    2008 Toyota 4Runner Fully built MA,NY

    As the title states I'm parting with my beloved 4th gen 4runner that I have built up over these last 4 years. It still saddens me even as I write this, But I have decided to move to a different rig that I think will better suit my needs. So my lose will be somebody else's gain! Silver 2008...

    Took the trailer out for a test spin around the neighborhood today! Tracked great behind the truck and barely felt it back there. I think I fubbed up something with the measurements for the extended tongue because it's definitely longer than I planned but I think it's going to be perfect once I...

    Got the extended tongue done today. Came out great! Welded everything up underneath and added some extra L shape brackets for support. I'm still going to run bolts thru the original holes underneath also so it will be nice and strong. I went to mount up the jack that I got and it turns out...

    Yes i accidentally ordered the wrong ones ( one part number off) i shipped them back already. So now i'm thinking if i should just clean up and re paint the old ones and use those (save a few bucks) or just re order then new ones? I also snapped one of the U bolts so stopping by redneck trailer...

    Yes thanks man, I'm actually doing something similar to that. I picked up two pieces of 3x2 at 60" and one really long piece of 2.5" that I'm going to run in the middle all the way back to the front crossmember. The only thing I'm trying to figure out is how to bolt them close to the frame like...

    I mounted the new axle, wheels and tires up today. I ran into a issue with the leaf springs I ordered from rockauto, they ended up being 5" to long. I ordered the old CJ5 leaf springs from them because I've read they were a direct swap for these trailers but I'll have to return these now and...

    Got the lid started this weekend, I went the same route as many others have done on here. It's all framed up Now I just have to skin it and wait for the hinges to show up in the mail. I also order my new axle from redneck trailer supply. I went with 3500 lb with electric brakes and 6x5.5 hubs to...

    Framed the top of the tub today. Now the lid will have a nice flat even surface to sit on. I like the square look of it better too. Next on to the lid! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks Bud it's a work in progress. I wish i had more than just the weekends to tackle it but yeah it should be mostly done and ready for camping at FJNE. The more i do the more i change and it keeps growing. At this point by the time i'm finished i'll have replaced or re built everything except...

    How's it going, I found mine on craigslist and from time to time a found a bunch at once. Most are priced pretty high so i would just keep checking periodically. Also i would just put ( Military Trailer ) when i searched because not every one has them listed properly.
