Fightman80's 1998 4Runner Build-Up Thread
#1
Well, this month marked the 6yr aniversary of my buying the 4Runner, which I have affectionally named "Mean Green". (corny I know) I was feeling a little nostalgic, and therefore thought I might post up some pics of the buildup.
This 1st pic, is the oldest picture I have of her, but I've already added the Nerf Bars, Front Light bar, and the light covers.

Here's a close-up shot of the grill insert I made up out of some mesh:

The next thing I did, was the Side window visors and get the TRD Decals:

Here's the finished product:

Next up was the lift: Toytec 3" lift, 890 Rear Coils, Front Spacers, and diff Drop

Another mod, was the Deckplate:



Next was the Wheel and Tire Combo: Maxxis Bighorn 285's and Procomp Wheels.

The next thing was the Rear Tire Carrier:





After that, I decided to build myself a roof rack. I started out using Recycled Retail Clothing racks:



Once I finished building the roof rack, I made up some Light mounts, and mounted up so driving lights and reverse lights.....


I still need to wire them up, but you get the idea.
Some pics of the interior:



Here's a pic of the stock horns, I ended up replacing those with some cheap replacement Freeway Blasters, sorry no pics..

Here she is now, as of today:
