The GlamTaco Prerunner 4x4 Long Travel Something Something Thread

I paid about $540 for mine I think, but the company I bought from had virtually no customer service. I had an issue and luckily Bestop helped me out directly, they have great customer service. I think autoanything.com will price match and give you free shipping.

 

That's a little steep for me, maybe when I get some money coming in. Anyways, thanks again for all your help!

 

I used my Dad's garage today to stay dry while I installed my Firestone ride rite kit. I sure wish I had a 2 car garage.



Chopping off the bump stops



Brackets and bags bolted up, ready to run air line.



Mounted the valves to the trailer harness bracket. The kit came with 2 heat shields for the hoses so I used one on the driver side line where it mounts to the bracket to hide the bright red hose.



Valve location



The kit went on fairly easy. It took longer than I anticipated. I removed the spare tire so I could have more room when mounting the brackets and snaking the air hose. No leaks so far. I pumped the bags up to 20 psi and drove home. The rear suspension was noticebly firmer and I look forward to hauling loads without sagging and bottoming out in the future!

 

how well does your truck tow your 4runner?

 

Well I don't forget when it is behind me, but it does well. I towed it through the mountains of Asheville and didn't have much trouble getting uphill.

 

Did your truck come with the sun roof? I wonder if that can be done as an aftermarket mod.? Looks great!!

 

Its an aftermarket moonroof, an Inalfa 925. Thanks!

 

Looking really good bud, the eyelids add the perfect touch to the awsome lights. I am glad to see you got a wheeler. Enjoy it, I can't wait to finish mine. Nice to have a nice truck and a reliable wheeler at the same time.

 

^Thank you sir! I love the eyelids. I get compliments and stares everywhere I go.

The Runner is getting Trail Gear 4" suspension front and rear with hi-steer in a month. Thats probably all I will be able to do to it this year besides some maintenance, unless I hit the lotto.

 

LOL, if you do make sure you share!

 

Yea your right, I will share it with the 4runner and the Tacoma

 

Good plan! You wouldn't want to hurt there feelings. LOL

 

TWINS!!!
Nice setup man

 

^ Thanks man I really like yours too! I love the spindles, I was going to get a set but decided to get another Toy and start building it.

 

I like the black head lights

 

^ Thanks, you have a nice looking truck as well.

 

I had a great time at Uwharrie during Memorial Day weekend. New suspension and hi-steer is going on the Runner next week. Hopefully gears, lockers, and 35's will go on in a few months.

good looking trucks!

 

Why did you get ride of the billies up front? When you put them on did you have issues getting the alignment in spec?

 

Thanks Jerret!

I did not get rid of them. I originally installed them set to 1.75" with no alignment issues. Then I adjusted them to .85" with eibach springs, 3/4" driver side spacer and 1/4" passenger side spacer with Light Racing UCAs.
