Well, its the end of an era for me, I guess: Sold the T100. First/only new vehicle I ever bought, right out of college. 14 years and 280,711 miles later, it still runs strong and has been a GREAT truck the whole time. Now somebody's kid is getting an awesome surprise 16th birthday present. I bet he'll be stoked. A short history in pics... And of course, more of my old T100 stuff here: http://home.4x4wire.com/erik/t100/ ![[Linked Image]](http://home.4x4wire.com/erik/t100/bodylift/before.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://home.4x4wire.com/erik/t100/t100-bikes2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://home.4x4wire.com/erik/t100/37s2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://home.4x4wire.com/erik/t100/nobodylift/IMG_0448.jpg) I'll still be sticking around the forum though.

Bought an 06 F350 crew cab last April to put a camper on and tow the 4runner with for long trips. Still need to find something better for commuting in though.

Well, I at least hope you told the kid's dad about the forums and how to maintain the truck! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Glad you are still in the yota family though with the 4runners! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

x2; hope you told Dad where junior can find his online support. I think I'd consider flying down there to bring it back here; I forgot how nice that thing is.

Booooo! So sad to see forum members lose their Ts.
On a related note, you don't still have the original alloys and want to sell them cheap, do you?

Wheels are long gone... I do have the 2" body lift with custom 2/1" drivetrain lift and modified bumper brackets and instructions still if anybody is interested. Still have an unused air filter too. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Put the items up in the 4-sale board, someone might want them. What happened to the suspension lift you made? Didn't you post that the guy wanting the truck, wanted it at stock height? I am sure someone her on the board would have snapped that up in a heartbeat! I am gonna miss that truck of yours, it was one like I always wanted, but never had time or money (wives and kids will do that to you) to put into mine!

So tempting. I think my body mounts have to be shot, and it would only make sense....
I just rolled 200k and will probably be gunning for the next 100k out of it, but I'm starting to think a new daily driver is in order and maybe some smaller toys.
Thanks for all your knowledge over the years, Erik. I hope the runner keeps serving you for a lonnnng time.

I left the suspension. It would have been a PITA to put stock springs back on the rear since I cut the mounts off.
I think I have the original body mounts too, Adam. Swapped them for poly when it was 2-3 years old (waste of money), so they should be in pretty good shape.
