4 months later (pics)

Finally, 4 months later. My 4runner transformed from stock to this. I don't have much of stock pic.

- 3" Cornfed + lots of trimming.
- 17" MotoMetal 951 black.
- 285x70x17 BFG Rugged Terrance (bought used from my other truck -Titan -forum)
DeeZee roof rack. Very bad customer service. I do not recommend. 4 Rubber clips broke when open box. I called DeeZee and they said "Sorry, we can't do anything about it. You can ship the rack back at your own cost." I just live with it.
- Hitch bike rack - from previous truck (Nissan Titan)
- Skid Plate
- Exhaust cover. I will probably take it off and sell it.

It looks good. How do you keep it so clean, and unscratched looking??

I can't seem to keep my034runner clean to save my life. But it might be the wheeling every day off thing that keeps it dirty!

You need to tear off those pesky "Nerf bars" and replace them with some sliders and maybe a ShrockWorks front bumper!

Just a couple shots of my034runner to share with you.

The front and rear bumpers will be next. My wife still have not get over the fact I spent 15K plus of mods into my previous truck. I am slowly getting it to the way I like it.

I am into car detailing. I washed and detail my SUV and other cars all the time. That's how I relax.:pat:

If you're going to get a front bumper, dude, the ShrockWorks bumper smokes the ARB. I contacted them in February after I found a mention of them on T4R.org. Anyway, they did R&D and production and delivery BEFORE ARB finally came out with theirs.

These bumpers are better designed, have better approach angle, more attractive and are less expensive than ARB.

I second my034Runner's support for the Shrockworks bumper and sliders. The workmanship and design is outstanding.

Thank you. I will keep that in mind. Probably around April time frame when I get my tax return.

Dude, you'll real dig the hell of a SW front bumper, we do!! It's by far, the absolute sickest one made for our trucks yet!!!

I love the sick look, but the much much much much much improved approach angle is amazing.

Now if we can get them to build us a rear bumper I'd be happy.

Or maybe Bruce can build one like Lance's again! But not just one, 20, 50, who knows how many people would want one. But I know of about 20 people right off the bat who would buy one.


I'm sorry dude, we keep getting off topic here.
