hey mikelime, that arb bumper, is that from a newer tacoma? It's not the same as the one i have for the older generation tacoma's and i know it's not the prado version...

 

My bumper was made in Thailand, brand name is 'Tiger', I bought it in panama for $800

 

Hey boggers do rocks too....lol











Edit: not me in the pic...lol

 

 

How much wood is that? 1/2 a cord maybe?

 

nah its not that much. just basically what you see. just enough for campin. but the rest of the back is filled with ice chests, camping gear, clothes and my dog lol. 1/2 cord might be too much weight but im not sure

 

Hells canyon oregon.

 

That's a very nice and capible looking rig exrunner. You have any more pictures or a build tread for it?

 

Thanks, I dont have a build thread. Its just my exploring/ hunting rig.
There are more pics somewhere in this thread.

 

My new to me 2000 runner! Sooooo stoked..after new plugs my next purchase is going to be a baja rack or sliders..

I know I know..too clean. I love clay bars






15" to Freedom!

 

it aint too clean! nothin better than a perrrrrrty runner! looks good though! awesome year! elocker?

 

Thanks man! Unfortunately no e-locker :/

 

still an excellent year! first toyota?

 

Yeah! Goin on the celebratory first camping trip to the central sierra this week, can't wait to test er out.

I took off the running boards and added flaps, any recommendations on important additions/mods for making it a more Sierra capable vehicle? I do mostly city driving, so I'd like to keep it as light/stock as possible.

 

oh you could search the threads and find all kinds of stuff. id just make sure you check your fluids, your battery and make sure you bring enough tools, maybe a tow strap, shovel, first aid, etc. you can never be too prepared. one thing i would suggest is a cargo bag from walmart. its like $20 and it holds more stuff than you can imagine! its also waterproof. i got like 8 blankets, 2 bags with a week's clothes, several coats, 4 pillows, tent, air mattress, and some other stuff and STILL had room!

you can see the bag on the roof in this pic

 

That seems like a really good lightweight alternative to a safari type rack! Although a low profile safari rack would look killer .

Tow strap and a box of tools are definitely high on the list.

 

oh yeah its just a cheap alternative. even with a safari rack, id still use the bag. it holds so much. id like to get a safari rack but no money right now lol. just bought an optima blue top

 

Here is my 97 3rd gen

 

Would either of these do?
