3rd gen T-shirts

Hey guys just wondering if you guys might have any interest in a 3rd gen
T-shirt. I have a great contact in the screenprinting industry and could get us pretty sweet deal. I would definately need some help on the design as I am far from an artist. If someone would be willing to help out on the design I would give them their shirt at no cost. I can get any manufacture of T-shirt, any color, any size. I would appreciate any and all feedback. Another guy on here has done them for the 1st and 2nd gen and now talking about the Tacoma but no 3rd gen despite numerous request. I am not trying to take his idea just trying to move forward on the request of several other yotatech members.

Yes, I would like one! I am sure that someone on this board has sweet artist skills (or knows someone who does) who can draw up something cool. I would prefer one showing the 3rd Gen in its intended setting...off road (not at a soccer field)!! :-D

Yea I think the ones Steve has is more of an advertisement for his business and it just so happens to have a 3rd gen on the back. I am looking to do one just for the sole purpose of the 3rd gen 4runner.

I know - I was kidding.

Actually, if the design is cool, I may be interested.

How about one not showing the suspension. Several 3rd Gens have undergone the knife, and many others have not. Maybe we could come up with a slick design showing the overall body shape that is destinctive to a 3rd gen and CB mount........

just a thought


Here is my 4Runner for the Moab 4Runner Foray in 2004. It has the 3rd Gen shape and some scenery in the back ground.




Somebody was also working on a pic for the CO4RJ06 and had a really cool pic of a 3rd gen, black outline of it, or something.

Hey man I like that design. I think that would look cool on the back and maybe some type of smaller design on the front. Keep the ideas coming! Thanks for the input guys.

That is a cool design, and I like the idea of being 3rd gen specific, but not "mod" specific.

The other option (and I'll just throw this out there) is to show a bone stock 3rd gen. Let's face it - the third gen turns 10 this year. It may start to become "old school" soon!

i like steve's sonoran steel 4runner shirt.

the shirt should show some evidence of mods, at least a lift. stock 3rd gen 4runners are boring.

While Steve's got a Solid Axle Conversion (SAC), it shows off his Solid Axle Suspension (SAS) specificly. Having this on a T-shirt representing all 3rd gens would indicate that all 3rd gens should be like his. In my humble opinion, i would not put on Land Cruiser front suspension with shackles in the front. Not to mention, his design is used to promote his business.

Not everybody has the fabricating skills to install a SAC. Having a picture of a 3rd gen with a SAC eliminates all other 3rd gens who either don't have the money, skills or desire to put on a SAC.

We need to be more generic with the 3rd gen design so we can include all 3rd gens, not just ones with Solid Axle Conversions. IMHO

I'm looking for a design by the TTORA for the TTORA AZ run in 06. It was very cool. They had designs for the front and back.

3rd Gen. Shirts

I can do a 3rd Gen. shirt for you guys. I've had multiple requests
to do them. I think a built, flexing runner would be cool.

You can check out the other shirts I've done here:

hlpressley, let me know what you want me to do.

PRF I don't mind you doing the shirts I just want one. I don't care who does them. I know I can get a good deal on them and would pass it down without any markup. I am not trying to make a living off of T-Shirts I would just like to have one myself and I will have one if I just have to get 5 made and keep them all myself. I ask you numerous times if were going to do one before I started this thread and you said no time soon because you were working on other designs. Once again I don't care just let me know so I can delete this thread if you are going to do them. IMO opinion I think you should have done the 3rd gen one a long time ago due to tremendous request from other guys here on the forum.
