Hi all, just got my 1999 3rd generation 4Runner SR5 4WD on 3/28/07. I would like to get started on the mods. Anyone know of any good 4x4 shops in San Gabriel Valley area in SoCal? I am a complete newbie at this, but would like to do the following:

1) Lift the Runner. (This is the part that I have the least knowledge or none.)
2) New tires.
3) Safari racks.
4) Lights.
5) Fender Flares.
6) Bumper.
7) Navi and sound system.

I don't think I am going to do tons of off-roading, but I like to know if I ever venture out to the country, at least I am covered. Besides, nothing looks better than a lifted Runner.

Attach are some pictures. Thx. (How to upload photos so it's not a link?)

Man that thing looks nice. Don't see very many of that color. Must've put a nice big dent in the pocket.

You forgot a mod - remove running boards.

Nice find....may I ask if it was a private sale or through a dealer?

As stated, lose the running boards.

And along the same lines, don't worry about fender flares. Gain all the clearance you can (in every direction) by losing all unnecessary obtrusions.

At a used car lot in Studio City/Hollywood near Universal Studio.

I think you did, I was heading to Fountain Valley on Sunday, from 57 South bound to 22.
