opening at their new store on 1960 and won a $100 gift card and spent that on some rear facing lightbars.

And here's some random pics I figured I'd throw in just cause

Thanks and gig 'em

AWESOME truck man! How did you attach the led spot/floods to the yakima rack? Looks really good.

Thanks man! I just used the universal mount that came with the rigids and bolted it down to the fiberglass fairing on the rack

Made another hill country trip over spring break for some camping and wheeling.

Hey what emblem did you use for your satoshi grill? Where'd you find it? Thanks.

I know this is a noob question but I am going to ask anyway. I just bought an 03 runner (coming from a lifted xterra) and I want to stuff 33s in. With your lift and bumper did you modify anything at all?

 

[swiftneed]

awesome ride , hoping to make my truck grow up like yours lol 2003 4runner V8 4.7 got into the group buy soon enough

 

[TeamLord]

Sweet ride. You did an amazing job on all your mods.

 

[fozzywozzy]

Awesome rig man!

also did you do anything special to fit the 16's on your 4r?

 

[swede59]

Nice build!
