All right guys under the marketplace I have listed my 4:88 front and rear thirds for sale. I think the 33's are going to be a while, and I have a couple of other things I want to accomplish first. I also didn't get any takers on the Warn x8000i winch either so.

1. Put the winch on the 4runner, need to get cable either steel or synthetic ($) either way. Also need a mounting platform. I have a front receiver for a multimount, but thinking about a bumper.

2. New cat back system. Jegs seems like they are selling a Dynomax system and can't beat the price right now.

3. Buy the OME 2" spings and BJ spacers and install but just keep the 31 BFG's I have and wait until I get more money to do tires and pickup another set of 4:88's then.

4. Other ideas?

I am not quite sure which direction to go. I bought the 4runner about 3 months ago. The 4runner will be used mainly here in Oregon and will see mud, snow and some good loose hill climbs. I am just at a loss as to where to start. This thing is in stock condition now. The cat back is to redu the crappy home grow exhaust the previous owner did. The winch would be nice to have as insurance, the lift would be nice to get out of the way. Your advice, on what to do, or what additions you would recommend would be appriciated.

I bought the 4runner with a 3.0 ( yes I have owned them before, and I know they are not the best motor). This one has 190,000 miles, new headgaskets about 30,000 miles ago, I changed the timing belt, water pump, and misc other items. I did a compression test with a range of 172 to 175 between every hole. The engine runs strong, it has no error codes thrown, it is a 5 spd. The over all condition on this 4runner is excellent, everything works and is in very nice condition.

I do have to say that I most definetly notice the difference in acceloration between the truck and 4runner with the V6 engine. I just want a good family rig that can do mild to moderate trails. Looking for advice from those who have these rigs and dont mind sharing their thoughts

Thanks

Don
