Contacts are inside the starter. Starter contacts are the one that fail so best is replacing the contacts and plunger as a kit. There is an ebay seller in El Paso TX who sells good kits.
Some 4runners have a hard time getting the starter out of the engine bay due to it's location (V6) mine did too, so it was easy for me to just replace the contacts from the opening on front pass side. Had to remove wheel, support the truck on jack stands and remove the splash shield that separates engine from wheel well. First Disconnect the battery.
