Don't do it!!! It's not worth the trouble! You can ruin your marriage.. My advice: sell it to me.. I live about 6 hours from SLC and can arrange to pick it up next month! :D

Next thing to check: Fuel filter (+ seafoam wouldn't hurt), injectors, TPS, AMF, and O2 sensors. There are methods of checking these components before replacing them..Let us know what you find.

Can't tow anymore so.... I'm selling my trailer (was used to haul my bikes). Only 2 years old and about 3k miles on the trailer. Has new tires, new reinforced strait axle (installed at KB trailer). Comes with both motorcycle wheel chocks, and fron jack. All lights work and trailer is in decent...

Found this on the 22r/e engine: Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_R_engine

I got a 2003 SV650S. Are you pulling it with a 3vz-e or 22re? I also have a R1 and plan on setting up the sv for track only. I want to find a light weight trailer that can tow 1 bike since my 22re isn't really designed to pull (though I plan on having a performance engine installed next week).

Ordered $4,000.00 worth of parts! Getting a custom built Keith Black 9.7:1 22RE engine from Zuki Engines. Also getting a pro clutch kit from LCEngineering, steering box, P/S pump, P/S hoses (to correct P/S system leak) alond with a few other various parts to go with the new engine. 1991 Toyota...

I just ordered the Keith Black Engine from Zuki Engines (Zack Lee) awesome service so far. I plan on having the long block engine dropped in next week at our local performance 4X4 shop. Just ordered a few parts from LCEngineering and plan on getting some basic parts from the local auto parts...

UPDATE: After doing a lot of research I'm pretty sure I'll go with Zuki Engines and their performance Keith Black 9.7:1 engine. I'm currently working with them, he usually needs several weeks to build one but might be able to get me one sooner than usually expected for one of their performance...

Awesome thread! You just went though my town Page,AZ not too long ago. Great write up and the pictures are amazing! This is exactly what I've always wanted to do. Look forward to reading about your journey. I've noticed the amazing support that comes with forum communities like this one and I'm...

Thanks for the feedback! At the time I wrote this thread I was thinking about replacing my 4Runner with another 4Runner in much better condition (but had to be the 22RE w/ 5spd and 4WD). I decided to replace the engine with a quality rebuilt long block and I'm going to have it shipped tomorrow...

Short history: Few months back a purchased a pretty worn out 1991 Toyota 4Runner with a 22RE motor, 5speed manuel transmission w/ 4X4, and 263,000 miles. I knew that it had a few issues before purchasing this truck for $2K such as burning oil and p/s fluid leak. I recently brought it to the shop...

Thanks for the tips and good brainstorming. I'm sure it will all work as it should once all the switches are put back in their proper places. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can find these switches? Switches I need: both center console switches/buttons (rear window and window...

Pretty good logic for 19. I agree 100%, I'm 30 (if that matters) and I have gone through the whole new truck phase and know that it's not worth it. You're throwing money away for a truck that's a few years newer. I get the feeling that you don't really want to buy a new truck but your wife is...

I'm new to the toyota 4Runner as well, but it sounds like you might have torn thrust arm/ control arm bushings. This could get more expensive if you continue to drive it in that condition. You need to have it looked at and fixed ASAP before more parts go bad.

Would your '94 tail lights work on my '91 4Runner?
