    1989 Toyota 4Runner DLX 4x4 5speed i have alot of plans for it

    -lockers front and rear
    -4.56 gears
    -tube bumper front and rear
    -sliders
    -custom tire gate
    -linex floor boards
    -roof rack
    -cb radio
    -4" super lift
    -33x12.5-15 duratracks
    -winch
    -engine swap

    i then decided that i wanted to remove the rear bumper, the one that came with it was bent as hell.

    BEFORE

    AFTER

    Then i purchased a cobra 19 ultra lll, with a 4 foot antenna

    this was the only place i could find a good place to mount the CB (i know its not the best)

    [​IMG]

    here the antenna mounted

    there is more to come eventually! but what do you guys think so far??

    well sad to say it looks exactly the same.
    no one has put any work into it. but the OME lift looks really nice in my room i hear!
    as for the bumper, motherfucker is still being built..
    and the LED tail lights, still in the box..
    BUT i can rep i have all those things, i just cant do a performance writeup
