If you have close to 20k to spend go find another 5th gen I have loved both my 3rd gens (will always love them huge improvement over second gens, owned them also). The 5th gen finally got it perfect good power decent size, but you know this, and the 4.0 is tried and true not to mention a real...

I believe i need front 8 coil lc springs for my rear (tired of loosing my springs with my poly spacers pos). It is my wheeling rig and I'm tired of searching (here and google) and don't have time to look for color codes on every cruiser at the junk yard yet alone pull them and try sh% t loads of...

Just one more thing you might want to check. The radiators (on automatics) can go bad and mix your tranny fluid with your coolant. If that's the case might as well replace it with your t-belt/water pump. Disregard if your rigs a manual/standard transmission.

The switch went bad that operates my rear window (the hatch not the doors) and I'm having a hell of a time finding a replacement. Is this a junkyard or dealer part only or can somebody point me in the direction of a parts supplier that carries these or even a part number (dealers are closed...

I have 240000 on mine 3.4 with a good oil change history receipts from previous owner and my own religious changing. When I bought it with 200000 it still had the original timing belt. It runs like a top and doesn't leak any oil. If you get one that's been taken care of it will go a very long...

Did you extend your panhard bar or use a drop bracket? I know it seems like it wouldn't make much difference but it does smooth out the ride. I tried avoiding spending the extra money on them (I've bought 3 96,97,2011 4runners lifted) but they never felt right in the rear ends over bumps. I...

My only bit of advice is use the Toyota gasket sealer it's expensive but it is the best. I use there stuff on everything I work on, they have special stuff for transmissions also and I haven't had any of them even weep a bit since I started using it. (Yes, drop your tranny pan clean out the...

best color out there very nice:cheers:

Goodluck with the dealership mine assured me they'd have no problem if I remember it was close to 3hrs and they conveniently couldn't print or show me my end adjustment results "printer ate it" still looking for a good shop. Steering isn't right, bought 17x9 wheels will try another shop when...

I figured out a way to shut the buzzer off when you remove your seat belt without having to go to the dealer. I haven't seen this option on here so thought I'd post it up. Put it in 4Lo and climb some rocks bam no buzzer. Unfortunately, not a permanent fix unless you stay in the hills. also...

you guys are killing me this is some funny s**t.

Does anyone know where the entrance point to crystal peaks from sparks/reno? I'm doing these forums off my cell phone ;) Thanks so much....off we go to explore!

Thanks for the replies, headed out in the morning (it is friggin hot down here). I am stoked rubicon will have to wait a few hundred thousand more miles, I roll this thing now and I would have to kiss my house good bye (or at least half of it). I've never wheeled outside my home state and am...

Hey everybody I'm in Reno/Sparks (Nevada) for a few days and need a place to go wheeling "legally". Any help in breaking in my OW 2.0 lift would be appreciated, Thanks

My sr5 also has the party button thank you very much :flipoff: sorry, I just really like this little guy he really spoke to me, nothing personal to anybody.
