4Runner Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Hello everybody. My name is Donavon Buck. I'm out of utah and bought it last year before Christmas. I bought it with the cold air and leveling kit that lowered the back 1.5" it seems. I have replaced the T-case and put power stop drilled and slotted brakes. And a fresh paint job. I bought this to be a tow vehicle for my rock crawler. I have done 2 trips with it and does great pulling my 4Runner. I have only raced it at the track once and pull a 16.01. Hope to be fast this year. Plans for this truck, I plan to do a lot. I am going to do air bags in the rear to stay off my bump stops while pulling or accelerating. Also want to do a better trans cool and shift kit. Want to do a bully dog programmer chip full exhaust and a tune. My brother in law wants me to do twin turbos but that's a little more work then I want to do. I want to do rims but couldn't imagine different rims on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akslowroller Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 She sure is purty. I've never really liked the stockers blacked out. But for some reason I like that look on your truck. I'm so confused right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC03SS Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Nice truck just a warning those brakes suck ass. They only lasted me 3 years and were gone. They all craked between the holes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downeast Johnny Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Welcome to the site Donavon. Congrats on finding your truck. What did the new paint run ya? There are several well liked tuners the guys around here use. I use Zippy and am real happy. The rock crawler's got the SSS squatting pretty good, huh?

4Runner Posted January 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Thanks for the welcoming. The paint job was right around 9000 with the body work we did. Ya the crawler weighs in at 4114 and the trailer weighed 1040 I think. But had more then enough power. That sucks about the breaks. I heard a lot of good things about them. Does zippy have a all wheel dyno that will fit the wheel base? I went to permier performance and the dyno was to short. Truck had been a lot of fun though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4Runner Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 I was on here reading and I seen someone put the 07 Tahoe 13" brakes on the front. I may do that. But I'd like to see what I can do for the rear. I want this thing to stop with my fat crawler on the back Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've done it many times....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
