THE BOSS
I'm installing buckets and adding one of them ammo cans...Maybe a machine gun torrent on top of the cab for a water cannon.
I got another grenade but its not gutted any takers?
I was gonna use this as a shifter but too big n heavy...

What year truck do you have? I picked up a set of 92 SR5 4runner seats out of a junkyard for $75 (It took me forever to find gray ones, ) But they fit perfect in my 85 Xtracab. I liked the way it lifted me up like an inch from stock height and gave me that ol' lumbar support for the long journeys/trails.

lmfao. i read the first part of the sentence and thought "good excuse mr."

...yeah, thats why the runner seats fold down. at least 3 times the amount of space provided by the bench, and more comfortability.

It now has a real lock with a real key, and by that, I mean not one of those cheapy master locks with the tin foil key that just has 3 nubs on each side. The combo lock was temporary until the next time I made it into town.
