    So, with my introduction last week to the 3rd gen world it seems I might as well make a build thread to keep track of progress. I never did this with my Tacoma and regretted it. It will be a semi slow/budget build up for mainly daily driving and some exploring. Starting off with such a clean rig is nice, no dents or major scratches makes me want to keep it nice. Picked her up on Jan 4th, from Weatherford TX. 2 owner, 188k miles.

    Ordered 5100’s and OEM coils for the front, going to pair them with 1.5” spacers for the rear to allow me to run a notch up in the front. Should provide 1.5” of lift with about 1” of rake. Also ordered OEM lower ball joints to knock those out while I’m doing the suspension.

    Front suspension and LBJ installed, looks a ton better. Drives almost like a new vehicle.

    Haven’t updated in a while, life has been crazy. Mods haven’t stopped, and hopefully I’ll be picking up the old girl tomorrow! Had a custom drawer/sleeping setup built in the rear. I’ve got a pile of parts waiting to go on so I’ll be busy these next few weeks.
    Pending install:
    Arb dual compressor
    4x4 SPOD 6 switch system
    Redarc BCDC 1225 dual battery setup
    Solar panel
    Arb 6.5 awning
    Hatch struts
    Dobinson rear coils for the added weight

    Sweet build, still use it as a dd? If so how does it handle, stop, accelerate, etc? I’m trading my Silverado for another 1996 runner and want to do something like yours. He’s giving me new 5th gen 4runner wheels and bfg all terrains as well (they’re 285’s so trimming is coming my way). Just wondering how it drives on road as a daily.

    Drives good! Gets a lot of looks from people haha. I have put just over 10k miles on it so far. It's still my daily driver, and i am still working on it as time allows. I just did spark plugs, engine oil, diff fluids and lower control arm bushings this last weekend, and with a fresh alignment its better than ever. Average MPG is 15.7, but speed limit to my house is 80 so i am sure that affects it a bit. Acceleration is slower than average but acceptable, stopping is fine, handling is good considering i removed the front sway bar. Overall i am happy with it.
