hey lee! it looks as though you have just enough clearance and tire to back up onto a curb while parking in the city! how many road miles were those good for? reason i ask is because something tells me that is all they are going to see. haha! but don't worry! you have THE BADDEST city truck i have seen thus far in the area. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!



just kidding. looks good. but i do agree about the white letter needing to go.

 

form follows function.

now that i have a lift and good meats, ill be offroading as much as possible!

 

ride is smoother shock-wise, tougher tire-wise.

i love it. didnt take any measurements, no.. didnt think ahead!

 

Lee you had best get that thing dirty, you know it gets bad when Flooksy is mocking you, all we need now to fully remove your manhood is for Pat to come harass you! (jk you guys, you did good)
That thing is SWEET!

 

Depending on how serious you start wheeling, that brushguard is going to cause more damage than it stops.

The lift looks much better....and I am kinda partial to the black myself!

 

hahah. you all like to jab a knife in my heart, then pat me on the back

nah, im kiddin... thanks guys.

 

hey lee!

tires and lift look really good! 86 the running boards and brush guard, then wheel away. i didnt let my old toyo open country tires stop me from wheeling, i got stuck a few times but i got through more than the people i wheeled with though i should! im heading off tomorrow to do some wheeling with my new meats on the canadian shield, going to try airing down to 15 or so and see what the old girl can do.

lets see some pix of you putting your rig through its paces!

lee

 

how much did all that cost you?

 

Nice setup Lee, glad to see you finally got that thing lifted, looks much better now! And like everyone has already said, pull those running boards off! Man black 4Runners just look mean, but maybe i'm a little bias

 

Awesome Lee, it looks great!

 

I really like those tires. Very cool looking.

 

Where abouts?

 

haha! intrepid! i don't think pat can really harrass anyone! but then again, he can say that his runner is shinier than lee's....that could be the harrassment i suppose. and just so everyone knows....i have invited pat to join the run in july. whether it be with me again, or with his (probably in mine). clutch is getting done on tuesday, so i am good to go. lee, i am just busting your balls. it looks good, and perhaps i am just envious of the lift (already have the billies, and would personally rather the bfg a/t's or the revo's). perhaps one day...i too shall be lifted.... but i don't know if there will be time (a little quote from old school).

 

Looks real good. I kinda like it with the white lettering out, just looks different since no one is doing that any more. I agree though, ditch the running boards and get an ARB or TJM and you'll be set.

 

Lee,

Truck looks great!!!...so whats your impression on how it drives?...and where you as surprized as i was at the ride height (didn't think it was gonna sit that high?)

-B

 

I think it all looks great, white letters and all. As far as the running boards, you won't realize the difference it makes until you actually take them off. I had no idea how much of a difference it was going to make, but I was blown away! Take it easy on those nasty "trails" now man!

 

If you're going to keep the brush guard for a while, at least get some Hella 500's for it!

 

thanks for all the compliments guys! wooo.. lots to respond to:

yes, then you wont shy away from trails

a lot!

tires - 645
springs - 400
shocks - 292

i agree on black runners

right before i pulled into my lot at work today, a guy in a black runner at the light honked, and asked me to roll my window down. "is that lifted?? holy crap!"

i think hes gonna lift his now

i know, thats my next step, get new fogs. i need to chill on spending for a little bit though.

 

hella 500's are on ebay for $69 and there's an ad in the classified's for a set for $40 w/o the wiring harness. get the $40 set, take your old fogs off the brush guard and just wire the hellas up to that harness and you're done w/ it....
