Did up some limb risers
Perfect day to give some attention to the 4runner. Decided to go up to Lowe's and do a little hardware shopping and come up with some limb risers. Ended up painting it all black to blend it in, overall pretty happy with it! Cost a little under 50 bucks and 3 hours constructing it best.
Coating all the pieces, in retrospect I should have done this last
lower mount u bolt base anchor
upper mount p shape clamp anchor with adjuster
all done

They are used for what the title says. Limb risers. So when you hit people they dont break your windsheild
But really, just lifts branches so they dont mess up your rig as much.

yeeaaaaa... I feel pretty retarded. I got it after I posted it and was like screw it, I'll leave it haha Wish they had a smiley for "way over my head" lol
I kinda like it but I personally wouldn't sport it. I give Miller a month before he gets rid of 'em

Bingo bango, well aesthetically speaking I actually like them but to each their own. Mostly for functional sake but I don't mind running em, just another reason for everyone to stare

I was one of the first to run the 883 in the states, I was used as a guinea pig to confirm spring rate, lift, firmness, etc. Maybe 2+ years now

I like 'em. Though I think i woulda done them a bit differently. Are you at least going to chop off the excess lengths of the u-bolts?--would really make it look cleaner I think.
It also looks like they may interfere with opening the hood all the way...? I wouldn't like to have to undo them to open the hood...but that's just me. Perhaps you could mount them off to the side of the rack more somehow...
