Looks great! I agree with the rest.....that rig will look silly with an overall 5 in lift and those tires. Need some bigger ones, especially after that BL.

oh yeah i'm DEFINITELY gettin bigger tires, i just thought that was understood, probably maxxis buckshots, but i can't decide on what size to get, what size will give me the best of both worlds w/ flex and size? before i was going to get 285/75's but w/o the 2" body lift

I guess it depends on how extreme you are planning on getting off-road......I'd either go 285 or 295.

Kind of a rude statement, having a bad day? I think it looks real nice man, good work. Can't wait to see how it looks when it's lifted and has new tires!

One step at a time. I agree, it looks good. Don't mind the haters!

Looks real nice. I've always liked the TJM/ARB style bumpers. I don't care that they are more expensive then a tube bumper. They make even a stock vehicle look bada$$ !

TWO THUMBS UP

I think with a lift and tires (maybe some sliders) you'll have a very capable(sp) DD/Trail Rig.

Looks good bro...glad to see you went w/ the T-15.

These bumpers are one heavy mother. Glad I had a buddy over to help with mounting mine. Oh and as you'll find, there are a lot of mods out there for these bumpers if you ever decide to start "tinkering" with it.

How soon are we going to see some lights on it??

I too like it, it'll be nice to see some bigger shoes and lift on it though.

What size tires are you running on there now?

Install seems pretty straight forward with these, good work. It sits pretty good without flares or trim on the fenders.

What was wrong with what I said? It's true. It is the nicest T15 on a stock 4Runner I've seen all day, though.

I give praise where praise is due, but it seems most others would give praise for someone putting on a pair of pants correctly or making a bowl of cereal by themselves...

rock slide- yeah i'm already thinking about what to do w/ it, got a firestik, gonna put that on there, DEFINITELY getting lights soon, might do the hi-lift jack mounting on there, but these are all until after i lift it, the tjm set me back so much that i couldn't buy my lift(s),

skrillah- i'm running stock tires right now, sport king a/t, they're good for muddin, but that's about it, can't wait to get some bigger tires on there, i think after working tmo i should have enough money to buy the lift

midget 96- find another thread

i saved up a long time for this tjm and i'm proud of it, i'll be posting my lift pics too, and any other mods i do
