you can take your VIN, go to toyota's owner website: Toyota Owners Online | Official Toyota Owners Website then you can literally see anything that's been done at a toyota dealership that uses their service. pretty cool. i found out that mine (2000 125k) has had new radiator, tranny flush...

On 410's recomendation, i also went with catco, and have had no issues as well.

sorry for the non--update! yeah, he emailed me pics. rims looked in pretty good shape. i decided to pass on them though looking at the above posted pics of tundra rims mounted, and i'm going to just paint the ones i got flat black and get new tires instead.

he hasn't responded yet. i'm interested to see what kind of shape they are in for 150$

I'm pretty sure these will fit my 2000 runner w/ 16's, but this just seems like too good a deal to be true: 4-Toyota tundra 16" 6 lug aluminum wheels it's about 5 miles from me, i'm emailing him for pics. these will fit right?

i didn't do my bumpstops... i wonder how hard they'd be to unscrew on my truck since everything else is pretty must rust-fused.

the greasables are from energy suspension. mine are from wheelers and not fitted with zerks. to grease mine you have to take them off. I wouldve gone with the greasables but never got around to measuring diameter of sway bar so I went with the kit from wheelers.

Just put on my sway bar bushings... damn. what a pita! They had never been changed, and I can't tell by the pic, but I think it's bad! :) I had to get new brackets/bolts/nuts for them b/c I literally had to saw off the old ones with a sawzall. My sway bar was a little rusted under the old...

Let me add a +1 to this. On top of the engine, you will see a "DIAG" plug. Run that down, and you'll see a ground bolt screwed into the engine block. IF this is loose, it will mess up your driving. I paid toyota 228.86$ to diagnose a stalling 2000 4runner, and all it was was this grounding...

Update: I removed PCV valve. It was completely gunked up, and the little ball no longer worked in it to make it a one way valve. It was just open. Fixed that issue, and tightened up the loose ground on the engine itself. Drove about 50+ miles. Stop and go. No issues whatsoever. Idles...

I am checking all the hoses for vacuum leaks now. Noticed on the "DIAG" port on the drivers side of the engine, there was a bolt ground running from the diag port to the engine that was wayyyy loose. I tightened it up. My PCV valve looks like it's leaking too. Going to go ahead and replace...

The relay that is clicking on and off is the Circuit opening Relay: http://www.ncttora.com/fsm/1996/SIL/techinfo.toyota.com/ileaf/02toyrm/02toypdf/02rmsour/2002/024runne/sf5vzfe/cor/comp.pdf I did NOT change the ECU. I dont' think that's the issue. I'm tending towards something with this...

Yessir. I've changed both O2 sensors, the cat, and the muffler. Codes still on. Toyota only focused on those issues, and gave me the print out w/ freeze frame data and said all is well, and they are not sure why those codes are on. And it's a non-cali, so there is no a/f. i'm about to...

small update: I took the dash apart. I checked the ecm, making sure everything is plugged up tight, took the combination meter (cluster gauge) apart (my D light is out, but it comes on intermittently, does anyone know if this would contribute? seems like there may be a short in the unit?) I...

picked it up from toyota. stalling as soon as i slow down or come to a stop.
