Biggest 4runner EVER-

Well in my efforts to find the Japanese OEM tire carrier that we sadly did not get over here, I think I've found THE BIGGEST, and STUPIDEST 4runner ever created......

I figure an 8ft ladder should do it, but that's a guess

lol i think its cool...maybe useless and not practical at all. But its almost a relief to see unique stuff like that then a 92 Honda Civic with a 5" exhaust tip and a APC stickers all over it...

at least there is some reinforcement... it might be overbuilt framewise, but isnt ghetto built like a lot of people do....

I have ONE question...

How do you change the oil?

With all that steel around the engine, and the hood being a good 4' above the top of the engine, I don't see something as simple as an oil change being easy on that POS.
