I need to buy a steering wheel for my 1996 4Runner. Mine has started to come apart on the top. After that I am planning on selling my beloved. I've owned her for 14 years. Let me know if you have one available. Thank you.

You can always strap it down to a dyno and do before after dynos. I be surprised to see anything over 5HP difference. Different in turbo vehicles, and high compression vehicles.

I second this. Leatherique is the best product hands down. Still use it today>

Sounds like you had some piece and quiet. Looks good!

Sold it! Got rid of it and am looking for a V8 4th Generation.

I have never reached above 17MPG, and around town is 14MPG. I don't care about gas milage, but as slow as this vehicle is, I care about it.

You're not missing anything, yes the vehicle is sluggish. After reading other people's points, I do tend to think the Limited losses some of the performance. Try driving a SR5 or Trail before you scrap the idea.

It mostly has to do with the tune, but most manufacturers tune for Cali craptane 91. If available 93 (most in the south have) I would get run as piece of mind and a safety net. Certainly don't want pre-detonation.

Noticed you had steering column, but was wondering if you would part with the steering wheel?

Finally someone that has a high end sports car and 4Runner. I thought everyone had trucks with the 4Runners. How would you ever leave that GTR and say "I think I am going to drive the 4Runner"?

Boy what a late night the other night and my typing sucked!!:gun5: Let me be clear about one thing, I do enjoy the vehicle at times. I enjoy the ride quality, the lack of maintenance needed, the ease in getting replacement parts, the ease in a technician diagnosing problems quickly without...

I have been one of the biggest critic's of this vehicle. I hated this vehicle from day ONE. I currently have a 96 4Runner and a 2011 4wd Limited The lack of performance and front in noise dive problem is drying me crazy to sell. It's acutally going to be traded on on a 2013 BMW M3. I do enjoy...

Can I assume a 2002 4Runner steering wheel will fit on a 1996 4Runner without any modifications? Mine needs to be replaced.

If anyone would want to sell me a factory black front bumper cover for 2012 that would be great. I have a 2" scratch that I can't live with.

It does appear to be bid high. In closing I am selling my 4Runner.
