Did you do the tube work yourself? Next time your in the Portland area we should wheel.

Yes, all of the tube work and everything else was done by me.

No, I chose that color just to make people ask stupid questions.

I found an old pic of my first built Toyota... It was a 1985 SR5 with power windows, AC etc... I had 33's, 4.88s and LockRites. In this pic you can kinda see the rear bumper that my Dad and I built. The front one obviously wasn't finished yet.

Sorry it's not a Truck but I just got it

Sure the 4Runner has gotten a little soft over the years, but you still have a center locker from the factory. Some lift, rear locker, and ARB goodies and...

Then you still have your leather and homelink

[PSUCorrado]

Got some new tires and wheels for the cruiser. 35X12.5 BFG Mud Terrains on 15X8 Eagle Alloys.

[CreeperSleeper]

Holy crap that thing is clean!

[Hawk Thor]

I don´t have any pics of my truck as is. But I have a few of my brother´s 4Runner.

Yeah, we get deep snow here.

They stopped for 1 hour.

On a glacier.

Uuhh, 3Runner?

I´m gonna post pics of my truck soon.

[jmvar]

1995 Land Cruiser, 117k miles.

Just got mine in March. So far I have done almost al the preventative maintenance on it, extended diff breathers, removed running boards, and clean up the rear locker actuator.

After all that I have no money for mods so it will stay stock for a while. Then I will probably replace the street tires with ATs and put on some sliders.

For now I can cheat with the factory front and rear diff locks.

[CreeperSleeper]

Sweet 80! You can find a lot of info on http://www.ih8mud.com. Personally I would recommend MetalTech sliders. BTW- you can clear a 305 tire on the stock wheels and suspension... I ran mine that way for about six months.

Thanks Creeper, I have seen your posts on mud too, great site, that is where I got all the info on how to purchase one and baseline it. I am a little obsesive with preventative maintenance so I tent to go a little over board. Spent lots of money on new parts so far.

Funny thing is next mods where going to be sliders, and was seriously thinking metal tech, and 305 ATs

[CreeperSleeper]

MetalTech is the best slider out there for the 80. I think you can get them thru IronPig also. (That is MetalTech's east coast distributor.) Or you can make a road trip out to OR, I'll help you put them on and we could go wheelin!

My junk from camping
new wheels and tires



and an 83 hilux that invaded our camp site

[Chris16vRocco]

Here's a funny pic of my 4Runner:

One of my tires blew out (dry rotted), and I have yet to get to the junkyard to get another wheel for a spare tire, so I was kinda stuck. I borrowed this 35" from a friend so I could drive home. Suprisingly, it didn't rub too much. Once when I made a u-turn, three times when I turned left, and a couple times when I hit a bump. It looked funny though.

[Hawk Thor]

Mine is actually pretty small, 33" tires.

I´ve done almost everything exept fitting bigger tires since I´ve been a poor student for a few years. But I´ll start looking for fenderflares and tires soon.

I´m mostly focusing on my vdub at the moment.

Buddy of mine is running 35x10.50's on his runner with no lift and doesn't rub at all, he had 35x13.50's and rubbed quite a bit with those though.

I guess but the doors and top still need to be painted.

Well once the door are done and it get mirrors it will be street legal.

[Daemon42]

Got rid of my '92 runner with 3.slow and replaced with '95 with 3.4L swap.
Here's both my 4x4's. Photo taken just yesterday near Delta CO.

The runner isn't the beastliest thing, but it gets the job done, which is
to get me and all my slope soaring gear to remote places to fly.

Here's mine, just got it last week, so no good dirty pics yet. I did take it out a bit, but then it came home for the new car buff and wax. Now the mud will come off easier
