Just came in on the truck around 11 AM.

2000 4Runner tastefully modded.

I got really lucky. I paid for it on Fri, and happend to find a trucking company to pick it up Sat! I had read so many horror stories on shipping. Things really turned out great. I drove it and it drives nice. Just need to get a couple things buttoned up and some of that NY rust cleaned up. Until then, it will be sitting in the garage.

Any suggestions on what I can do to slow down/stop the minor rust underneath?



The pup's aleady getting attached to it.

 

por 15 Rust Inhibitor

 

nice truck dj. i saw another thread that it was for sale. congrats on the new runner!!!!

 

I like it!

lets see the wheeling pics!

 

Thanks guys. I'm stoked!

I had thought about POR 15 but I'm looking for something that's easy to spray since I will be underneath the truck and some areas won't be easily accesible. POR 15 is usually sold in cans right? Also, I read if you don't use it or most of it in 1 sitting, it turns into a solid. Link.

Anything else that's maybe not as good as POR 15, but still good?

 

Nice work! Is that Desert Dune? That is my all time favorite 4Runner color.

As far as rust issues, I've heard people say those Rust-o-leum (spelling?) you can pick up at Autozone/Pepboys/etc. work pretty well.

 

Sweet lookin 4Runner!

 

can you post a picture of the rear bumper?

 

that things sweet. How bout just some diy spray on undercoating?

 

Congratz on the new ride. Very Niiice

 

Yeah man great looking truck.. Love the dog too!

 

Thanks for the compliments guys. I haven't really driven since I got it. I want to get the rear diff fixed and also the starter is taking a few times to turn, so I learned that means new contacts. Will hopefully do that today, and the diff this week. Other than that, it doesn't really need anything else. Interior is really clean too.

cackalak han, yes it is the desert dune color. One of my favo 3. Desert dune, anthracite and green. I like the big limited flares on it too. Looks awesome.

sn0wrunnin, I don't have any of my own pics, but I'll post one up from who I bought it from.

Will probably get started on the rust this wknd.

 

Youre gunna kill that spare tire if you get on the rocks....

 

Lol... yeah. It's already off. I currently have a thread in the classified section trying to find a matching rim for this spare.

 

get that diff fixed and wheel the heck out of it!

Oh...and you may want to clean up some of that wiring mess lol.

I don't know what it is with east of the mississippi guys and their wiring....

 

i like it i bet your way excited!

 

Body colored flares drool

those blend very nicely to give it a clean look on the sides

can't wait to see this in person.

I am ready to do starter contacts myself...

pleasure to meet you

 

awesome truck. I like the bumper. And sweet dog too. I used to have a boxer. they're great dogs.

 

Did you already get the diff fixed??? I pm'd you about it last week.

 

Oh shoot Scotty, sorry man, I thought I replied to that msg but I see I didn't. I could not get a day off during the week to take it to your shop. I ended up dropping it off with someone who I met through COTTORA. Should be done tomorrow.
