SLO Rob's 2000 4Runner SR5

[Byron Eby]

@SLO Rob Looks great! I love the kick out.

 

[SLO Rob]

While I very well may be the least mechanically inclined person on the forum, I'm fairly certain my bearings should not look like this...yep...preeeetty sure...

 

[Byron Eby]

@SLO Rob How are the sliders coming along? I finally got mine in the mail and I am painting them. I was wondering if you have gotten any rust or anything yet living by the coast.

 

[SLO Rob]

Yeah they will. I've rustoleumed' three times and wish I'd pre painted the sliders beforehand ( not the parts that will be welded) I'll tape them up soon and get a good thick coat on them...maybe monsta liner or something.

 

[SLO Rob]

It was nice out, I was waiting for my boys to get out of class. I couldn't help it.

For a 3rd Gen 4runner? If so I can make that happen.

Can you do a 4th Gen mount?

God I love 3rd Gens!

@SLO Rob you got me wanting to try and buy my bosses 01 4runner. Silver and could be sick

3rd Gens are really something. go to www.t4r.org and go to the 3rd gen section and check out some of the build threads for 2001's. Lots of parts available for them too!

Go for it. I've had my 2000 for 16 years and I can not image not having it. If I ever get a new rig, the 3rd Gen is staying.

Oh he's getting hasseled about it. Seen too many nice builds

Got my Sonoran Steel adjustable panhard delivered today. Steve was great to work with, what with my newbie questions left and right. I'll get that on and report. No one told me, after the gazillions lift/suspension threads I read, that the sideways pressure increases so much with a 3" lift. Anytime I hit any kind of bump, my ass flies passenger!

Seriously! lol~

Oceano-Pismo Dunes OHV with @S.L.O_X and getting to use my @MStudt mount...

 

[SLO Rob]

just looking at the picture above again...that's at 15 psi or lower...those load E tires sure don't bow out much, do they...

 

[SLO Rob]

Installed Sonoran Steel Adjustable Panhard Bar! No more crabbing and having my rear end fly sideways over every little bump (yeah, I know, that's a loaded statement) BUT! Of all the millions of lift threads, I can't believe this isn't stated more. I had a HUGE improvement in ride and handling and can't recommend it enough.

Beeeefy

 

[SLO Rob]

See ? No diminutive parts, please! @Mad Garden Gnome

 

[SLO Rob]

That reminds me. I need to route that diff breather...
