New bumper day! Due to the weight of the bumper, I had to go to a nearby freight shipper to pick up the bumper.

Well, naïve me thought I could fit the bumper in the back of the 4Runner. Well I was RIGHT! We took it out of the box, and got is wedged in the back, and no windows had to be rolled down.

Got it back to my apartment, and will be installing once my shocks and winch come. Just installed the trim prices for now

For those with reservations about 4WheelParts, where I bought it, I get it. I had to call them for the PRO number for freight, and I had to do a lot of the back work, like scheduling the pickup. However free shipping for this? Damn that’s pretty good.

On another note, what winch should I get?

Sorry, I posted those pics in your build thread. I hit the wrong notification.

Hey is the bumper installed yet??

Did you have a chance to take pics of the Prinsu and LightBar??

Thanks much!

Bumper won’t be installed for a while - too cold, I don’t have much space

This is how my light bar is set up! Unfortunately it’s pretty rusty here in the Midwest

Thank you. I’ll have to cut mine as well. My OEM rack did not come off easy. I’ll post some info later with pics. Thanks again for the info!

Big Ol update, new suspension. Tires soon. then i can lay off spending lots of money for a while

 

[Joel S]

Ok. I think I’m going to stop spending money for a while. Got the tries on. I’m going on a trip this weekend with some other OB members. I think she’ll do just fine!

Been a while, couple things added.
- added a ham radio, D710GA
- added a dual battery system
- added a solar system
- got rid of the light bar, and added some lights up front. My hood is no longer lit up!
