Tried on ebay.co.uk, unfortunately nothing... well, one thing coming from Hong Kong and that was 1000 USD including shipping. That's the core of the problem: this car has never existed here, the only few existing (that are also aging) are Japanese Surfs, and they're RHD while mine is LHD. Works ok for some parts, but not for a steering rack (also had the issue with a radiator and some 5VZFE-specific parts as no import got that engine). The perks of having a unique car in the country |
I didn't know you have a US spec 4runner. Thought it was a Hilux Surf. The Amayama is in English and just like partouq.com. Enter the vin and search the part. MIne is at 215K miles and not a single drop of leak in the steering rack.
Are you using good branded ATF fluid? Other cheap ATP fluids will leak. It happened to our Hilux because we used a non-name brand ATF. After doing a fluid flush with Mobil-1, the leak went away completely!
