I rolled up next this guy this morning leaving Richland and thought maybe you had changed your mind about the blue...

I got a chance to chat real quick at a light, turns out he had a 4 runner and rolled it so he decided to make it a truck... He also has a little one so he liked the idea of keeping the back doors. He said he's still looking for a rear window and had a piece of plexi in there for now. I told him to look us up online and check out your build...

nice

You did a super clean job with the rear chop. Ive painted 2 cars with rustoleum red. I found out sun on a warm day will really speed up the dry time.

Did you only use primer and color? We used self etching primer, rusto red, and them rusto clear. Look super professional. Also glad to see another yota guy on here. I met you the other day with jose when we picked up the engine lift plate.

Actually i used rustoleum smoked gray for primer.I'm to cheap to spend alot of money on paint just to scratch it out wheeling.

Very nice. 8)
Looks a lot bigger than the pickup version.





Maybe its the extra two doors that makes it look so big.
Some Wranglers have that problem. :lol: :lol:

so to update my build thread.
we took it out for the Halloween 3 ball to do the first real testing. I wanted to run out before we started to play but having a few beers and still letting my excitement calm down from just having it on the trailer and unloading at juniper. hahaha. so I didn't get to run it before we started and just figured that when I run it ill see what happens. So played 3ball and won and had absolutely not one issue the whole night. I could not have asked for more of a perfect run with it. the kiddos love having all that room back there too. :D

I'm very happy with how the rig performed. way better then the truck.
I do have some changes in the very close future to do some better upgrades. :lol:

AND VERY BIG THANK YOU TO TIM AND JOSE FOR THE HELP AT THE END TO MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO RUN AT 3BALL
