TW's active 4runner builders BS thread

Lawd have mercy

 

What are your guys thoughts on panhard drop vs adjustable?

 

Panhard lift is the best in my opinion. @AssBurns has a lengthy write up on T4R about all of the options I think

 

Just what I was looking for. I’ll go for the guys panhard brackets over the panhard bar.

 

Figured I’d pick up one of the guy on T4R’s kits as it’s precut and seems to be working well for people. I just don’t have the time to try and fab something up right now.

 

I plan to get one of them eventually too. I just don't know anyone who can weld for me that I trust. I really just need to learn how to weld myself...

 

Haha yeah. Sold the tundra about 2 months ago and now driving my 99 for a while. It will be sold though as #3 is on its way and I can’t fit 3 car seats in the back. Just trying to figure out what the wife is going to get. Pushing a van but she doesn’t want to drive something so big. Might get her a SUV and I’ll rock the van....

That way I can justify a 1st gen 4runner for my daily to work and fun.

 

Looks badass dude!

 

Looks great. Sooner or later mine will be back wheeling. Order 35’s next week. Ended up getting in on the ray10’s release. Which I’m still not 100% on the wheels.

 

I did the same thing this weekend at the local park... All the bump stop talk in here made me go test it finally. My rear bump stops are a little long for the new King shocks, but I'd rather have that then too short and I blow them out. Maybe sometime I'll shorten them an inch or two. There's probably an inch of compression left in the bump stop in these pics. Passenger side shock is fully extended.

Along with a bunch of maintenance she got a bath this weekend too. I always forget how good it looks clean.

They're calling for severe weather and potentially golf ball to tennis ball sized hail here tomorrow. Lets hope not, but I'm gonna try to get a spot in the parking garage in the morning...

 

Maybe this summer I'll bring my griots buffer and products up to you and we can make that bitch shine.

 

I had to take pictures or I know whenever I start thinking about doing something about it I won't remember what it looked like haha. I might just leave it like this though. I don't think it's bad. I try to wash mine fairly frequently. Right now we have our small window of pleasant weather down here. It's too cold in the winter to do much, and here in a month or two it'll be miserably hot and humid outside and if I do any work on the truck it'll be late at night after the sun has been down awhile. Humidity is the worst.

Wanna come to me this summer and make mine shine?? Mine could use a polishing. Your rig always does look very clean and shiny.

 

Loaded the runner up with camping gear and it all fit in the drawers. I couldn’t be more excited and I hope it’s as efficient as it seems so far.

 

How long y’all think my stock gears will last with 35’s. I was going to regear and lock it. But my girl told me to just get the 9” next year. So I’d hate to was my money.

 

Once I finish the 4Runner front bumper, the F150 goes up for sale. I think it’s GT86 time

 

Better than another Fiesta

 

I’ve towed it once to San Diego with a U-haul trailer. Sick of paying for 12 mpg for a truck I don’t use.

 

What are to going to tow the 4Runner with

 

Answer is always yes
