How much have you invested into your rig? BTW, you have sweet 2nd gen.

85runner

Winch

Yoter

I doubt I would want to know the exact figure. But I have lately been guesstimating $5K to 7K. I save EVERY reciept when I purchase parts though so someday I may add it all up. thanks for the compliment. Blue

BBB - Your truck is pretty much the model for my rig, eventually I would LOVE for mine to be like yours. But yeah, a winch and on-board air would be cool...but like I said before, you have the sweetest 2nd Gen. Once you get those new tires and black wheels its going to kick a$$ !!

Yoter

Oh yeah I didn't even think of those. Good idea you guys. Blue

fooddude

you could always do a sas, or winch, by the way love the rig.

Yoter

Thanks Chris. Your Runner will get there. Takes patience and knowledge. Yotatech is your knowledge being you have plenty of minds to pick for direction in building it up. I couldnt have did it without YT. Blue

Yoter

thanks

I'd get a bumper either TJM or ARB.

Dual ARB lockers.

SAS.

front and rear bumpers some nerf bars and a roll cage

Cebby

There is a readers rides section for that laundry list ya know...

dusty98

Wow, what a list!
I'd say a front locker and/or winch. Front locker in addition to your rear EZ locker would make a big difference. Then you'd really need a winch

KING

Nerf bars?

I think you mean sliders.

Yoter

Already got my "readers rides" rig there with pics. Nobody goes there unless their looking to check out other rigs. I needed info into what I should get next and felt spilling the beans on what ive got was useful so I didnt get a list from others to get stuff ive already got. Speaking of laundry why is it that we wash our bathroom towels. Were clean when we get out of the shower/bath and only use them to dry off, so how do they get dirty? LOL Theres your laundry related topic Ceb.

I need to find a girlfriend to be my piture taker. I suck! Then I can get action shots and not still shots. But where will I find a deaf dumb & blind girl willing to hook up with me? LOL

fooddude

rock on blue, we can start a club for the guys who can only get the girls that cant see us.
