Our '87 4R SR5 Honduras Coffee/Missions Rig Build...

[Cannon88]

Seems like it would be easy to make something, maybe out of a windshield shade or something. Make sense? Even if it's temporary. Believe it or not, a couple of years ago me and a friend found a perfect sunroof, shade and all, in a 4Runner at a junk yard in Fort Worth. Paid $50 for the entire thing. So don't give up!

 

[The Jade Bean]

$50 for both is the deal of the century!

Ok I ordered the sun roof cover. It may be pricey, but worth it to me.

 

[PhrogsPhorever]

My 87 came with the cover, love it!

 

[The Jade Bean]

Got our cover in and fits like a glove! My only complaint is its blue, not grey like the described. Oh well 1st world problem I guess.

 

[Kris]

Blue... Gray... Some of us have difficulties distinguishing colors. Be thankful it's not red.

 

[G-Cat]

Grab a spray can of gray vinyl dye and give it a painting.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Anyone have a grey or black steering wheel column for tilt for sale?

 

[Kris]

I probably do? Just moved half-way across the country and don't remember what came with me. I'll dig through my pile this weekend and let you know.

 

[Kris]

Well I have bad news... I couldn't find the cover. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist, I just didn't want to de-shrink-wrap my cruiser to dig around.

Working on the roof rack now. How much weight do you think the rain gutters can hold? 300-500lbs?

 

[pappy]

On the shell or the truck? I would NOT attach a roof rack on the shell. Those gutters are not at all structural. I've never had more than 100# on mine (cab), so I really don't know how much they can handle.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Yeah sry, cab of the truck. My shells gone. I was reading it was at least #300 on LC.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Started doing some planning for the tire swing out today till it started to sprinkle at least. Working on the best way to set up the spindle and think I've got the idea. We'll see.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Ordered these doors to build storage compartments for the back of the 4R.

 

[Fireman]

Link to where you got them?

Boat Access Hatch 10" x 14" set of 2 Inspection Deck Plate No Scuff Black Nice!
The best deal I could find online in black pvc. Going to make aluminum boxes to bolt to them and then bolt to the side panels. I'll post up as I go of course.

 

[The Jade Bean]

Also I'm going to add locks, but my rig will be in HND so security is a bit more needed.

Pic teaser...not done.
