new...ish guy

I'm not new to the forum, but I just got a, new to me, '85 4runner. It has a 3" lift with 33x12.50 Geolanders. It has a Soft Topper soft top, Marlin Crawler rear bumper and an ARB front bumper.

That's quite the offroad machine.
Is that rhino lining or line-x on the bottom.

The bedliner on the lower half of the body is el-cheapo roll on bedliner. I don't have anything crazy planned for it seeing that it is my DD and there's nothing to intense around here. I plan on doing a hy-steer kit and 4.88 gears with a rear ARB locker (when I have the $). I want to go with 4" leaf springs that are more flexy (found out that the front tires rub under full stuff lol) along with new shock towers and some good shocks. A front axle rebuild is on that list with chromo axles.
It's going to be a slow build because I'm a poor college student. But first thing's first there's some good sized rot holes in the drivers side floor pan I gotta fix once the weather gets a little warmer.
