well i sold the 4runner to pay off some debt i had to my wife from preivious rig builds. we made the daily driver(making) into a double duty(drive to work and play). it started as a 91 extracab with a 4 inch procomp ifs lift, 3'' perf acces. body lift and 37 ssr's. itook off the body lift and put 33's on it for the dauily driver portion of its life, but the ifs stuff in front was busted up on a little fishing trip so i did a sas with no further intentions....

then came the sawzall, plasma torch, welder and tube bending...

now i have 6 rear leafs in front, f250 1/4 elipticals in the rear, wacked the frame off about 2-3 feet and moved the rear axle forward 13''. got a FROR Tcase mount and stuffed that up to the body floor(2'' roger brown bodylift for more clearance). and installed 4 control arms outta .250 wall 1026 DOM tubing...

so now it has 4.88's with arb in front and a detroit in the rear, dual marlin cases with 4.7 gears in the rear(truck came with the dual ultimate), 36sx's on mrt beadlocks and a

load of booger welds

i have to mount the gas tank transvers behind the cab, finish the flat bed and cage work, make front and rear driveshafts and con my exhaust man to build some crazy snake of a system to clear all the links and crossmembers.........

See what happens when you let the kid drive! Better watch it or he'll end up just like his dad..you just cant let that happen! Looks killer, Never mind the negative comments about the front mounted clothes hanger, It looks pretty familiar.
