    Got my flare mounted back up and the 3rd back in. Just need to reattach the driveline now, take it for a spin and hopefully not see a puddle after I park :D Saturday I go in for an alignment and then mechanically I should be back to normal. I think I'm just going to order an Ebay front fender and rattle can it. After seeing the results Scott got painting his cap I'm going to take my chances.

    Great! Since I'm working at home now I don't drive around a bunch but when I do its been running like a champ after the clusterfuck that was the driveline vibes :oops:

    I need to pick up a welder so I can start to do some real work to it. Hi steer is on the short list. The question is, 4 or 6 stud...

    I only did the 4 stud, if I were planning on building it to be a beast crawler I'd look into the 6 stud.

    What do you consider the tipping point for a truck going from offroader to becoming beast crawler? Cereal question :D

    Haha well I still like to drive my 4Runner from time to time on the street and the plan is to still build it as more of a do all vehicle so it'll go fast, crawl, and go camping. A little beefier than my taco, but not full on crawler haha.

    You really can't go wrong, but get more clear then you think. It say 3 -4 coats, but I think 4-5 coats and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between factory and DIY paint job.

    Good info. Thanks! And did I read correctly that you're supposed to wait for a few weeks before throwing wax on it?

    Went for an alignment yesterday and discovered that three of my cam tabs are bent over so I have that going for me! I guess I'll be ordering some TCs tomorrow.

    Yes! Haven't wheeled it since I put them on but the tabs will not be a problem/worry anymore.
