TDubbs05 - 94' 4runner

4-10-05 : 1st 4runner Bought (194,000 mi) - Bone Stock



Looks great right now but only from the outside. In Feb 07 i found a headgasket leak that only led to a larger can of worms. Morale of the story: when you buy a car, always get the paper work for everything the seller says was done to the car. I bought it being told it was rebuilt 15k ago only to find out after 15k of my own miles, that it was put together completely wrong w/ all sorts of 4runner years. Ended up getting an expensive rebuilt w/ a new passenger head, water pump, timing belt, rod bearings...the list of parts was 3 pgs long.

10/08 - Sliders On


I decided to have them come out a little father that most people's do. It makes it somewhat of a pain to get out of (especially with snow/mud all over them), but the thinking is that if/when I get them hung up on something they'll keep the obstacle farther away from the body.

Everything's painted now but a lot of it has been getting ripped off due to the cinder's all over the road hear in Flag.

Damn good cell phone pics (taken with the LG Voyager if you're wondering)
Nothing like big block domestics...


Ended up winching it into the mud further and then pulling it out sideways and then backwards.






Def glad I have an ARB...and a snatch block
