I check in here now and then and I have to saw that it is awesome you are taking the time to get this thing road worthy again. Good luck with the build. I hope I can watch it all from here!!

Those would look good. I also like some of the cheaper toyota alternatives.

Cool. What kind of tires are you going to go with?

Any updates?

Dogs are instinctual. You're part of her pack and she was protecting you whether she could take on the bear or not. I wish more people in this world were as "dumb" as your dog.

He texted me and told me he got the frame patched, so maybe he got more work done to it. When I saw it, everything had rust all over it and it definitely didn't look like just surface rust. But the mechanic you took it to probably knows more about it than I do. Hopefully you end up with solid...

Yeah the OME kit is around that price. A lot of people go even cheaper and do Land Cruiser springs in back and I think tundra springs in front with Bilsteins. There's a lot of ways to do a decent lift for little money on those. That's one of the things that makes them so great.

Awesome pics guys. I wish i took some in car video while I did some water crossings in my little Chevy Cobalt last week lol. I'm up in northern Illinois where all the flooding is going on. I thought my car was a toast on a couple of my "crossings". I can't wait to get into an SUV. Have fun guys!!

I agree the Jeep would be a great vehicle, it would definitely cut into his 15-18k budget, or most likely exceed it. I love jeeps, but man they are expensive. Especially if you have your heart set on a Rubicon.

Thats ok if it takes a while. Than means you have plenty of time to make this a very thoughtful build. Projects like this always turn out better for me when I have more time to think about it, rather than just throw money at it and end up just re-doing it later on.

4Runners don't use leaf springs. The fronts may be interchangeable with tacos, but the rear is not.

Can't wait to see this build. I love the way these look with a lift and some A/T's. Definitely a unique trail rig.

I know a full size rig can be cumbersome, but I'm looking at Toyota Sequoias right now. I wanted a 4Runner, and I'd still take one, but the first gen Sequoias have more room and power and don't seem to have the premium price attached to them like the 4Runner. The 4.7 V8 is bullet proof. Gas...

Wow. I went and looked at this exact truck. Close to Indianapolis, right? The frame looked like Swiss cheese in the back. I was very upset because I drove 4 hrs each way to look at it after the salesman, Trent, told me the frame was fine. I spent about 30 seconds looking at the frame and passed...
