How it started: Sold my 99 4Runner LTD 4x4 February 4th, 2020. Then I flew out around 6 a.m to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina February 5th, 2020 to pick up the Tacoma and drive it back in one day arriving home around 11:30 p.m.

Bought my first Tacoma for $24,250 out the door with 54k miles.

 

Thats a sick 4runner.

 

Sub'd

 

Not to get too personal or anything but do you live in the Hampton Cove area? I swear I use to see this thing all the time over there!

 

Nah I live in the Gurley area, but I dirve around that area a lot so there is a good chance it was me haha.

 

Small little upgrades this past weekend.

 

Went on my first official trail ride from Waterloo AL to Pickwick TN. Wish I could have gotten more pictures of my truck but I was riding solo and there was a lot of people which made it hard to stop and hold everyone up. Overall fun trip with lots of water crossings, scenic views from the mountains overlooking the Tennessee river and a few technical hill climbs with some rock features.

 

Just got the cowl intake mod done and all seems to be well with it’s function. Seemed like a good time as well to post updates on how the engine bay currently looks.

 

Did a little fender flare trimming, 2.5’ trim using a jig to keep the same contour of the existing flare. 1/4 20 x 1.25 flat head through bolts to keep secure

 

Looking good! Really clean truck, I like it!

 

thanks! i need to get better at taking more pictures. parts come in and i get excited and forget all about documenting haha

 

So do I, although I haven’t had many new additions lately.
I’m looking into new suspension, torn between Kings and Fox.

 

I was told you will get more miles out of kings before needing rebuilt compared to fox's, and the blue color looks so good.

 

I heard that as well, and I do like that King Blue.
I’m also a fan of the finer tuning of the DSC adjusters on the Fox. Although I don’t think I’d be disappointed with the King adjusters.

 

Just completed the 5th Gen 4Runner BBK using oem parts!
