They are not mistaken facts, I assure you! What can say, Im just stated what I have seen before, not just pulling this shit out of my ass. My basic point was, that if someone wants more clearance for some off-roading at any level...a suspension lift is what you would want, a body lift isn't...

I was looking at doing this on my 99, and after looking at the repair manual, its pretty simple. All you have to do is unscrew the petcock on the bottom of the radiator, flush it out, and put some new coolant. Start your vehicle for a few, check your coolant levels and add more if nessesary.

Then is sounds like you need to have your fuel injection looked at.

Damn, well it sounds to me like you're gonna have to take it to some Toyota shop and have them check it out, thats kinda weird your mechanic hasn't been able to figure out why is still riding rough. What do you mean by "missing"?

So everything is working properly, except your check engine light keeps going on? Go to Autozone and have them run a diagnostic on it (free), it probably just needs to be reset. I had the same problem, the diagnostic showed I had a bad o2 sensor, but I had him reset it and the light hasn't...

Hey mano, I wouldn't mind seeing the video! Maybe Im being a little hard on the body lift, but I guess the point I was trying to make is that if you have a stock vehicle and are looking for more clearance, a body lift isn't exactly the way to go.

Hey, I didn't say they would give out right away, I just said it does put more stress on the mounts, and it will weaken with time. If you're doing 8-10 trails, then you have a suspention lift also, and have swapped out your IFS with a straight axle...so doing a body lift will probably help...

Yeah dude, I have...thats why I don't like them!

Hahahaha, thanks for the correction! EMU! Stress on the body mounts is another negative. And if you're going to be doing any off-roading, you want more clearance coming from your frame, not your body. Doing a body lift is like putting Super Charged emblem on your car when all you got is a...

Dude, don't get a body lift...such a waste of money!! I know youre not going to be doing lots of off-roading, but lifting you're body away from the frame doesn't help you out much, except being able to put bigger tires. Do you have an auto or stick shift? You will have to extend your shifter...

You may have already ckecked this, but it could be as simple as unbalanced tires, check that out if you haven't already. Does your Runner pull at all, if so it could be a combination of unbalnced tires and bad alignment. Good luck! If you have to replace your U-Joints, do it yourself...its...

This must be a common problem with 4Runner clocks, cuz mine doesnt work proberly either...and its so f'in annoying!!!! $200 is stupid, but $300 is worse! Thats what I got quoted at the dealer here in Denver. I also called around some local junk yards and no dice...some other SOB's with a non...

Right on Fitz, Im gonna have to check out those forums!

Thanks a lot man, but I got it all taken care of!! We should get together and hit up some 4x4 trails!

Are you serious?? Maybe you should go back and re-read the post genius! I was mearly pointing out that I got more advice about my 4Runner on a motorcycle forum, than an actual 4Runner forum. Learn something about your ride, other than making it shiny, than come talk to me. Well, I did do it...
