Mounting it solo is a bit challenging but doable..... used a dog bed and pillow to slide it up onto the roof and onto the mounting plates - this things is really nicely built !! will post better picsi n my build thread tomorrow. Mounting took about an hour and a half. I had Gobi build it for a 42" LED bar and need to order that up now that I've measured it..... and put the windscreeen on.

Slee brake line extensions installed and extended diff breather vent during ICON shock installation. I've heard of varying experiences with longer travel shocks and the need to extend brake lines and diff breather vent. For mine, was told the brake lines that extend were really close to being fully stretched and the diff breather vent really needed to be extended. Was a good move to have both extended. Just something to think about if you're considering longer travel shocks.

Had Slee install their OME 1.5" medium lift kit with diff drop and SPC UCAs. Totally different truck. Rides great, the OME shocks are sporty but not rough at all. A front and rear bumper will smooth them right out, but not this year. Nice people, did a great job.

Before:




After:



I have some BIOR sliders (the Ryan Hayes model) on order, hopefully have them in July. Other than that bumpers, skid plates, etc. will have to wait until next year.

Have a great Father's Day to all those fathers out there..
 
Replaced front and rear shocks and OME 2865s - tomorrow I'll crank the TBs to get rig of the 3" stinkbug stance I've created, but the ride is great so far.

Wired up the fridge for my mom's 99 with a blue sea in the side panel compartment. I had a custom pan built for her's and mine, new fridge slide bolted to third row seat mounts coming soon. I'll be giving away my wood fridge slide & pull out table soon if anyone wants it. Fits edgestar 63 or anything smaller.

this week... got my 98LC with the blown engine, sold the supercharged engine, purchased a 2003 111k engine, Pulled the engine from the 98LC, ordered a bunch of small parts... timing kit, gaskets, hoses, shocks, bushings, filters, will pressure wash and detail engine compartment in the morning... this is my second engine swap on a 100series I thought I could get the engine out in 3-4 hours on the second go round, working alone I have 6hrs in it... 45min of which is one 12mm bolt that holds the trans lines to the side of the block right behind the alternator... it really is the only beach of a bolt to get out... ( get to) on the whole removal process... 1st go round I did not know it was there and bent the metal lines lifting the engine out with them still connected... which might be faster... next week>>>>

4-5 hours to make a 4Runner engine into a "100series" engine which includes timing belt and water pump... then drop her back in....
 
Spent the morning with the good folks at ACC Garage in ATL. Great bunch of people. Oil change, front/rear diff and transfer case fluid change, and new brass heater hose T's. Old ones were definitely in need of replacement at 128k.

Only pic I could find, don't have my 100 this weekend. It's painted black and installed on passenger side now. But can be mounted on either side with third row seat mounts.

That is pretty slick! If saint doesn't snag it up I would be interested. I have a ironman 50L so it would fit fine. Not trying to jump a line if others are interested though.
 
Nah I just wanted to check it out. I already have a slide in my drawer system.

That is a slick slide setup.

It's nothing special, but gets the job done. If you want it you can have it, it weighs about 35-40 lbs so shipping might not make sense. Maybe someone east bound could take it your way.
 
Installed the 3rd row for a family road trip. Pic. My sister is driving and I'm riding 3rd row on the way back. It's actually kind of cozy back here.

If anyone is willing I would gladly throw some money for gas their way, or if no one takes it from you I can snag it on the way the HIH next month. I wonder what it would cost to ship. Think it would be under 75?
