    Soobarubin's 1987 4Runner Build up/Expedition thread!

    Man the engine, after a carb head was put on first by the machine shop, a knock sensor fiasco, and finally just putting a new 053 Ignition module in it, she runs like a dream! Pulls good, but as I've said before, it's still a 4cylinder in that size of a vehicle! :snorkel: I was very happy when...

    Soobarubin's 1987 4Runner Build up/Expedition thread!

    So last week I decided I was very tired of having maybe 2 inches of up travel in my rear leafs... I got in touch with "kratter" on eBay, very nice guy, and ordered 2, 14" tall 150psi coils! While doing some research, I didn't see many guys using the 150lb springs, but I decided since I have a...

    Soobarubin's 1987 4Runner Build up/Expedition thread!

    (Copied my thread over from YT because it's pretty expeditionary too) This has been a long ongoing project, and I just now have decided I have done enough work on my truck to start a build thread on it, and I will update it as I go, so here it goes! :drink: In June of 2009, I got tired of my...

Got 31's and mounted my rack on top, it will be permanently mounted to the top soon. Doing the Zuk mod withing a couple of weeks, and when funds permit, rear Aussie locker, bumpers...

    1st Generation Toyota 4Runner's.....

    I figured the sheet metal wouldn't hold much... But with proper back bracing, I think it should hold quite a bit. You can see the pictures of the white one, and it looks like it is holding quite a bit. Haven't posted my Runner yet... Here she is in all her glory :) 223xxx on the clock...

    That was my point in making a rack mount to the side of the truck, I don't trust the fiberglass that much, plus you could still have a rack with no top. -Jaren

    I know this is an old thread... And I'm a noob to this site. However, I'm not a noob to my 87 Runner than I'm in the process of building into overland travel (funding permitted:sombrero: ) I was looking at this rack, and I'm super interested in it, anybody have any specs, links to the build...
