    Sell the car, buy both. Throw some 32s on the 4runner and build the LC. :D


    Also...

    I claim your top spacer!

    No I want the truck as our dedicated husky hauler / expo rig. The lc would be my snow wheeling truck. The 4 runner would be Laurens daily driver and my s4 will be my daily driver.

    Top plates? What top plates?

    Well over the weekend I got most of the upgrades done on my truck. HOWEVER I messed my back up when I got home so I am now bed ridden. LAME!

    Going to see if the girlfriend will snaps some pics but here is how it lays out.

    New wheels and tires
    New Struts
    New bumper
    New winch
    New recovery gear

    So since my back is out I am holding off on a few final parts of my most recent upgrade. Hopefully will have everything done shortly.

    Enjoy the new pics, I know I do!

    Wow that's crazy max. Glad we were not there.

    On a side note check this. I figured the Tacoma wouldn't do that great driving 129 miles per day so my boss got me this.

    I will stay safe. I am riding this to work now and I am not going to crazy.

    I think we will make it. My job allows a few days off a week so hopefully july/august I will be recouped in cash to start traveling again.

    I guess I should have checked it out last time I saw your truck but you should post more pics of how you ran the intake tube off the snorkel.

    I was going to but I changed it so many times. I am going to be changing it again to get a little better air flow so maybe after this last time I will leave it and snap some pics.

    Well as for the mods, I have 2 more left to do and I will be done.... [​IMG]

    On this list are finishing off the skids in the rear and finishing the fridge mount in the truck. I have a new design and that will complete my build.

    Accomplishing this june will be installing my high clearance rear and having my gauges done. I have been crazy busy otherwise this would have all been done already.

    The snorkel is expensive and seems like a PITA otherwise I'd probably pull the trigger. I'm waiting to see what you come up with. My stock intake isn't really cutting it. I just shook all sorts of mod out of the intake box and my air filter. Working on a temp solution but I think long term solution is snorkel.

    Well its a sad day for my Toyota but I am going to have to sell her. We have been through many things together and after such a great run I am sad to see her go. There is nothing wrong with the truck, it has tons of love and care put in to it, and I just hope it finds a great home. I will be selling the truck locally and will start out with it aggressively priced. If you want to send me offers please feel free to but my girlfriend will be the one checking my pm's so I apologize if I dont respond asap.

    Please know that I am only selling because I have to not because I want to. I am asking a lot but I have also put alot in to the truck.
