Is that the 38 gallon fuel tank? I have the same in mine. Good thing gas is under $2 a gallon!

The slee belly skid works well and I added another skid plate that mates up to the slee skid to protect that giant tank.

Installed my smittybilt XRC 9500 winch with synthetic rope.

Picked up a new airport beater for 1k. My 80 is a DD and would like to slow down the mileage I put on it so I'll see how a 3rd Gen 4runner treats me.

Nice find! A 38 gallon extended range tank and an original Slee rear bumper. They'll clean my up nice.

You got an 80. You can go anywhere.

haha, thank goodness it not my DD.

I've owned a couple of these. Great little trucks for sure!

Did the same couple years ago. I actually really like my '99 4r. Its been great and reliable and way better gas mileage. It's no 80, but fill that void nice.

They're even much better on gas even with a lift . I filled the void when I sold my first 80 with a 2000 4Runner. Great truck and very capable. Just not close to the cargo space and no tail gate to put your feet on when you sleep in the back.

Guess we are throwing up our 4Runner shots. Here's a couple of my 93 "The Honey Badger"

How well did that fit in your bumper? Is that an ARB Deluxe? I've been considering the synthetic X2O 10k from them.

My '80? I pretty much parked it, and fantasized about how friggin' cool it would look with a 40 or 45 body on it...

 

[e9999]

awwww.... these baby cruisers are soooo cute.....

FINALLY got around to installing my @yodaTEQ Gull Wing hatch (driver side only.) I've only had it sitting in the garage since early October...

Such a cool product - I can't wait to fill up the MOLLE with do-dads and cool stuff. I really like the utilitarian look of it too. I removed my inside-the-vehicle spare tire mount that was located on the driver side in favor of a 4x4 Labs bumper with a swing out (installing soon...) I'll make a platform for the fridge to take it's place, and be easily accessed from the new hatch.

I've got the interior tire mount (fits a 12.5" wide tire) with modular sleeping platform that I removed and am not using anymore... I'd love to sell it to a 'MUD member. I can post pics of it if there is interest.

Went to the junkyard to pick up an air box for my turbo build and found a pristine LX450 rear upper hatch with glass, wiper, locks, wiring, struts, ect. $200 out the door, no more rusty crusty hatch! It's not the right color, but my LX isn't exactly "matchy" and they do sell spray paint.

Wonder how hard it would be to fab up screens for the Gull Wing hatches?
