4Running Daily's Build Thread

Cool, that's what I thought, and I think already asked you this in another thread LOL.

 

Holy shit. What a build. Love the history on it and where it's at today. So cool!

 

This thing seen any dirt yet @4Running Daily

 

Once it finally got onto it's own weight, I was tackling some small issues, and then had to move houses. After that, headgasket blew.

oh the joys of maintenance.. never the fun mod we like to do, but definitely necessary. Glad you're keeping it alive and well! Hope all is still going well out there man. Hopefully we can link up sometime.

 

Now finally doing fun things again:

Started with sliders, these are True North Fab https://www.truenorthfabrications.com/product-page/96-02-4runner-rock-sliders

Ah, that's a bummer, but at least you know it will be good essentially forever now. I have about 60k on mine since doing them and running strong.

Killer, adding any hoops or anything else to the sides of the bumper, or keeping it simple?
