it has been a while since I last posted here. I'm currently loving the 08' that I bought a couple of months ago, that I'm considering buying another one somewhere between 94-98 4x4. Eventhough the 94-95 are 2nd gen, are there any pros and cons with the 3rd gen. 4-runners? Any parts that have...

just remember that was the only mini van I know that came regular engine RWD, AWD, Supercharged and AWD/sUPERCHARGEd. Mine has 163,xxx miles on it and runs as smooth as a kitten. It is a great van.

Well with the shaft, I don't think the dealer installed it right or they just replaced the shaft and didn't even inspect the 3 isolator mounts that hold that accessory braket in place. The reason why mine went out a second time was the rear isolator bracket broke in half. but if you get decide...

I have a 94 LE Previa. No awd and no supercharger. It is has been the most reliable before the 4-runner. Only thing I have replace is the SAD shaft. the most common mechanical part that breaks. It now serves as my work vehicle and a parts runner. :D

Thanks for the welcomes and complements. So far I have been on here quite a bit. Getting ideas what to do with my 4-runner. Although I will try very hard to refain placing mods on this rig, I hopefully will get some really good ideas for the future. Until then, I'll make myself at home, make a...

I'll get pictures up later, just need to resize them.

Hi my name is Ben and just purchased a new 08' 4-Runner Black SR5. This is my first 4-runner, and needed to find a site that can be informative about these vehicles and help if problems arise.
