So i left my wife to do her thing she hates me watching her work, came back with some food and had this to work with!







Got the timing belt, water pump, idler pully, tensioner pully, and auto tensioner installed. Along with new antifreeze coolant, and a new front drive belt (it came in the kit so why not lol) the kit also came with a new Tstat but im just holding on to that until the one i have goes bad. anywho good as new!



After experiencing mud in my air intake i was rather nervous to venture off into water crossings or mud holes. So I did a little research and found some old 3rd gens had installed an internal snorkel mod I did a write up for the 4th gens here: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/off-ro...d-4th-gen.html
but heres a few pics for the record... I also raised the rear differential breather to the gas tank fill neck or in other words i also did the DIff breather mod.





so with my worries out of the way it was time to play again!!!
