My 1991 Toyota 4 runner, straight axle front on leaf springs, 4 link rear on air shocks, 4.88s, detroit,longfields,dual cased with 4.7:1 crawler gears in back case, hydraulic assist, 36" tsls, just finished the 4 link and exo cage! Special thanks to buckeye zuk (Stevie Leonard) and Barger for all the help!

Looks good Brown. you did some really nice work on it.i think it will look better when you get a couple drunk bumps on it tho!

nice.
question.
why didnt you tie the front outside of the bumper to the rest of the exo?

drmeece · 04-02-2009, 07:32 AM

Pretty cool!!!!!!!!

4RunnerAdam · 04-02-2009, 11:00 AM

Nice!

KargoMaster · 04-02-2009, 11:53 AM

Extra nicely done...

I wanna see more details of the bobbed rear...
I also agree with Elio... The tube from front bumper around front wheel well seems like it's "missing" but that could be just because of how the bumper end is terminated... ("hanging out?")

Rear plate reminds me of Dewey's Toyota.

Looks good!

Out of curiosity, how is the headroom in the back seat in relation to the rear window?

They sit in the rear seats backwards. :( Kinda like riding the backwards racer at Kings Island.

The 4runner looks good

jugbutt · 04-02-2009, 10:13 PM

Really nice ride man!!

humpy · 04-03-2009, 10:18 AM

looks good....lets go break it in...needs some scratches...thats the best thing that thing has looked since the day we picked it up...

04-03-2009, 11:18 AM

I decided i didnt like the blue!

04-03-2009, 11:24 AM

Im glad the back panel reminds you of Deweys thats where i got the idea! backseat haedroom is tight if your tall and like to recline but aint too bad for the intoxicated friends of mine that ride back there! I didnt tie the exo to the front bumper on the side because i didnt think it would look good so i left it the way it is! And after the law tells me i cant drive it i will probly narrow the frontend anyways!

KargoMaster · 04-03-2009, 01:54 PM

Much better than the blue.

Looks good can't wait to get mine done. You need to get some of that tree buffing compound to shine it up a little
