The dealership offered my sister $5000 for this truck. It's freaking awesome.

Funny.

Nolen that rig turned out fantastic. Thank you again for your biz...

Funny.

Yours, somehow was gay. Lol

Cool Taco at Lou's today

If I ever get permission to acquire again, this would be my next rig.

70 series, coils, 4 doors
What series? 79?

 

[wngrog]

Those are not quite 25 years old yet

Got a hidden winch mount for my 4Runner from Pelfrey.

@beno had an M8000 that needed a home so I jumped on it.

It came unpainted so step 1 is to lay a coat of black on it.

Very nice piece. Superb welds.

Is this where I'm supposed to post the s*** I do to my balled up hunk of metal? I guess I won't dirty up DNP's thread anymore.

But your balled up hunk of metal is a 120, if you post it here then I will be confused. You have a 4.0 powered Prado with a fancy wrinkled wrapper

I could move my posts from the GX thread to this one - the newer Tacomas and 5th Gen 4R are nearly identical under the body. Y'all care one way or another?

 

[wngrog]

I could start a 150 series thread lol

 

[Fireman]

Hell I just found this thread. I'm kinda slow.

 

[wngrog]

It was started so you would not put pics of blue balls in the 100 thread

 

[wngrog]

Finally got off my ass and installed the M8000 I got from @beno and the www.pelfreybilt.com hidden winch mount.

Super slick setup.

Looked up a YouTube video on how to pull bumper. Glad I did. Took about 15 minutes.

Base plate replaces the OEM aluminum crush bar.

The top plate is adjustable where you can push it flush with the bumper to sammich the fairlead

Mock up bumper. Draw fairlead holes. Trace hole. Jigsaw out.

 

[wngrog]

Yank out steel rope. Replace with synthetic.

Gotta cut top plastic piece so you can reach in and select freespool.

Winch $500 great price....

Mount $400

Rope $100

Hope I never have to use it

 

[dnp]

Very nice sano install

 

[MEMCruiser]

You'll use it to pull up stumps. That's slick. I might be getting me a TRD pro.

Looks great! I still haven't seen a bumper for 5th gen that I like. This seems like the best way to mount a winch to a newer 4Runner. Hopefully you will never use it, but it will be nice to have on your dirt adventures.

I'm starting to think your daughter may need a more stock lower mileage 4Runner when she is ready to drive and I might know somebody that would be willing to do a trade......
