Thanks Terry and yes I couldn't agree more.

 

Love how you can see the sliders imprinted into his grill. lol

 

Right! Haha

 

Good to hear about the axle! And it's obvious that body armor is not only meant for the trail! Haha

 

Yep body armor is multifaceted! Haha

 

After looking over truck intently since the accident, I did notice my brake MC is leaking a little in the cab. Couple drips of fluid are seeping out of the piston.

Looks like it's time to upgrade to the 1" MC. New challenge accepted 😜

 

Nice work on the speaker cabinets, they turned out awesome! Glad your 4runner wasn't seriously damaged in the accident!

 

Thanks rustED. Yes I am very pleased and relieved.

 

Well I had a derp moment...brake is in the middle John, clutch is on the left. Right. Got that now

It's my clutch MC that is going out i think. Fluid is black and leaking into the cab. For what it costs to replace, I'm just gonna but a new one and a slave cylinder too. Maybe I just get the 1" brake MC as well haha. I will need it when converting to disc in the rear.

 

You will love the brake upgrades, it's literally a night an day difference. I have the Sky Manufacturing rear disk swap, nothing but nice things to say about it! I added a manual proportioning valve from FROR and deleted the LSPV and the brake line that runs from the front brakes to the LSPV.

 

Nice! Yeah I keep hearing great reviews about the MC upgrade and disc conversion. I will look up the Sky kit. LC up north has a kit. Pretty spendy though, about $400 or so. I will also need to decide what to do about the ebrake. Its either line lock or the t-case caliper. I like the latter because I can use my stock ebrake handle. Keeps it all oem inside.

 

Time to install the sr5 front seats!

 

And done.

 

Cush lookin! New foam too? I guess that's how it works

 

Yessir! I did notice one area where they could've added more. I spoke to the owner at the place and they said bring it back in, we can stuff some more padding in the driver seat

 

Gotcha! I love my sr5 seats!!

 

I have a few changes lined up for the next week or so:
Clutch mc and slave replacement
Brake mc upgrade
EGR delete
Short shifter
Trans and t-case fluid change

I should have the lights all wired by the end of the weekend so I will get some photos of their output.

 

very nice build. clean! subscribed!
btw i really like my rear-cargo lighting if you want another idea

I really like your rear boxes, i've thought about building in a sub for years and just haven't done it. well done

 

Thanks man! You have a nice build going yourself! Horsepower is on my list but later down the road. My engine now is ok but I could definitely do with more power. I've debated a large engine swap but I really want to keep the 22. Not too many people build them up. I quite sure I will do a 2.7 stroker with a mean cam. I should be able to get 200 hp.

I like that interior light! I've been thinking about what I can do to up the light output inside. My idea before seeing yours was to use a single rigid a-series low intensity light. They come with curved mounts for bars. I will definitely wire it up to the deck light switch. Keeps it more OE looking.

 

The only thing that I don't like about that light is that it hangs down. Here is another sleek mount that a guy on ih8mud did. Scroll to post #2. I have all the parts, I just need to do it!
