Ehhh... vendors. I don't need more excuses and 'deals' wafted around. These jerks and their builds have me in plenty of expensive trouble.

I also like how this site is more tech discussion and bs without products.

edit: re-read that, wasn't trying to be dickish. also some of the vendors on that list are better fits than others. Caliraised and traxx...yea we don't need overland bro bait.
I don’t mind a hookup on parts needed for the tech stuff. After all the BS from the flybynights like chaz on cuckworld it’s good to have vendors that we know IRL

Na it was more like, if you need shit hit me up first. I'm not going to advertise here, we're aimed at the UTV market but lots of our parts cross scenes so just letting you guys know.
I think you guys should have a vendor account and at least have a listing to see what’s available. It’s symbiotic, the members for the forum have a benefit of being on here other than hearing my bad jokes

So...plenty of Runner experts here.
Thinking of picking up a scratch and dent from an auction (I know a guy).
Best years to get and why?
I like the idea of having the same 4.0 as in my Taco for reasons, but am not against any others per se.
And go....
What my Ninja @Itaro said except 03-05 the 05 is the way to go(they figure out the head gasket issue) 06-09 no head gasket issues and the grill and headlights are better looking and brighter. Stay away from the ksds or kdss whatever it's called shit it might be on the 5th gens anyway. Of course I didn't know any of this shit when I bought my 04 limited so I am patiently waiting for the head gasket to go one day.

I thought the v8 runners were 4.6. No clue how rare they are.
The 8's show up here and there. They do require the timing belt at 80 or 100k. Besides that they are solid motors. The 8 is also all time 4wd 70/30 split. When the rear slips then 50/50. Push button center diff lock on the dash. @Brindybot chime in on the v8 runners.

looking for 5x4.5 aka 5x114.3 wheels and tires. They need to be decent. Not looking for aftermarket wheels unless you're selling cheap. 3 is what i need but will buy 4 for the right price. Using on a small trailer.

If you have some wheels and tires taking up room within an hour of los angeles let me know

I've got some 5x5 jeep wheels in Philly.
