Anyone get much past 300k on a 3rd gen 4runner?

You went that far and never put a timing belt kit on it?

yeah i have never seen or heard of a timing belt breaking on one of these. what gives out is typically the water pump. and to remove the water pump you have to remove the timing belt...

fyi these are noninterference motors-5vze (v6)

How long ago was this? Bob from Texas has 750K ish on his '99 Limited. That was the highest mileage one I've heard of until now.

Thanks to all the great advice here, chances of making it past 300+ are getting better and better.

I see them on craigslist from time to time. 300+ miles, good compression, no leaks, no smoke.

Thank God something is built right in this world

Guy I worked with had his timing belt break on his T4R 5vzfe. His fault, he never changed it. Had well over 200k+ miles.

I don't think I would ever replace the timing belt on these unless I was already doing something that had me removing it like changing the water pump. If it were an interference motor I would but one of the reasons I bought this truck is because it is a non interference motor.

Sounds to me like he saved over $1000 in unnecessary maintenance since he didn't changed it at recommended intervals. lol

It was the beginning of August this year. We were told they didn't plan on getting rid of it. They wanted to keep it on the showroom floor to show off.

I have 327,000 and change on mine a 1998 limited and I am in the middle of a complete front end rebuild/re-gear/updated rear suspension/new leather/new lights/roof rack lights etc....somewhere to the tune of 6k or more....I bought it new off the lot and it has been bullet proof with solid maintenance. I plan on keeping this thing forever even when I do buy a new vehicle in 5 yrs or so. Best vehicles on the road!
