    3rd Gen BLACKED OUT. 3" suspect lift, 285/70 terra grapplers, Memphis, $8500

    If by "serviced religiously" you mean the oil was changed, that's great and all, but the water pump is kind of an important component, usually changed with the timing belt. You're going to get questions about this until you can back up the "serviced religiously" comment and provide specifics.

    I couldn't resist....

    This was almost in contention for best first post ever. But, since it was your second post, it was terrible. :jk:

    Shifting from 3rd to 4th - Special thanks to this forum

    123k, believe it or not. It was spotless, inside, outside, and underneath. And yes, I crawled under it at CarMax. Because of the miles, I researched the crap out of it. 1 owner, serviced exclusively at a Toyota dealer in KC where it lived since original purchase, timing belt/water pump done...

    Shifting from 3rd to 4th - Special thanks to this forum

    I didn't have them appraise it, but I would suspect somewhere around $3500. I knew, though, that if I traded it, it would go to auction and end up on some random used car lot, and that made me sad. I want to find someone who can appreciate it and take care of it.

    Shifting from 3rd to 4th - Special thanks to this forum

    It is with mixed emotions that I report to the group that I have made the move from 3rd generation to 4th generation, and have decided to sell my 2000 SR5 that I have owned since new. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/sale-vehicles/149696-sale-2000-4runner-sr5-2wd-3-4l-218-000-miles-%245349.html...

    Question about 199mm upgrade at Advance Auto

    Take a look here: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/112775-199mm-tundra-brake-parts.html What I used is in post #2. The Akebono pads and Brembo rotors have been awesome. The calipers have performed great, but the surface rust is the only drawback (see post #10).

    Timing belt woes

    This thread is epic. Every one of us who has done the TB/WP job is thinking, "Damn, that could have been me..." and we all want to see you figure it out. You've got lots of moral support for what it's worth.

    Trialer plug monting options for 97 4runnner

    I also have a Curt receiver. I installed the harness behind the panel in the driver side cargo area, near the tail light. Then I ran the line with the 4-pin connector under the trim piece that holds the carpet down (where the hatch meets), under the panel in the passenger side cargo area, and...

    Tapping my Brake Controller for Tailgaiters Causes Power Loss

    3rd Gen owner here, forgive the momentary intrusion. As another option that also adds some functionality for other situations, what about something like this? http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/110216-rear-lights-also-how-not-short-out-your-whole-truck.html Obviously with the 5th Gen...

    spark plug gap way off!?

    Plugs are cheap. Better to find out now than after they're installed and you're misfiring all over the place. Good luck.
