Just got it last week. So far i have pulled off the running boards, and added some new bfg's (265/75/r16)

Its a 97 2.7 5speed with 4.556 gears.

 

I like it...looks just like mine well before the mods. I suggest the herculine mod, those tires will eat up your rocker panels. Its a mean simple 4runner for sure. How many miles and what'd you pay for it? Mine is an auto, wish like hell I had the 5spd!

Check out my pics of my truck and the herculine idea....

Nice Herculine job;I'm considering this for a mod this summer.

 

I'm a big advocate of it, anyone who doesn't have running boards would benefit greatly from this mod. Looks rugged, not real hard to do either...kind of messy though.

edit: the pic of my rig is on a crappy day. Its hard to see the herculine job and what it looks like as a whole with that picture.

 

interesting line skrillah, if you don't mind me asking why didn't you use the indenture running the length of the cab as a tapeoff level?

 

Honestly, I'm not sure...I guess I just felt it was too high and didn't look "factory" enough. I think this way it looks more...well I don't know I just like it more..lol. I did see your rig and didn't think it looked bad so I don't know.

edit: didn't mean to hijack your post "crolison"...just wanted to give you an idea...;-)

 

Payed 7700 for it and it has 94400 miles on it. I like the herculine job.

Skrillah are those q-towers how your yakima is attached?

 

and what type of brush guard is it?

 

They are Q-towers that I have yes.

The brush guard is by a company called MUSSA...will soon be upgrading to something a little beefier this summer I think. Time for a TJM of sorts...

 

 

Love the 5spd

 

I've always really liked the crome fender trim. Nice lookin runner. Those tires are a nice fit too. I didn't know they clocked the 2.7's. I guess to save space?

 

Yes, Another black 4Runner! Nice looking '97... smoke those front windows though...

 

nice and a 5spd is the way to go

 

If you need a set, you can have mine for the cost of shipping. See my thread here:

I always kick myself for not getting a black or white rig, I like my color but I would trade it for a black/white one.

 

Clean rig buddy congrats! I love the darker colored Runners. Great deal too!
