Yeah DHL rocks. Excesivefire, if you want some 4Runner tires, you can probably get a set from TwistedCreations. I think he has some. I bought some from him a while back. The beads on the tires are very wide however, so you can't use some rims without trimming back the inner bead. (If it's still there.

| Body is HUR
Well like I said, the body got here, safe and sound  I started to take it apart and upon further inspection found a small break in the rear pillar, so I scuffed the area up good, and started on the repair  Some thing styrene and some plastitruc glue, however ya spell the crap, and we are in buisness, good as new.  That styrene I add there is something I started doing on my bruiser runner bodies, I also add another part in by the pillars, just for a lil extra strength to be safe  well the primer was badly spidered, probably because the silver beneath wasnt wet sanded. so I started wet sanding...20 minutes later it look 10x...then I took a break started scrubbing my friend juggsterrs interior down that I am stripping the paint off to give an ECSC touch to for his yota build and quickly said to myself " F this I hate wet sanding...GAYYYY" took the cab out to the garage and dunked it in the castrol...primer and paint below is falling right off then ill lightly wet sand it (got to) prime it, and lay some paint BTW check out these sick link mounts I am getting for this, few different style to choose from... THANKS Kev!  |

You suck Mike And yes, your doors suck too. They open to the outside of the fenders, not the inside like a real one would |
