TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

I thought about selling the 4runner multiple times in the last week. Haha. When I bought it I needed 4 doors. Now I don't. Lol

Poor taste mariachi joke.

 

Haha technically he isn't mistreating it and will make it better (I ran out of time and money to really bring the 4Runner to the next level). As soon as I get a 1st gen to build I will be totally fine and have a new project to focus on.

 

Admittedly he did save me some money. So I guess I have to thank him.

 

So far I've been immune

And no, not unless the "ocean" is a REALLY deep mud puddle. Only fitting death for it

You'd be surprised. When O decide something I'm very determined. I mean I still own my 4runner. That wasn't the easiest thing for me to accomplish keeping while buying another car.

 

I meant the light it on fire.

 

thanks

 

Very true. I'm just saying that is more likely what would happen to mine.

And you're not allowed to have a 1st gen! I have to at least keep my oldest runner title! Haha

 

I mean I already know what the first mod is going to be..probably lame to you guys but I'm gonna convert the cluster back lights to LED's. Hopefully every bulb.

 

Yeahhhh no lol

 

did you end up buying it? pics?

 

Not lame. I switched mine to 5000k and wasn't a fan in the end. Went back to the green condom lights. All personal preference. These trucks are great because everyone can do whatever they want.

 

Not yet, just planning ahead.

I get that, I've just always liked the interior looking cool too. A vehicle with a badass exterior needs a badass interior lol

 

I recently did that. I like it. Suggestion though, get warm white leds for your idiot lights instead of ice white. Ice white changes the color and makes some too bright. I couldn't use my brights because my cluster indicator was blinding me

 

I got my sliders on thursday! Only problem is that I wasn't paying attention when they were welded on. 2 spots the body seams touch the sliders. Pretty much negated any positive of having bushings between the frame and body. Ended up spending a ton of time of the first side just to end up using the air chisel. Needless to say the other side was fast and furious. Rides the way it should have. It was so bad I could feel the tread on my tires when stopping. Tgfb thank god for bushings.

 

Alright, thanks for the tip. I'm so excited for tomorrow. I truly hope I can get it.

 

sliders..another mod on the list

 

Yeah no problem. Also pay attention to the polarity. I put one LED in backwards and it started to toast a diode on the back of my cluster. Luckily I hadn't reassembled anything so it was a quick fix and nothing broke

 

At this point I'm unsure of size. #194's are what I thought they were, but after reading they may be #24. Hmm.

 

I have no clue. My 2nd gen had 3 156s (same as 194s just different wattage) and a crap ton of 74s. Came out pretty nicely I think

 

I know for a fact the crap ton of 74s are the same.
