I think its time to start a build/maintenance thread for my 2000 Toyota 4runner SR5 Sport Highlander.
After years of searching I finally purchased this early last year from the original owner that was meticulous and gave me service records in a 3" binder. All maintenance work was done at Toyota in Fresno, CA. Initially searched for a limited with E-locker, but stumbled upon this low mileage non locker SR5 sport with no rust and fell in love.
In the beginning how it looked for 8 Months
