I know people have seen the runner before but I thought I would make a thread for it.

this is when I got it




then i put longer shackles on the rear and cranked the tortion bars and also put the 33's on

The previous owner used to carry around a pot belly pig in the runner. So there was all these little course hairs in everything.

I decided to pull the top and gut the whole thing






i took the carpet out and pressure washed it. man was it a pain, it took me almost all day just to get rid of the hair

I took it out on the miller jeep trail last month. There were a few spots that I had to get pulled up but it did fairly good.

I pressure washed the carpet then put it back in. That glue is a pain, the way most people do it is to heat it up with a hair dryer and scrape it off.

sounds like my mom. kinda. when the pig was little it lived in the house. then it got big, fat, and kinda smelled funny, so it moved outside. thats wierd though.
