Pics of my runner! 3" SS lift, 2" 4Crawler BL, Procomp Wheels, 33x11.50 Dick Cepek MT

Just a few shots I took real quick. I bought this 4runner 10 months ago and the idea was to make it a daily driver and not to mod it. Well its a daily driver but the mod bug bit my ass, lol. Well almost $5000 dollars later in mods lol;

Sonoran Steel 3" suspension lift
4crawler 2" body lift
1.5" SpiderTrax Wheel spacer
Pro Comp 8069 Wheels (16x8)
Dick Cepek Mud Terrain Tires (33x11.50 a.k.a. 285/75/16)
Stubbs Sliders (Coated in Line-X)
Sonoran Steel Shackle Hangers
Air Raid intake tube and Deck plate mod with K&N drop in filter
Full size spare with 5th pro comp wheel
Alot of recovery equipment (highlift jack, straps, etc, etc, etc


The sad thing is I still want to add a Front steel bumper, rear tire carrier, Winch, TRDSuperCharger, do 35x12.50 for the next set of tires, light rack, roof rack, stereo system, and a locker up front. Ill have more money in this damn thing then I paid for the truck lol.

that looks really good! I'm debating putting a body lift on mine and after seeing yours, i'm leaning more towards it...

Also, i see you got a full size spare to match, i don't really see it underneath the truck. Is it inside? Or were you able to tuck it underneath?

The tire wouldn't fit under the truck so it sits inside with all my recovery gear. I'll get a pic tomarrow of the set up I have.

Very nice looking rig! Looks like it'll work great as a DD and should do well off road too.

I agree with the guys above me. This is just a gorgeous rig. It looks perfect for beng a DD and also doing a little recreation on the side. It's really beautiful. Nice job!

Awesome ride dude. I'm thinking about swapping out some black Tacoma TRD wheels and bigger tires for my Limited rims that I have on now. Black wheels on a silver 4runner look really nice, and the sliders set it off too.

Cool Tow hitch/butt-leg/a$$-foot

The 4th picture shows the truck standing on it's butt-leg. This device is useful in keeping the truck with the rubber-side-down.

Some fabbers out there cut a hole in the bumper on those 3rd Gen Runners and flipped the butt-leg mount upside-down for better clearance. This way the ass-foot/butt-leg doesn't scrape or make contact with the earth as soon.

The truck is nice!

I did this. Some of the bumpers of that design have bolts that allow an easy flip, some don't. With the 2" body lift if his is flippable it might fit under the bumper, no cutting needed. Some measuring is in order if the bumper is the bolted flippable sort.

And nice truck!
