thanks guys. lets see.... the only advice that i really have is dont cut off too much like i did. if you leave part of the window frame then it would be a lot easier to fill in. kinda like how fills is. but even though i cut a little bit too much it still wasnt that bad

heres some pics of the inside

decent amount of space behind the seats

also put lapbelts in the rear since the mounts for the shoulder belts were cut out

what do think you got for weight savings? looks like it might have lifted more in the rear.

ya the back did go up a little bit i almost need to move the shackle hangers forward a little bit but im not really sure how much weight i took off overall. i would have to say around 150 maybe 200 pounds but its hard to say for sure.

It's different i'll give you that! when i do my chop, i'm going to keep the original rear window frame and make it all functional. Yours is coming along nicely. Can't wait to see it finished

whats with the sheetmetal around the fenders?

Dude, very, very well done.

I've seen one or two chopped 4Runners around here and your's is by far the best one I've seen, especially with the rear slider on the back. Good work.

sheetmetal around the fenders?? you must be talking about my sweet fender flares. those are only on there because this is my dd and i kept geting pulled over because my tires stuck out too far thats also why the bumpers have extensions on them incase anyone was wondering.

well today i went to the sheetmetal place and they are making me some pieces for the bed rails and those will be done tomorrow. and i also bedlined the insides of the fenders so i dont have to worry about anything rusting. i used some duplicolor truck bed liner and i love it i think it looks way better than the herculiner that i have in the interior and the best part is it only4 costs $40.00 a gallon instead of 100 for herculiner. heres a pic

thanks man

Very nice!!!

I'm doing the same myself. I plan to just completely cut the rear off and make a flat bed big enough to hold a tool box and a spare tire.

4rnnr33

ya that would be cool and that was actually my original plan to make a flatbed

4rnnr33

well finally got an update.
built a spare tire carrier heres some pics
it sits down in the bed or i can fold it up if i need to put anything in the back


the hinges are 1/4 in plate with holes drilled through it and leaf spring bushings pressed inside a tube with a spring bolt holding it in place

i still need to add a shovel, axe, and highlift mount.

woops that last pic was supposed to be this
