TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

Haha you silly goose

 

i mean, who does he think he is?

barging into my thread like that without introducing himself and posting a pic of his 4runner

 

Hey! Just clearing up something. I'm sure jberry will be along to remind me how much I suck. I don't think I'd ever change his mind about that.

Lots of awesome builds in this thread!

 

Kinda glad he did. I'd prefer to not hear rumors and hear more from the actual person. Welcome to the shit show @lawndart. Hope the crew didn't scare you off already

 

I've noticed that most people on T4R are dicks

 

I saw this thread in late April, post-VTX blow up. Damage was done at that point so chiming in felt too little too late, and as I said that was taking advantage of a deal where I should have double checked to make sure the design wasn't stepping on a company's toes (SCS). Rims are being swapped out on the trailer after a trip to Baja, lesson learned.

I didn't post my 4Runner because so many of you have seen it, and I don't particularly care to talk about it again and again. We did the OB walk around video because it benefitted OB with content, and OB was gracious enough to let me crash with them on my way to Expo.

I don't know how much I can contribute to the thread, I'm sure just by posting I've announced I'm here in the form of "Punching Bag, reporting for duty!"

In all sincerity I really really like that this thread contains all gens, rather than T4R which tends to get sucked into "my brake pedal makes a squishy sound" ad nauseam.

 

I'm on t4r for Dirtco's 3rd gen, @rickashay 's new 4th gen, all of ChildrenofBodom's toys. That's it haha. That whole forum went super soccer mom real quick. It's still what made me mod my 3rd gen when I joined it nearly 6 years ago, and how I met all of you. Glad there are this many 4Runners on this site now though. Bob keeps this forum in tip top shape.

 

Any of you guys want any of this stuff? I'll stick it in a flat rate box and it's yours.

 

Only 2. Straight from Autozone. I bought 0.75" Bora spacers instead.

 

@4x4runner2002 hasn't. He's not on instagram

 

Social media doesn't exist in my life other than this thread on TW and a few others. I'd rather wrench and wheel than dream and brag.


Oh and uwharrie was fun we ran every trail there in a day and a half.
Daniels was a bit challenging but fun as heck.

 

No social media for me either. People get way too consumed by it.

Had a great time at Uhwarrie with you guys, glad y'all made it back alright. My drive wasn't bad at all. I'm sure I'll be back up there at least once this summer. Also got a nice downpour on the way home to knock the mud off. She'll get a bath this week though hopefully.

 

We got back not too long ago. Dicked around a bit on the drive home. Stopped, ate, drove. Beautiful weather the whole way

 

I got back around 2:00. Showered, went to the store, and then passed out on the couch for 3 hours...

 

My brakes do make a squishy sound! Why is that?

Totally see what you mean about t4

 

took the tent off today. I've now hurt myself every time taking it off. Putting it on is easy. I really need to stop sitting behind a desk and get in better shape.

 

Sounds like a routine at this point and remember... Round IS a shape, my mantra at least

 

Dirt on tires? Nope can't have that

 

Hernia... damn it. Thinking of getting rid of the tent I keep hurting myself with to pay for surgery haha

 

Yeah it's actually a weird kind that doesn't hurt at all, still needs to be fixed though. Pretty minor but recovery is gonna suck ass
