The Mini Fridge (5th Gen T4R) Build -- SOLD

Beautiful truck, man!

 

Thank you!

 

Much better photos than I can take!

 

Sick 5th gen. Super jealous

 

Thanks man! I'm digging it

 

Man, saw the pictures on Insta first and loved them. Seeing those pictures really makes it look even better.

That front bumper is just sick!

Gaaaah makes me want a 4runner sooo bad now!

Side note: What D rings are running on the front?

 

Some new Trip Reports since I'm lazy.

Azusa Canyon SVRA (08/27/2016)

Headed back to Azusa Canyon but this time with some friends, @MADSTEEZE, @lesterb315, and @1truckdriver.

First water crossing was pretty deep again. I am wanting a snorkel now.

@MADSTEEZE flew around a bit.



Found a few offshoots that were interesting.

After getting to the main mud hole, we helped change a tire on a jeep who broke a bead.


I had to head out early since I was flying out to Europe, but @lesterb315 and @MADSTEEZE stuck around a bit.



Sparks, NV (09/20/2016)

I made the long haul up to visit the good folks at @RelentlessFab. I've been planning this trip with them ever since I got my rear bumper order put in many months ago. Luckily, they sent me pics of their prototype Stingray Front Bumper for the 4Runner and were able to whip me one up while I was in Europe. Rig got quite a makeover in 1 day. Front and rear.

Showing up to this in the shop was like waking up on Christmas!



Front Install:

First Cuts







Not bad! My bumper is slightly tweaked from the time I hit a tree so I have a minor gap on one side of the steel but it is not very noticeable.

Next up was the rear. I didn't take any photos of this install, but the results speak for themselves.

And some twinning shots:



Eric is a great Fabricator and I trust him 100% cutting up the rig. At first I was uneasy about someone else cutting up the truck, but after watching the front bumper install, it's obvious he knows very well what he is doing. Couldn't be happier with @RelentlessFab quality and the awesome people that work there.

 

Did you go to big bear ??

 

I didn't. I actually had a big drama with the DMV on Friday which made my rig illegal to drive so I couldn't leave. Turns out the DMV lost all my paperwork when the previous owner and I transferred title. So the car was still his.

Somebody on t4r.org pointed out that my plates were expired. I thought somebody stole my 2017 sticker so I went to get a new one. When I went in they told me that I am not the owner... Luckily, I know the previous owner and we got it all worked out.

 

See you at ocotillo

 

Are you going for sure?

 

Yes so long as my time off request gets approved!

 

I'm probably gonna try to go. Always like cruising around a bit.

 

You gonna camp or just cruise for the day? Been doing nothing but work and school so I need this lol. Looking at the pics you just posted makes me really miss cruising the outdoors.

 

I think I'll camp. Haven't camped in a while.

Kinda nervous to throw my RTT back up on top of the rig at this point. I think I need new springs with the new bumper and tent. It holds the bumper fine, but we will see.

 

Truck looks great man!

I think you need to get behind the front grill and paint that silver part black though... just a suggestion.

 

I think so too! Haha. I will get around to it sometime.

 

Ha, that is how I feel about most things.

That front bumper looks great on the rig though. I think I may have asked you on Instagram, but what D-rings are you running up front? Needing to get some for the Pelfreybilt bumper before it gets in and I like the Red pin and such.

PS. Who did your sig picture?

 

Here are the D-Rings.

@WildLand is the signature man. He makes really cool ones. I'm digging my new look.

 

Sweet, thanks man!

Going to have to hit him up...
