I like the hell out of what you've done! Congrats on some hard work that came out looking nice! If you don't mind me asking where did you get the insert that the head unit installed into? I've got the stock 86 am/fm cassette and want to install my Cb and a new stereo in place of the monster that's in there now.

Take care and keep up the good work.

actually that was in there when i got the truck, but you can get them from www.crutchfield.com or your local wal-mart store.

yeah canadian tire or any place that sells cd players should have the inserts and wiring harness... nice blue runner you got there... im deciding what to do with my blue runner i love the color...

well its a factory option, so i guess either the guy who bought it new didnt get them or took them out before he sold it, but its never had the rear seat since ive owned it, kinda like it like that though, room for my subs, and still got plenty of room for my dog, or camping gear.

4banginRunner Sep 21, 2008 05:26 PM

dang a factory bulkhead 4runner

very nice!

olharleyman Sep 21, 2008 06:20 PM

I think it looks good but if it were mine I would change the wheels and turn the tires so they are blackwalls.

86blue4runner Sep 22, 2008 09:02 AM

thanks guys!

i know, im trying to get the funding for some black steelies, next time i get them rotated im gonna run blackwalls out.

I'd leave the lettering out since BFGs are one of the few tires with nice lettering and what you pay for them I'd show 'em off otherwise it's a nice classic.

yeah they do look good, but i still think it would look better with black rims to have the blackwalls out.

believe me, i know. haha. unemployed at the moment so no cash flow to afford the new steelies i want.

nice runner! looks nice and clean. i agree on the tire walls i hate the letters out unless it really goes with thelook of the truck.

Looks great. I'm a big fan of the roof rack look on the 4Runner. It gives it some nice sharp edges. I think your truck would look really good with black steal wheels.

The blue interior still reminds me of the V6 1992 4Runner I owned for one day. It instantly overheated and the clutch failed.

Truck looks good, but i think it would look alot better if you ditched that big faded stripe down the middle. the top set of stripes are fine though..
