So last week i finally fixed the main problem that my 88 22re was having.. cylinder 1 wasn't firing properly. Turns out it was a valve gap issue and only had to adjust the gap. After that, the noise went away and gained around 25% power back.. sweet! Except for the fact that I was driving on the...

So my 88 Runner is pretty much all stock but I went by 4x4 Warehouse today to talk about lifts and whatnot and they quoted my like $3500 for a lift, wheels and tires. Not bad if I want a pretty gnarly truck.. but I dont want a gnarly truck.. I just want enough of a lift to get 33's on it and...

Awesome thanks! I'll go ahead and give that a try and see if we're good!

So I have an 88 22re manual and I took the top off over the holiday and I placed it back on tonight because it might rain. I didnt bolt it but I plugged the cable housing back in and now the window, lock and wiper don't work. Any ideas? :smashputer:

So I'm in the market for a 1st or 2nd gen. Dont care what color but I would like it to have a 22re, less than 200k on an original motor (rebuild i dont care so much of the mileage). Want to buy it soon because im carless at the moment. I live in San Diego but for the right car I'll pay to have...

Looking for a good mechanic in San Diego county this morning to conduct a PPI. any suggestions?

So I found a 1st gen 3.0 V6 on CL and went to check it out. Guy is asking $2750. A few things were wrong with it.. mostly cosmetic. Seals around the windshield and some of the back windows were showing bad wear.. the rear window doesnt roll down, the passenger seat doesn't move. No stereo center...

Saw this on craigslist and I'm looking into buying a 1st gen and I wanted to get your guys' opinion on it! 1987 Toyota 4Runner 4x4 Thanks!

The one thing I didn't mention was that Ford Credit is the lien holder. So I can't go to the bank and do it (because there isn't one)... in that case do I go to a dealership?

Hello! First post here and I'm not a T4R owner.. yet! I need to get rid of the car I have now, first. The problem is, I still owe $6,6XX on my lease. I wouldnt be upside down because I can get about 8500ish for my car. SO... my question is.. and I havent found a straight answer from my loan...
