Got a chance with only an hour to spare to either get started on some installs or go stretch out my springs and stuff a little bit more... I chose the latter and did a video of the Cobra kit and what I will likely do, and then got down to a run of break and stretched it out a little bit again..... What you think?...( I will post the video in a little bit, it's still uploading )......

I've owned this for 2 years and I'm finally driving it again. New wheels and tires are getting me motivated to get some work done on it.

My topper is an A.R.E. as well, it's kinda heavy but I sure like it.

Nice, Noree! .... Might we have another Southern Kalifornia adventurer in our midst? LOVE those Wheels! I'd roll those for sure!

White lettering... I haven't done that for a long time but it doesn't look too bad on a white truck that doesn't have black wheels. Really nice looking truck man!

Noree your p.u. is awesome dude. Youre gonna have to come with Chef and I to a couple local off road trips man. Btw I like the 4Runner top. Looks cool. But howd you make the rear to have a swing out window?

Its a company that makes them to LOOK like 4runner tops..... But its a custom shell like Verns or others... A.R.E. ? I sure wish I had time to make a custom 4 runner top that popped up like a camper! That would be seriously cool! it would probably be too heavy to.

Thanks Redeth, yeah like Chef stated that it's an camper that I bought a while ago. It's kinda heavy since its fiberglass an all but I love it. Maybe one day I'll join you guys if I didn't have to work too much lol. Anyways here's the truck without the camper. Name:  WP_000441.jpg
