I went to heaven today
or in some cases, hell.
I went to a 4Runner junkyard... and oh my god, I fell in love! It's in Mira Loma, they've got EVERYTHING.
I pulled the mirrors I wanted, green 01 SR5 mirrors, $40 a pop.
4 green door handles, $10 bucks a pop
Sport buckets, $200 for a mint set.
A cargo mat, $20.
I saw everything... torched 4Runners, smashed and rolled 4Runners, cut in half 4Runners, bloody 4Runners, it was all there. In this lot, there were maybe 200 cars. 100 of them, 3rd Gen 4Runners.
I am going to get an Imperial Jade Mica sport hood, front and rear bumpers soon.
If anyone needs a black sport hood, they've got a mint one there if you want. PM me for info.
Basically, im the happiest ****er today haha because now my 4Runner doesn't look base whatsoever.
Oh yeah, and I'm going back for more for years. I'm buying a front clip for a 92 project we have.
I didn't really get any pics while I was there because I was too busy carrying shit, but I did get one of the torched 01 I got my mirrors from. You can see other 3rd gens in back.
anyone need some stuff? haha.
yes a new OEM clock! woo! no more totalled corolla clock for me!

Very nice,
Would they have any moon roof for sale?
How much did you pay for the clock? I paid $30 for mine and the dealer wanted $300 for it.

Do you have an address for this junkyard? Are you allowed to enter and pull parts and look for yourself? and do charge an entrance fee?

Yes dude, tons of sunroofs.
You don't actually pull the part, they have dudes that do it for you. You just tell them the part, they pull it. No entrance fee.
The clock was free actually, from a 97.
Address is 12421 Riverside Dr, Mira Loma. It's called Crossroads Foreign.
If you can dream it, they got it.
Except sport hoods are hard to come by, most 4Runners there are damaged in the front one way or another.
They do clear out their inventory very frequently, so if they dont have your part, they're going to refill the lot with new wrecks every two weeks.
And they do free delivery, I'm 1 hour and 30 minutes away and they're going to deliver me an entire 92 4runner front clip! free!
this place is legit dude, for real.

Nice find, I have a local yard I frequent that usually has a 20 or more. I am always amazed at all the ways you can crash a car.

Pretty cool stuff.
Take more pictures next time you go!
I'm gonna have to look for one of those places, too...that could be a fun day just poking around and picking up odds-and-ends.
I can see how it would be a great resource for your truck, replacing the "base" stuff with improved parts, and all in the correct color.

Damn, your lucky.
How much did they want for a new clock?
What was the cost of the sports hood?

I bet their business will literally double if I tell you guys.
Ha, and they can always ship, right?
Here you guys go.
Crossroads Foreign
12421 Riverside Dr., Mira Loma, CA
(909) 983-8694
toll free 1 (877) 232-6737
Google map the address, the lot you see, the entire right side, and I mean the entire right side starting from the middle of the lot, is 4Runners.
