    Hello from South Carolina. Hope to learn and share 4 runner ins and outs from fellow 4 runner enthusiast. 4 runners are new to me but I love Toyotas. I believe that if the other auto manufacturers dont watch out Toyota will by far be the biggest some day. FJ40. 4th gen 4 runner. Squarebodys galore.

    None. Bone Stock. EXCEPT: Brushguard, tow hitch, both welded to the frame. It's good to have friends and a fully equipped garage!
    Welcome from Oregon!

    I spent a year stationed at Beautiful Beaufort by-the-Sea. I know sarcasm doesn't come through text very well, but that's a very sarcastic statement.
    Thankfully, I was only actually on-base for 6 months. The rest, we were on det overseas. Thankfully.
    One thing about Beaufort was really nice, though. When I got my discharge physical, the dental portion at least, the dental tech I drew had the biggest chest I ever saw. She was huge! And, nice girl that she was, when she cleaned my teeth, she leaned over from the head of the table. I couldn't hear a darn thing the whole time, and didn't give a good gosh darn!
    She accepted a date for that weekend, at least. We all went out on my roommate's 19' Bayliner. Did some water skiing, swam, cruised the Boardwalk, fun stuff like that. I just wanted to show her off as much as I could. She was nice enough to wear a bikini, too! THAT was a NICE sendoff for my discharge, let me tell you!

    Sorry, I ramble down memory lane sometimes.
    Enjoy your new Toy!
    Pat☺

    Thank you for the warm greetings. Has anyone done a real lift on a 4th gen just short of a straight axle? A 6 plus inch taco lift on a 4th gen 4 runner?
