    did you use the 4runner front core? if not, can you send pictures on how the lights are mounted?

    Stock core. I didn't take pictures:/. But the trick/ mods can be figured out easily when you got everything together. Get the 4Runner grille and the headlights and do a test fit. From there everything will come to you. It's really not hard.

    Thanks man, and welcome to the club! When you pull the bumper off the 4Runner take the fenders also.

    You will need the 4Runner corner nights too. Also there are two corner brackets that connects both the left and right bumper ends to the fenders, you will need those as the ones off the pickup are designed slightly different. After that you are set. Both the pickup and 4Runner bumpers mounts in the exact spot on the frames so that will be straight forward. Let me know if you have more questions.

    K bro thanks a lot and the power window in the runner do you think it could be setup to work in my truck without a lot of trouble or do u think I should just get the universal power window set?. plus I am going to take out the cluster cause I'm converting to gearbox and I wanted rpm in, have any advice on the cluster?.

    If you are pulling the entire wiring setup it shouldn't be too bad. But it will take some work for sure. I'm actually looking at doing that at some point. Haven't looked far into it so I wouldn't know that much details just yet. And you can get RPM with just the cluster, you don't have to switch the the gear box, unless you meant you are switching from auto to manual;)? If that's the case you are good either way. And I'd recommend you Read the cluster upgrade thread before you start doing the work.

    Yes I did. I bought one of these https://www.zoro.com/ingersoll-rand...KMwOGMOz915FOO_GNzBNqhoCocHw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds, and cleaned the old flicks of rust off the frame and then used a paint brush with the Toyota recall rust treatment and painted the entire frame.

    Thanks man! I know I'll add them back. Been a sad weekend actually, I was a victim of a hit and run Friday afternoon. Some dude ran me off the free way trying to change lanes and my truck is fucked!

    Man.... Dood that really sucks I'm sorry that happened. I'm not a big guy but I would have just seen red. How extensive is the damage?

    Yeah. I don't know yet but from the look of things, the entire front suspension is gone{tie rods are token} which is an easy fix, but the beltech drop spendle on the passenger side is damaged, rear wheel and tires are damaged, front end is smashed in and either the cab or frame is twisted because there is a small gap between the cab and bed on the driver's side. but I have to get it home to really inspect it. The insurance company is supposed to inspect it today and I'll know more later on.
