HHIRunner's LT SAS Mallcrawler 4Runner Build

none of the v8's here on maui

 

So since I don't have any new updates on the 4runner and won't until Christmas, here are some random pictures from Europe



















More to come as I go more places and take pictures that don't end up really blurry

 

JAKE! You're supposed to be studing, not making the rest of us want to be in Europe.

 

What is studying? I only have 1 class that actually assigns work

 

Realized I fell behind on the build and just kinda jumped forward to wheeling pics, so here is a post of my bumper being built

May 31st and June 1st my SOS Concepts front bumper was built. Paint should happen on June 5th and then my 20" lightbar will be mounted on top as well as Spot beam cubes in the fog light cutouts.

 

Subbed. this thing is badass. Windrock was fun!

 

So on December 11th I flew back to the United States for Christmas break, and the next morning, 11 hours after I got home to be exact, my Dad and I set off to Oliver Springs, Tennessee to go to Windrock Offroad Park in my 4runner and his new 2015 Tacoma TRD Offroad. On the way there we met up with Eddy from SOS Offroad Concepts, and two other friends of ours for a weekend of (freezing cold) camping and wheeling. All in all it was an awesome weekend and a great way to get back into America culture after having not seen it for 4 months. Trail 15 was the highlight of the trip as it was the only Double Black Diamond trail we ran, and yes there was damage.


And knowing that half of you probably didn't read any of that, here are some pictures.

 

About time you posted pics haha. That was a good trip. We gotta hook up again when you come home in August

 

I've been working on the GoPro video for a little while, it came out awful so I scratched it and decided to just get these done.

 

I forgot you even brought the GoPro. You enjoying being back on US soil?

 

Its pretty great, surprisingly ready to go back though.

 

Yeah I kinda figured you would be. Being back home is fun for a week or two then you get bored lol

 

Looking through this was fun! Subbed!!

 

Total Chaos Arms should be going on today or tomorrow, unfortunately I'm overseas thus I won't be able to take pictures of the process as I'm not doing it.

And a quick question for anyone, I'm starting to think its about time to start looking into On Board Air. Lockers and Gears are definitely something I'll be adding hopefully sooner than later so OBA is more or less necessary for that. Then also the obvious part of airing up tires, but I also want something that can run air tools. The obvious first compressor that comes to mind is the dual ARB compressor, but my main question is how easily can it fit in the engine bay with its size? or am I going to want to incorporate it into my eventual storage drawer build, also what do people do for a fix for the oil that they spew when in use? Any other suggestions would be awesome

Edit: Obviously being a V8 4runner my engine bay is different than in the Tacoma, but size wise and available space is fairly similar.

I have the v6, but I can post you a pic of my engine bay if you want to get an idea. not sure how much it will help.

 

Do you know if Front Line OffRoad is still selling the windshield stickers?
Oh and by the way, Nice T4R.....

 

What pattern are your Rigids? I can't decide between flood or spot

 

They are the spot pattern, and if you want amber, I would suggest getting the white and then adding the amber covers to them.
