New 3rd Gen 4Runner owner from Montana

About to put a lift on my Tacoma this Friday. She's never seen dirt yet! Would be neat to get a MT group together some time though.

 

@ramonortiz55 sure does, same color as yours too! I'll grab a couple of pics haha.

@Kyitty we definitely need to have a MT group run sometime. Would be cool to hang out and go camp for a weekend. And no worries, we'll break that Taco into the dirt real well haha!!

 

YES! I have been looking for a pic of one with limited flares..im just curious how far those flares will stick out..and I could never find out on google images..thanks bro!

 

theres a few 3rd gen 4runners with 35s here..

 

I have seen them and they look really good. I like the look of them, not sure if I am ready for 35's yet.

 

That would be good to see. I know some companies add width to their bumpers to accommodate the limited flares.

 

i know im not ready for it also. just gonna run 33s for awhile

 

Very nice 4runner man.
200k miles is nothing for these trucks

 

Thank you! I know right, she's still a baby lol. My last vehicle was a 95 suburban that was still running on the factory drive train when I sold it last year at 278k, so I'll be bummed if I don't pull at least that with the 4Runner!

 

those old suburbans where tanks.

i grew up with some friends who owned one.. man that thing would be abused and still run

 

I know right? I beat the living shit out of mine lol. Typical high school kid stuff lol. One of my coworkers is the daughter of the lady I sold it too, and she said it is still running today, but isn't sure if mileage. I'm assuming over 300k by now! I seriously sold the truck for $1000 lol

 

was it 4x4?

 

Shit yeah it was. Open rear diff tho so it was a bit of a pig and liked to get high centered easily, and I was too broke to afford a lift haha

 

@ramonortiz55 here's that savage bumper I was telling ya about!

 

i like that!

 

@willhaman21 the flares dont stick out too much. I can live with that.

 

It looks pretty damn good in my opinion! You'll be pretty stoked when you get it haha installing yourself? And doing the end cap mod or no?

 

I'm installing it myself.

Never heard of an end cap mod

 

Welcome!

 

You chop the old frame end caps off (like 1/8" metal) and weld in a piece of 1/4" angle iron or something along those lines. Look it up on T4R, lots of info on it out there. It's a must if you ever plan on doing any winching or recoveries with the bumper. My Shrockworks came with all the stuff for it...
