RIP green Carnage monster

I've got an extra W56 5 speed tranny in the garage if you need one for the Turbo

The rear bumper was the rear crossmember, so it went with the frame. My GF's dad is building a 4Runner too, so he took a lot of the pieces. I think he might try to re-use the rocksliders, front bumper and part of the rear crossmember.

Yep, Rest In Pieces. I should have had it ground up into little pieces and sprinkled them all over Carnage, but for some reason I don't think that would have been the trucks last wish. I think it hated that trail more than anyone!

I figured I should end this the right way. There are times I miss the old the old 4Runner but it was the right choice to start over. In case you have not seen the new rig, it's working awesome!

Well thats was a great read. I'm working on toning my 4 runner done as i speak. I have come to the conclusion i like driving my truck on the road bout as much as the trails. Its funny when i started reading this, i was like man i should do that to my truck, heck its already beat up, nothing like yours though. Then i get to the last page, and thats perfect. Thanks for the write up man.
Doug
