    2000 4Runner Jerks Right When Braking

    Thanks for the reply. I am going to replace or rebuild. I have the same color 4Runner as you do. Your truck looks so nice. Mine is in great shape, garage kept and has not seen to much salt. I am in process of getting minor body work done to clean it up. After I read your maintenance thread...

    2000 4Runner Jerks Right When Braking

    Hi, I have a 2000 4WD 4Runner Limited. When I hit the brakes at nearly any speed, the steering wheel jerks to the right but almost immediately returns to center and braking then feels even left-to-right. All brakes (pads, shoes, drums and rotors) are new, front and rear. I am thinking it is a...

    Customized Door Panels Wanted - 2000 4Runner

    I have a 2000 4Runner Limited and hate the door panels. I guess it is th way I sit, but my leg leans up against the edge where the power windows and locks are mounted, and it is very annoying and uncomfortable while driving. I think too it is due to the fact that 4Runners are so narrow inside...

    Need More Leg Room

    Thanks, that does make sense and worth a try. I read somehere else someone raised the seats and it made sitting more comfortable.

    Need More Leg Room

    Seems like a foolish request??? Making a request on this 4Runner forum to see if people are having the same problem and if there are any solutions is foolish and trying to "have it all"??? Are you kidding me???

    Need More Leg Room

    The problem with these doors is that (depending on how you position your leg) your leg hits and rubs against the right angle edge on the door panel which gets very annoying and begins to hurt over time. My 93 Corsica that I commute back and forth to work in has more leg room that the 4Runner...

    Need More Leg Room

    I'm 5' 10" and driving a 2000 Limited. While driving, my left leg leans against the part fo the door panel that the power windows/doorlocks is mounted in. It sticks out about 2 inches, then transitions at a right angle to the flat surface where the buttons are located. It is that right angle...

    Most Miles on 1 Tank of gas?

    Anyone aware of an aftermarket tank that is a few gallons larger than the 18 gallon OEM tank? Perhaps around 22 gallons and mounting is fairly straight forward?

    Most Miles on 1 Tank of gas?

    I have 2000 4Runner Limited 4.3L, and get around 270 miles tank. When filling up the fuel pumps clicks off real early on the 4Runners. I can usually squeek in another 3 gallons, but I have to nurse it in REAL SLOW otherwise the pump keeps shutting off. Anyone know of a mod to the 4Runners...

    Brakes Pulsating After Cutting Rotors

    I think they took off enough material since the entire rotor surfaces (both sides) where cleanly cut. Assuming the rotor was held square in the lathe, it should be good. A friend of mine who is a mechanic at a Toyota, GM, etc dealer (he works on the GM side) has a dial indicator kit that...

    Brakes Pulsating After Cutting Rotors

    My brakes have been pulsating for awhile on my 2000 4Runner Limited. I pulled the rotors off this morning and took them to NAPA and had them cut. I put the brakes back together and took the car for a test drive AND THE BRAKES ARE STILL PULSATING!?!? Any help would be appreciated!
