Upcoming mods for my 02 Sport

*Updates* Upcoming mods for my 02 Sport

I just ordered my custom plate bumper from outdoor logic so I'm excited for that. I'm still working on a Retro fit for my headlights and getting an Aero billet grille.

I want to lift my runner and am wondering how to go about it, and I want to know if I should space it as well but I don't know how it effects steering and traction. Any input from you guys? I basically want to make this thing bulletproof and an off-road beast

Here's a pic of my soon to be armor:

Good call on the outdoor logic bumper. Lifting really depends on your budget. All around ride I'd go with the Toytec Ultimate with the super flex coils.

I didn't realize they made the '02 sports in that red color. How about some more pics?

Good looking ride!

I'd like to see which Aero grill you went with....

Read up on the Sonoran Steel website for lifting -lots of good info there.

Consider a body lift first-it may give you the stance you like without the money of a suspension lift.

4crawler.com is good source for info on body lifting.

Welcome to the fine forum.

The sunfire red pearl is a rare color on the 02 sports, so is the stellar blue pearl.

Curious why you got a offroad bumper, you seem to have already chosen the street truck route..

There's a couple SR Sports in my town. I wrote a note about swapping hoods but unfortunately never heard anything back...

Thanks! I went with the Jaos grille since I couldn't find any other I liked

Well the 4runner was originally my dads, he never had the intention of using it off-road but once he gave it to me I always wanted to have it capable of going off-road so that's what I'm doing, I'm converting it to be off-road but I'm not going to be climbing rocks I just want the ability to be off-road and away from pavement.

It will take a while for me to get there though
