There aren't enough 3rd Gen build threads these days so I thought I post a few pics of mine. Over the years I've owned and built many different platforms from a fully built 80 series to LR Discoveries and yes, even my fair share of Jeeps but for me the 3rd Gen 4Runner has always maintained a soft spot. In my opinion (for what that's worth) they are one of the best all around platforms for building an overland vehicle.
I could rant on and on making my case for them but I won't bore you with that as most of you guys know and respect these trucks. On to the build!
Started with a clean '99 Limited back in October 2014 that was purchased from a local CL add here in NC. Rust free truck with 180K that had been well taken care of but otherwise stock.
