Cleaned up the 4runner Sunday....probably the cleanest it has been in some time and the cleanest it will be for some time to come!

 

Fitted some new rubber today. I went with 31X10.5 (factory size) and it looks pretty good. Storms are running through here today so I will have to get some better pictures later.

 

fan-friggin-tastic 'runner man! The exhaust sounds great, and bonus points for stealin my tail lights! hah! Nothin like ditching the amber lenses on a truck thats so undeniably red! Keep up the good work on keeping it on the road! May she run for a million more miles.

 

Very nice work! I love the way the exhaust looks and sounds. The tires look great as well! Keep it up.

 

Thanks guys, I am really pleased with it overall. Still have a few things to fix and a few FARKLES to add.

Anyone know anything about the power antenna? I think the p.o. replaced the factory power with a cheap aftermarket. It growns and growels when it goes up and down and to be honest, with the reception it is pretty much worthless! I am considering a swap for a stationary antenna with a mast I can remove when I need to.

 

I have to tell everyone, I am really starting to get tired of pushing this damn truck.

I think the coil or igniter failed.....just died on the interstate and will not start now.

 

Check the wire to your pick up coil. My last 3vze died like that, and sure enough it was an intermittent short in wire to the pick up. Good luck.

 

I re-read my statement and noticed that I said it will start. It will not start, has not hit a lick since it quit today. I will keep the wiring in mind, I hope it's not that.

 

If I only had a brain....replaced the Engine Control Module from a donor vehicle.....it's ALIVE again!

 

Great looking truck!

 

This is one of my favorite builds, keeping it mild, but still very nice

 

Thanks guys....it really means allot. The Scarecrow is not a beast....but it is really starting to become the tool I need. I wired in the trailer wiring tonight after work, so I can pull the motorcycle / 4Wheeler trailers.

 

Great build Clocklaw! You have inspired me to pull the trigger on the long block. Hope you'll be around for questions in a few weeks.

 

Very VERY clean truck.
Not very often that you see a runner in THAT good of condition.

 

A friend of mine has been looking at striping my 4Runner....tell me what you think of this one:

 

I can't see your pic, but check out these strip kits.

I re-hosted the picture from another site, maybe it will be easier to see it....as for the factory stripes, they are still in good shape on the Scarecrow.
