wally's 87 4runner upkeep thread
no build, as i bought one in pretty good condition, with low mileage - 97,097 when i purchased it in may 2013. previous owner had replaced both front fenders and rear quarters. it was a rear-seat delete runner, which i have converted to a normal 4-seat runner.
before putting it on the road, i finished por-15 painting the underside and frame, as well as repairing the rocker behind the driver's front wheel. this had rotted out i believe because of a leaking master cylinder, either the brake or clutch. both have been replaced, and don't leak.
pics from the day after i brought it home, followed by other pics. interior was in pretty good shape, with a single small dash crack to the right of the inclinometer.
plans are not to deviate a whole lot from stock configuration. i bought this to be my work vehicle, replacing my 300K-mile '95 subaru wagon. i don't need it for wheeling, as i have a decently built '75 cj-5 for that, which is my toy.
