That 37 fits in the rear fender at full compression? wow.

Properly bump-stopped, yes.

Nice and low.

Scotty sold it yes. Actually I believe he traded it for a sick buggy, and now the buggy sold?

I really hate seeing scottys runner because it makes me really want to build mine. LOVE Scottys old runner!!!

You building this a Dylans shop by chance?

yeah i've read that build thread 3 times. its a great source!! its a sexy sexy runner. its probably 90 percent of the reason why i'm building a 3rd gen you dont see very many built and when they are....its awesome! and no i'm not doing it at dylans, dylan has stopped by a couple times at this shop though.

Yeah, like was mentioned, I traded it for a comp buggy, and then sold the comp buggy in January. I plan on building a 4 seater this fall.

In meantime, I started playing around building some diesel trucks. I do still have my son's 4runner though too. He is 15 and is getting his permit next week. So, I plan on wheeling a lot with him. Doing 9 days in Moab at the end of May.

FWIW, I am too damn busy to wheel these days anyway.

lookin good! what's left? When is your goal to finish it by?

 

[huntinkid]

well its pretty much just tidying up stuff now. power steering lines and bleeding brakes. waiting on the coilovers they have 2 out of the 15 business days left to get them shipped to my house. basically this thing could be driving if i could have gotten the coilovers faster, so hopefully by the end of this week!
