thing looks sick, when you gettin new front tires?

 

To be honest those all terrains have decent tread on them right now so I'm just going to ride those till I find a really good deal like I did with the rears.

Got some pics of the Load Warrior Net and the camera mount. Think I might make a little video demo to see what The videos will look like. I'll post it.

That's awesome! At first, there's no distortion in the mic... then when it's facing backward, it does scat out a bit. Just curious how the pro's solve that? lol. They have wind shields over the mic or something?

 

That camera is sick man, now you can take video of your commute to work man i hope your camera has some sort of protection w/ those dirt bike trails you like to take

 

RONI-

Glad they worked out for you...they're definitely a ride quality improvement. I like the camera mount too...you painter's......have way to much time on your hands.

To be honest that video was just to show how the camera will mount and see if there is much shaking. The camera I used in the video is not the camera I will be using when I make my next video. I'm just waiting for the charger to come in for the other camera. It's not a much better camera just a "hand me down" I got from my cousin. I have no idea how the pros deal with the noise of the wind but I'm sure going 5mph up a steap rocky hill will sound much better

Dude I think the cameras battery would die long before I even got to work!!! Their just characteristic scratches Nick don't be scared of the bush!!!

Yeah well can't paint in the wind...........it shows in our paychecks...

Have a great Thanksgiving, man!

 

Hey Happy thanksgiving man!

 

Roni.....as from Flagstaff, where've you been? Absent from the boards. Brother, still haven't for gotten about your bumper/ tire carrier either. Things were nasty busy up till Christmas...then a week off; 2 days with family up in Greer for Katie and her first time with snow. Totally awesome to watch her just play. Anyhow, I need to build some sort of partial roll cage, similar to the 1st gen 4Runner, but with my twist on it. Then help catch up on ALL the backed up orders. Once we do that, I'll make time for the deal we had going...that is if you still want too.

Yoooou should get 33" tires

 

I agree with this guy! Glade you decided to throw a coat of wax on that thing. Those pics turned out really nice,you got my vote on the 2013 Yotatech Calender if you decide to submit your rig

 

I love how clean your rig is!! It looks soo good lol

 

Thanks guys.


33's would look pretty B.A but I would need gears for sure I'm slow enough as it is now! We all know how expensive gears and tires are so that will have to wait.

-RONI-

 

love the color, love the rack, love the wheels, (although i would go 8" wide) and love the tires (both km2'ss and at's), love the bumper, love the motor tranny combo... other then the wheel width and lack of skid plates, sliders and lockers it is exactly what i would build. love it man, and i miss the south west..

 

Nice looking 4Runner. We've almost got the same look going on. Keep up the good work, it looks awesome.

As for gears, check around to see if anyone is parting 4Runners. I picked up mine out a v6 auto (4.88) for $300, front ifs and whole rear axle. I know there is a guy who parts them up here (Prescott). I can see if he's got any parts if you're interested.

 

33"s and 4.10s isnt that bad, IMO. I ran it like that for a year before she died. I could easily get around packed full of camping gear, stuff on the roof-rack and 3 large friends and 6% grades.

 

Damn man! Your truck is lookin damn good! a bit has changed since i saw it last. its looking clean with that wax job too! might be the first time ive seen it so shiny! lol

 

Thanks for all the love!

Sliders and skidplates will come in time. My Aussie locker serves me well but I wouldn't mind adding a front selectable locker.



Thanks man. Lets see your rig!

That's a good price. I will keep that in mind.

I feel under powered as it is. I don't think I could do 33's with stock gears in a 22re.


HHHHUUUUUHHHHH KEITH

thanks bro. Plan on doing clay bar pretty soon...make it look all kinds of sparkly!

Have you done anything new to your rig?

Do you have a build thread?


----------------------------------------------


Okay so I decided to remove my anti-sway bar. Its pretty beat up and loose anyway. 2 of the bolts to one of the brackets just snapped right off ugh..didn't make much difference on road.











I plan on doing a couple fairly easy trails tomorrow near sedona, Should be fun. Well see how it goes with no sway bar.


I did this whole post using my phone hope or works.
