No real updates, I went to bed early last night. I have been alittle under the weather this week. Family in town from California this weekend, on top of Halloween with the kids so I don't expect to get much done. I do have a suprise project that I am going to try to work on if I can....but I'm going to keep it a suprise for now. Guess you will have to wait & see. lol
Hoping for the best on your oil leak fix man!

From: Bryan Tx,
I had some family in town & halloween stuff with the kids this weekend, but did manage to find a little time to work on the 4runner. I set out to try to straiten the bed floor, I was dented pretty bad and low on the driver side, making my new rear quarter panel not quite fit right at the back. This metal is alot thicker & stronger than the rest of the sheet metal, beating on it with a sledge got me no where.
My plan was to find a big tree and use a come-along. Not so many big trees in my yard, so I put it on the trailer & took it out to my dads place. We started by welding some angle iron tabs in the places we wanted to pull. 3 tabs total.
Used a chain to shackle a heavy chain to the tabs
Trying to think about how we could pull it up and out at the same time, my dad had a big idea.
We chained the front of the 4runner to a tree & hooked another chain to the tabs and pulled with the hyrdaulics of the tractor.
The results where great!

glad you got the bed all straightened out. A friend bent the frame of his pickup (chevy eww) and we just chained it to a tree and floored it in reverse, fixed that problem. Don't ya love it when the seemingly most stupid things work the best?
