Bump to the top. If anyone is interested, make me a reasonable offer. Ask questions. I am a responsible adult who has taken great pride and care of this truck mechanically and had the upgrades done right. You will not be disappointed. I have to add that the Marlin T-Case is amazing and...

Yes. 4spd auto. I'm getting between 13 and 15MPGs with all the mods.

I also have the factory roof rack, factory radio with iPod interface, a spare set of American Racing Fuel wheels (with some rock rash), and all the removed electronic switches. Thank for looking. Please PM me with any questions, concerns, etc. --Steve

Just added a link to the photos. Thought that was already there. Sorry.

Up for sale is my 2004 Toyota 4Runner SR5 with V6 and 4WD. I have been the sole owner of this vehicle and bought it new in 2004. It currently has 121,000 miles and a clean title. I have taken great care of this truck and have never abused it. All maintenance including oil changes have been...

Fortunately, I spent quite a bit of time on the IH8MUD forums specifically under LC100 and LX470 threads. These threads outlined known issues and things to watch out for and be concerned about for each year. None of the items you mentioned seem to be on "watch out" list excluding the automatic...

One thing you loose that some consider small is the Hi-Lo shifter. This is infamous with SUV's that have gone soft. Take it from a 4th Gen 4Runner owner who ripped out the stock transfer case and put in a twin stick. At least the 5th Gen Trail Edition 4Runner has reincorporated it back into...

Being a 4Runner and LX470 owner, I would choose the LC100 or LX470 over the 4Runner in an instant if it was only DD. The truck drives far better, is built much stronger, has more room and if you ever want to built it up, there are more options than you have with the 4Runner. Just check out...

For any of you people in the New England Area.. If you're not a member you can join using the registration form. This is a great event and always has a very large turnout. It's also a great club with a great group of people...

They were taken on numerous Class 6 trails throughout New Hampshire. I've been to Rausch once, Last Easter weekend. Had a great time. Spent most of the time on the Blue trails with a few Blacks.

Some pictures from the last few years..

Their holding up very well. I've been on a good number of moderate rocky trails now and they've take a few hits, but look great. I do need to get under there this spring and touch up the scapes to minimize rust. If you're going to buy skids, BudBuilts are they way to go.

Simple OME suspension with HD springs up front.

I have three kids and use the 3rd row all the time. My kids are 2, 4 and 6. I actually put the 2-year old and 5-point harness seat in the second row. I leave the large section of 60/40 split second row folded forward, leaving easy in and out access to the 3rd row. My 6 year old uses a...

I used an FJC mount notched into my rear bumper. Works great.
