TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

idk what you talking a about

 

Rear end finished! Only thing left is the jack mount.

 

I still can't believe you carry that shit all the time.

 

Group buy?

It attracts the Ugg boot wearing wimmenz

 

So you are running an AutoZone steering rack. I couldn't remember. Mine just died and it's flinging fluid everywhere. Gotta look into a new rack

 

Ordering a new OEM rack Monday. $525

 

Is it worth rebuilding it and replacing the seals?

 

22 dollas at harbor freight. No more laying down on card board boxes under the truck.

 

I have no clue. I'll be taking a look at the current one and seeing about a rebuild. I don't know about the internals and the rebuild-ability. I'll be keeping the ITRs and putting them on the shelf as back ups since the new rack from Toyota comes with ITRs

 

I really need one of these. Hate crawling around and rolling out from under. Might have to make a little HF online visit tonight.

 

where oh where would a man find one of those green clips for the back of the speedometer that holds one the larger 3 lights in? I did an led swap and one was broke and wont stay in enough for the light to work.

 

Baby steps with @4x4runner2002

 

So, try and paint the fender myself and save the ~$1500 insurance gave me for paint and body or get it done right. ~$1500 gets me a swing out...

 

0 chance it costs $1500 to paint a fender. Spend $200 to get the fender painted, buy a swing out

 

Even at a professional swap, I don't see it being more than $400. Could buy a CBI rear hybrid and get a local guy to build me a custom swing out with ladder and what not

 

I vote you do the prep work on the fender yourself, and then just have Maaco paint it

 

Will definitely do the prep work myself. Just put the new one on today to be more proactive about getting the paint work done. I'm surprised with how easily the body lines lined up.

So far, I've spend none of the $2500 they quoted me. I'll get Tundra brakes and a steering rack with ITRs under $850 so I'll have a good amount to still play with. Maybe Savage bumper, still not sure yet

 

I still love mine

 

I honestly like that more than the current one. Even though the tube wouldn't match my front, I still really like it. If it was still available, I'd order it in a heart beat

 

Mines the last one every made before they changed the design
