I've owned my 4runner for awhile but this was the first time I had taken it on a real off road trail and man was it a blast! It really makes me want to lift it but I just think it would tempt me to do things that I shouldn't do. :roadkill: Anyone know of any good trails around Boulder that...

Before I acquired this 4runner, someone ran it into a guard rail when it was icy(I was in the car) so now that it's my car I want to fix it... I need to know what these two parts are called and where the best place is to buy them. Oh and the weather striping of course.. Must be matching paint...

ahahahah

ha yeah, they are the best generation. :bigok:

it's nothing special but I just got it so..

I say go for it!

that looks good, the only tint I have is 25%. it would look silly though unless I did it all. :AK47:

Hmm that's interesting because the only time mine does is at 65mph+ going down I-70. I think I'm just going to get some of those Brembo's and call it good.

you trying to shit on my parade or something? lol I've already been to a couple different places and this is the "cheapest" so far. It's not like anything that happens to the engine would be the guys fault, it's not like they were his engines. As long as he does the job and the car runs I...

We don't know anything about either of the cars they came out of, and neither does the guy with the engines. He's just charging us to put it in, he won't sell the engine alone. So it's $2200 for the 115k engine and $2500 for the 90k engine. I will find out about if the timing belt or water...

I can choose between one engine with 115k miles for $1200 or one with 90k miles for $1500. Do you guys think that 25k miles are really worth $300? I want to say yes to the one with 90k miles but we know nothing about the cars they came out of. I wouldn't think they would be that far off in...

win! I guess they found a place with an engine and they are going to install it for 2500 including the engine and a 90 day warranty, they also will inspect after 500 miles to make sure everything's good. this is gonna be awesome, I can't wait to get rid of my shitty ford escort!

it's all good dude, you're helping me just as much if not more than yourself by asking that question. :lol:

it's hard to imagine what life would be like if you judged everything by looks.

alright well yeah that was baseline auto. I called Repair Master Auto and they said best case scenario would be $1800, worst case would be $2100 for labor I think only. So that sounds a lot more reasonable.. They said 23hours maximum. See my dad just lets shops take advantage of him, they...
