Got new sliders on my 4Runner!!

My dad and I headed over to Tuscaloosa to see Brian of WabFab to have him weld on my 4X Innovations sliders that i purchased from him. We had an awesome time and it was great to meet Brian, he is a great guy to do business with. Very friendly and makes sure that whatever he is working on, he does it right the first time! Anyways, heres some pics of the sliders, I lost my Lug Nut Key, so i cant get the 33s on it til we get the lugs off.






Ok edited for pics with the 33s, it looks soo much better. Ill do the slider test in a couple days.

Looks great! Makes me wanna get my butt in gear and get mine on. Tranny went up, so the sliders were delayed. I also got mine from Brian, awesome guy to deal with and the sliders look great!!

Hrew or DOM?

I ordered a pair of HREW, from Wab-Fab. I chose the 'kickout' as well.


Can't wait till they get here!

Looks good Brandon and thank you for the kind words. Glad to see you guys made it back safely considering the weather. It was nice to meet you and your dad and I hope to see you guys again at SE4RJ4. I got the bikini kit stuff put together tonight and it will go to the powder coater tomorrow.

PS. Those sliders were made by Adam at 4xInnovations as I get sliders from several vendors.

I'm going to get some sliders too. What kind of lift on the front and how high? Just read the bottom of your post and got the answer. I've got the torsion bars and cut out A arms, just have to get the BJ spacers. Anyway, how much lift to you have on the front with that combo, 3" ?

Looks Awsome ! I can't wait to actually have some things on my truck to show off. I'm still runniing stock and going crazy. I'm really wishing I had picked up a 1st gen 4runner after seeing all the pictures and posts with them over the past couple of months.

Great looking truck BTW

Looks good. I've got the same setup on my Runner and I had a little issue with the kickouts getting me jammed on a tree. Probably just a freak thing, but it was still a pain.

I think it looks great with those tires myself

I'd like to know what you think of those Geolanders, I'm looking at getting a set of those in the A/T for my 4Runner.

hey thanks for the replies guys. the front lift is about 3-3.5. Id rather have the kickouts stuck on a tree rather than my 1/4 panel. The spare on top was given to me and the rim is a 15x10, the rims i run with the geolanders are 15x8. So far the Geolanders are awesome, they have performed flawlessy in every situation that i have been in. i have not yet gotten stuck with them. The tread design does a good job of clearing dirt and mud. I have also heard that they are pretty sticky on the rocks.

Looking good, so I'm guessing Toyota had the key you needed?
