your truck may be damaged, but at least you were temporarily protected from brush. Now you're fully exposed!

The value is totally dependent on recent maintenance. Compare the maintenence you'll ahve to do, add that to the value, and see what you can get for that money elsewhere. The car may be worth anywhere from $500-$2500 based on condition and needed repairs. A cheap car can get very expensive if...

don't know, but they're 10x harder to replace. the LBJ are super easy, but the uppers have to be pressed out/in. There's a pretty good writeup on pirate4x4 somewhere.

I noticed a torn LBJ boot on my '99 w/ 188K and that repair resulted in replacing: both LBJs both outer TRE both UBJ New inner CV joint boots w/ new grease new front diff fluid New brake hoses new brake pads new brake rotors new caliper rebuilds You'd be amazed how much rusted and worn parts...

They ride much better than my sagging '99 coils. I got a good amount of lift and i'm pretty happy with them. I'm using new stock replacement Rancho RS5000 shocks and they feel pretty good too. You also don't have to worry about the rear rubber brake hose with these springs either; just a...

because it's comfortable and cheap since I am still using my stock front springs. they are '99 fronts though.

Well, I have a '99 with OME 906 coils in the rear and stock springs in the front. The OME coils were installed last week to correct some sag and I love them so far. I get about 1/2"-3/4" of rake with this setup and that's perfect for me. I also have the infamous "running board removal lift"...

I've seen it recommended far too often: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/45704-those-who-have-used-sea-foam.html#post405104 http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/62423-hose-seafoam.html#post522844 http://www.toyota-4runner.org/general-discussions/62679-seafoam.html#post524757...

So, i'd like to clarify, the improper way to run Seafoam through the car's intake system is to use a vacuum line that only feeds one cylinder. If you used the brake booster vacuum line, you've only been feeding a single cylinder. In this picture below, you can see the brake booster vacuum...

I've heard nothing but great reviews on Diamond. Good choice.

I would not consider cross drilled rotors an upgrade. you have less stopping power and are prone to stress cracks now. cross drilled should serve you fine, but i don't see any advantage. fosheezy, what are the dimensions of your setup? tire diameter, tire weight + wheel weight? I measured...

sheezy, what's your tire diameter? also, what's the overall weight of your tires + wheels? I'm not so sure you're putting extra wear + tear on your drivetrain.

there are a few of us. read this link: http://www.yotatech.com/f2/well-i-do-need-lift-trail-pics-120326/ if you're interested in going sometime, we should organize a trip. i have never gone though it looks like fun

just get a '02 tail. looks better imo
