Looks great SR5, looks like the truck is in great shape overall. What did you use to take your stripes off? I love the simplicity of plain white

Thats a really clean truck. I wish mine was still that clean.. As for the body parts you need, Id give Certifit a call, we used to use them down in SLC and they are really cheap. You have one up in Tukwila... I had to buy a bumper for a honda last summer while I was down in SLC and it cost me $19.00..

i used a knock off version of the 3M stripe remover, its half the price and works well, go to your local auto paint supplier they will have one

Looks great, you doing a build thread? One thing to do is get some lockouts on that, save ya some money on gas as high as it is now adays...

I had a 87 4wd truck and in 98 I t-boned a gal in an intersection and after insurance was taken care of I bought a 4runner inner doghouse, radiator support and inner fenderwells all still attached together for 200 and removed old one and installed new one and boom never could tell it was every totolled by insurance company, but It still had a clear title.
So I know totally what your going through on your new runner, It's a heck of a job, I bet it'll look great when your done!!!! Good luck and have fun!!!!

Don't skip out on the bearings dude. Its really easy to replace and its well worth the peace of mind. If it scares ya that much, I'm local and can help you do it.
