Ugh, looks like I got bit by the mod bug.

[Victor]

First off, I bought this truck last year on New Years day as a treat to myself. It's purpose was to serve me on camping trips, mountain biking trips etc... Basically it allowed me to do the outdoor things that I can't do in my car. With that said, it was only supposed to be a daily driver since I had a dedicated wheeler already. I was not going to modify at all I would like to add! I should have known myself, my friends certainly did! They gave me within the year I would have some stuff done to the truck. Then came CT4WD.com, I joined them and it went downhill from there! So the conclusion? If you're the type that can't leave things alone don't make promises you can't keep! Haha

I started off with a bone stock 99 SR5, before this irreversible modification I added a Safari Rack, Sequoia wheels with BFG A/Ts.

This past few weeks, I have added the 1.5mm All Pro Hubcentric Wheel spacers, ARB Bumper, Removed running boards (looks a lot cleaner)

Ya, I want to hear more about that photoshop job!

It's called High Dynamic Range. It's a merger of over, under and properly exposed images....

Nice runner, what's your next mod??

Nice runner, what's your next mod??

I can't take credit for those pictures, those were taken from a friend in our 4WD association.

Next on the list, Toytec Ultimate Lift, Safari Snorkel, and new tires, these BFG All Terrains are gettin worn. I was thinking Goodyear Wrangler MT/R w/Kevlar

:ybrick: Doh! I should have thought of HDR, I think I'm going to head out and take a few of my own. That one turned out amazing...

 

[shawnstcyr]

I told myself the same thing when I bought mine. "I'm not gonna mod it. If I can't get there stock, I have no business being there!" That lasted about a year. Then I met the Colorado Rockies.....

Hi Victor,

Could you please post more pics of your truck with ARB bumper installed?
Thanks

 

[Victor]

That first pic is absolutely amazing.

And that pic with the remaining are starting my inevitible spiral of regret for dumping my 3rd gen.

Well done, all look like fun!

 

[Ron Helmuth]

love the shots

I vote Victor's shots as most likely to be saved as a Desktop background.

I get more remarks about that enhanced shot of yours.

Good looking buildup you have underway Victor.

Happy Holidays all of you guys.

Stay safe and plan ahead to allow plenty of travel time. Our Runners are outstanding but they still don't fly low safely.

hey vic, is that a taco skid plate your running with the arb? if not where did you get that?

 

[4MUDDER]

Don't know about you guys but I knew I was gunna have my own creation of the 4runner I don't like when
I
hav the same as others lol

 

[Victor]

Thanks Ron Helmuth for the compliments, it truly means a lot.
Theizzardking, LOL it's not a Tacoma skid plate, the skid plate just got dirty from the gravel roads. Combined with the sun and camera angle, maybe I can pull that off? Haha.

Guys I love my truck, stay tuned for 4Runner ver.2 '10:biggrin2:
