    Looks like I have been corrected, it is the rear shock. Which is kind of funny because apparently they are a PITA to get out, and my just popped off. My first 4Runner was a Red 1987 4Runner, the name kind of stuck

    I had that 12 years ago, sold it to my brother and he put a Total Choas long travel kit in the front and Deavers in the rear. He ended up selling it before he moved to Texas. I miss that car like no other, had every option minues the moonroof. Had power mirros and locks, the body was in near perfect condition.

    Here was the 4Runner before he sold it and my Jeep at the time

    i keep forgetting to invite you to the 4runner room.

    not many of us here, so the thread can be a little slow .

    I had a leak out of my radiator develop a few weeks ago.
    Replaced most of my cooling system:
    Radiator, radiator hoses, thermostat.
    Also had a little mishap with a rogue screwdriver. Pierced a hole in my condensor and lost all my freon. Had to install a new condensor.

    Lots of hard work going on with your 4Runner. Hopefully I can get my shock off tomorrow, TPS installed and TRD stickers installed tomorrow or Wednesday.

    I am sure you could find someone to make those for you. I feel like the TRD stickers add a little flare to the rear end of the 4Runner. Looks a little plane without them.

    Ball joint spacers and lift blocks, am I doing it right?
    Hi all, I mostly hang out in the Florida section. Good group that wheels pretty often, that's why I originally joined, to have people to wheel with.

    Picked up my 89 a few years ago never having owned a Toyota. I always liked them, my buddy in high school had a beautiful 85 pickup and wanted one ever since.

    Anyways here's my build thread. SAS, ARB rear, Spartan front, rear springs and shocks, Onboard air, and a bunch of other stuff I'm forgetting. Paint, motor swap, dual cases and 3 link will happen at some point.

    Welcome to our BS thread!

    Love me some first gen porn! I plan to go to the citrus meet early next year. I might want to spend some alone time with your rig :spy: :jerkoff:

    I have a 3rd gen, lots of good things happening within the next few weeks.

    This weekend: savage offroad bumper.
    Next weekend lift kit
    Weekend after that arb rear locker.

    Excited to see my build coming together.
