You should be fine, specially since u got Solid fron axle and dont mind getting dents. I ran it stock last year, had a unnoticable dent in the rear underside of the body, but besides that i was good.

 

An '87 is IFS. You'll still be ok though.

 

ur right, i thought he said '85

 

old f*rt!!! we still have leftovers,,ya' hungry??? later

I've been modding like crazy getting ready for May... Still have to get some sliders and a few others things, but I beleive my rigs ready !

 

Yeah, instead of 4Runner Jam, maybe it should be called: "Spring Mod Madness"


I'm in on the modding too, mostly for towing ability though.

Looks good Ernie! You might want to think about doing a 3" drivetrain lift while your at it, so you can have a flat undercarriage.

Chris

 

Are you serious?!?! Hell yeah I'm hungry. If you ain't gonna eat it, I'll scarf it down! LOL

You get the bedbar done yet? Tires there yet?!?! I gotta see it when you get those 35's on.

Do you know where I might acquire me a CO2 bottle for cheaps? Say, a 10-15 lbs. bottle.

 

stegall, is that your hunny in your avatar? is she coming??

here's a few more pics(hard to do in the garage in the dark!!!) i'm scared to ask about the drivetrain lift!!! how much,where from, and how difficult?? it could definitely come in handy fixing my shifter,battery cables, and a/c lines!! later


Ernie

 

Looking good!


Damnit, let's wheel! Wait a minute, my truck is all apart.

but really it's more like having my ride apart that is

 

wow ernie that is looking MEAN!

 

Man, I'm definitely jealous of those tires and rims. It looks great man!

As far the drivetrain lift, if I were you I'd email Roger Brown and ask him. I did mine with a buddy of mine, and it was pretty simple. It's going to make a huge difference once I get rid of the stock crossmembers, using the FROR skidplate/crossmember. I'd check it out for sure, if I was you. Your truck would be nearly unstoppable.

Chris

 

No kidding...

 

Looks GREAT Ernie !

What are your plans for the 32's ? They would look great on my runner
and provide a little more lift. They also would work for wheeling only
wheels and tires. Price ? - be easy on me now

 

What's up Caleb ?
You sure have made quite a few changes to the truck - looks good.

Not like the first trip at Tellico huh ? You going in May ?
Hope to see you there.

the wheels unfortunately have been spoken for,but i do have the tires to dispose of,maybe 20%(proly a stretch!!) tread left(good trail spares),and the full size spare which is the factory spare wheel with a mud king or some off brand mud terrain tire mounted on it. the spare has maybe 75% tread left,but has shallow dryrot cracks in the tread. all would make good spares or a start for someone who wants more tire but no $$$!! i'm thinking maybe $125 for all and i can try to deliver to tellico(truck's gonna be pretty full!) oh yea,thanks!! i must say i have been caught more than once today admiring it!!! now time to regear! later
