I found a guy locally on craigslist (Charlotte, NC) parting out a 93 4runner. I paid him a visit last night. i was hoping to find a good bumper, valence, grille, and headlights. Unfortunately the bumper and valence were junk. But, I was able to score the grille, headlights(complete- bulbs, lenses, buckets, and pig tails) I was also able to score a set of slightly dirty but other wise perfect gray cloth buckets. All for the low, low price of $100. I took everything to work with me today just in case we were a little slow. I had enough time today to actually get the grille and headlights in today. Honestly, it was a lot easier than expected. It only required very minimal cutting. i think i might have taken out a total of maybe 4 sq inches at the most. I had already installed the runner fenders about 2 weeks ago i found them at the local u-pull-it. I have the clear corners on order should be here by the middle of next week. I know everyone is going to want to see some pics but it is too dark to take them now and I forgot to do it earlier but i will take them tomorrow and try to get them posted up. I should have my seats in by then as well. I received the truck with honda civic buckets in it and i hate them. I can't ready for somethings a little more comfortable.

 

was it too dark or did you want us to go to bed in anticipation, can't wait to see the pics

looks great!

 

my clear corners have arrived today i will get them installed tomorrow and i will also take pics of my seats i found a trick to mount the seat belts without having to weld in nuts for them. i will disclose it in the pics.

 

Looks good man, your well on your way now, goodluck with the truck!

 

i got my corners in today. Unfortunately I ordered them before i knew i was getting the grille so soon. I had ordered the 4wd clears to run with my 2wd grille for the time being. Well they don't quite match up but they will have to do till i get paid again and i can order the right ones.

 

Looks great, was that a hard conversion?

 

honestly it was relatively easy. to do the grille and headlights only took about an hour and a half at my shop.

 

that looks very good? what's your shop name?
btw have you heard of One Stop Shop? i forgot the name, but it's my sister's gas station in South Carolina. Vi and Vincent. you might know them.

btw nice truck
