    I threw a few pics up... shows some of the trucks hang outs!

    I will go through and take some more detailed pics of my modifications.

    I'll post them up when I get bored / time when I should be working.

    3rd gen 4Runners are getting easier to modify now... and there are lots of ways you can go wrong... just ask me... I think I have made every mistake during this build... I always have to learn the hard way!

    I can't believe it's taken this long to get a truck thread going...it's about time.

    Nice addition. So, how was it dealing with Baertrax? I'm curious, as I'll likely have the same thing done this Spring and I'm looking for a new place now that Expert Off-Road is no longer around.
