Still waiting on parts from Toyota before this thing can be put back together.  I'm thinking about painting the top checkered.

Yeah the top is already painted Alpine White to match the body, I just haven't put it back on yet.

Yeah, I wish there were stripes up there... but that would have just been way too hard to lay out and paint.  Whatever.

Dude, you do nice work! Runner's lookin' clean!

I do have a small favor. I really dig your 84's rear fender cut. Would you mind telling me how you went about doing that? Measure off anything, or just start cutting? Would you mind posting up a side shot of them if you have it? Thanks a bunch! Keep up the good work!

Yeah no problem.  Basically I just went to town because I was over rubbage and I was throwing 37's on to go to the Rubicon the day after I did them.  It was kinda hurried because of that.  My 4Runner sits super low in the rear, but I like it that way so I had to take a bunch of body out.  I just went outside and took some pictures for you.











It clears my 38's nice, that's what you're running too right?

Here's the Relentless Runner.  Got it back on the road again yesterday.  It felt really good to drive it again after all that work.

Man, thanks so much! I really dig how it follows the factory trapezoidal shape. Yea, I'm runnin' the 38.5 SXs and they fit pretty nice in there. They just need a little help  :_order:

That paint job is awesome! Come paint my  :pokinit:  ...  :yupyup:

School takes up most of my time now, but I've been getting a little work in here and there on the weekends.  Time to update this thing.

Had to put on my little tires to get it into the garage.




Duals ready to go.


Got carried away and took everything out because the clutch was acting up and it didn't like going in and out of gear.  Got the transmission looked at and all new seals put in it.  Got a new clutch as well.

Got some more time to work on it today, and managed to get the stock rear axle swapped out for my 4.88 E-locker axle.

The old.


Out with the old.


The new.


New perches.


Taken out, welded on, painted, in again with the new.


New hotness.

Haha, thanks mang.  It was a nice Saturday morning, not a bad way to spend some time out in the sun before winter hits.

Thanks.

Update I guess is that I've just been driving this thing all over the place.  It rides pretty good.  Still needs rear shocks, sliders, rear bumper, e-locker wiring, and some sound.
