    2000 Toyota 4 Runner Limited ARB OME FULL EXPEDITION is a highly modified off road vehicle built up on the reliable and bulletproof 3rd generation Toyota 4Runner. I bought the truck in Florida and drove it North.The suspension and tire upgrades maintain the excellent original ride characteristics of the 4Runner while greatly extending the off-road capabilities of the already very capable 4Runner. The BFG KM tires are super smooth and get the job done in any terrain. They are probably the best off-road tire in the market. The ARB Awning is a must for any overland/expedition vehicle. It is super rugged and opens and closes easily. No rust anywhere. 3.4l 24v V6. New ARB Expedition Winch Bumper, Old Man Emu Suspension, New Smittybuilt 9500 lb Winch, Recent BF 285 70 17" BF Goodrich All Terrain TA Tires on ICON Vehicle Dynamics Wheels , Roof-Rack, ARB Awning, Driving Lights. New timing chain, AC module, Transfer Case, New Kenwood Blue Tooth Audio System. Tan Leather, Sunroof, Rear window opens (last year available)

    If you see another 4Runner and you don't park next to it, was it even there?

    They are BxBuilt headlights, they’re a bunch of guys in Nevada that do this full time. They’re super friendly and helpful, great guys. This was a modification I wasn’t comfortable doing myself, I’d shock myself I’m sure. If its something you think you can do, I’d recommend it. They say the lead time is 2 weeks but I waited nearly 3 months for these, which for me was worth it. It may not be worth it for others. One thing is for sure, the light output is 100% better, they even threw in those halos and an RGB controller for free.

    Edit: I got some info wrong, they say their lead times are 8-12 weeks, which I’m sure for the most part is true. I ordered around the holidays during the start up of the pandemic, so mine was a lot longer.

    Just picked up a super clean 1997 SR5 with 167k miles. My first car when I was 16 was a manual 1996 in the same color and we’ve always regretted getting rid of it so I couldn’t pass this up! We even cancelled the 2022 we had on order. Time to start building!

    None. Bone Stock. EXCEPT: Brushguard, tow hitch, both welded to the frame. It's good to have friends and a fully equipped garage!
    "Work" is a four letter word, ending in "K".
    I'll thank you not to use it in my presence, sir! :rofl:

    Sorry, I couldn't resist...
    Just one of those things my smart-alek has to do sometimes. :notsure:

    Have a good day every one!

    Great job on the engine detail! Too few people pay attention to the engine bay. I am a believer that the engine bay should always be kept clean. By spending time in there, we get to know the true condition of the vehicle a little more intimately. Well done!

    Nice rig, I especially like the heritage stripes on the sides, and the KC lights on the front! I have a light bar on my bumper, would love to replace with a set of KCs -- so classic!
