I like the color! Overall though, it has a lot of potential!

Looks 2wd...? Thats still okay, stick a locker in that rear end and you should be able to go where a lot of 4wd vehicles can go!

Good luck with it!

Looks good, you should definitely remove the mud flaps and get a rear spoiler, the black one that usually comes stock on a 4Runner.

yea i took off the keychain that was hanging up so now its just my visor.

thanks about the exhaust im gonna record a sound clip pretty soon and put up. and as far as the spare tire i just stuck a cover over it and put it in the back



since its only 2WD i'm getting a brushguard and taillight guards put on for christmas, i know alot of people on here dont like them but as its mostly gonna be on pavement i figured i wouldnt need an ARB bumper or anything to extreme.

doesn't sound like a bad idea to me and i would've done that with the tire, but i had a system then...aand i'll definitely like to hear that sound clip...btw, what kind of exhaust do u have?

depending on where you live, you might want to go with a "hidden" type if system, as that's what i plan on doing for my next one, as my 1st system just got stolen about 3 months ago... but good choice with the flowmaster...

I would find a way to bolt that spare down if you are going to drive around with it in the back. If you ever have a bad wreck, it will be a huge projectile that could take your or your passengers head clean off! People have been killed by much smaller items flying forward...

IMO- I would take that brush guard money and put it toward some BFG's or other nice tires. Tail light guards are kind of an 90's thing. But to each his own.

Actually you are correct about the box of tissues and myth busters (I forgot about that and thanks for correcting me...I will edit my original post). However, Myth Busters proved not that small items won't kill you, but that items of small mass won't. I would not rule out all small objects, depending on sharpness and the mass of the small object. For instance a nerf ball would not harm you, but a shot put would kill you! And they are about the same size... It all depends on what it is, how fast it is going and most importantly where it hits you. The spine is pretty vulnerable if hit just right.

So don't have a tissue box full of rocks or sand laying around!

and by the way...JUST BOLT THE TIRE DOWN!
