my 98 had 285k when i bought it september of 11, its at 299k with original engine and trans. still runs and drkives great!

P0133 is heated oxygen sensor circuit slow response. the rear main seal on my 98 V6 has a slow leak and the buildup of oil was running down different lines and crevices and eventually led to a build up of oil on the plug harness for the up stream heated oxygen sensor. I havent had time to...

It sounds like you may have a bad wheel bearing which will cause a roaring sound. a bad bearing can generate more heat than normal which can cause the axle seal to go bad. a leaking axle seal will obviously leave gear oil in the in the drum brake area leading to brake shoe saturation.

it sounds like the drive shaft needs to be removed and the splines on the slipyoke need to be cleaned and lubricated. Not on mine, but ive worked on several tacomas and 4runners that would do that because the splines on the yoke become dirty/dry causing the yoke to temporarily bind and then...

heres a better night pic of the gauges

i am almost halfway tempted to paint match (same as the T4R) a stripe in the center of each spoke so their isnt as much chrome

heres a day pic of the gauges

I will take a daytime pic shortly when I go to lunch and try for a better night shot tonight. I wont be able to load them here until monday though. that is our (my wife and I) 2 yr old pride and joy. she will turn the stereo up louder than I will LOL, then grin ear to ear and look at me and...

Thankyou. It is 2wd V6. I opted for 2wd due to wanting this as a daily driver family rig. the gauges are wired in directly in place of the stock dash light rheostat

Sorry about the pictures. these were taken from my cell phone. Also, I have no clue how to downsize pictures on a computer.

I dont have much done but my 4runner is slowly coming along. so far, I have an alpine cda-9885 head unit with an alpine 6 disc changer under passenger seat, JL Audio C2-650 comps for front stage powered by a JL Audio 300/4v1 black slash amp, 2 JL Audio 10W3v3-4 subs in a sealed box (going ported...

I am trying to locate both the left and right side rear bumper mount brackets for my 98 4runner. the bumper brackets i have are are both bent, Im tired of looking at a leaning bumper. If anyone has them laying around, feel free to send me some offers including shipping.

$213 isnt too bad! the dealership I work at, we charge $189 (give or take a few dollars) and that includes (using front for example) turning the rotors, replacing the pads, and lubricating the slides and shims. if the shop quoted you $213 for front and rear, I would be leary as to whether that...

the wire that doesnt go anywhere, is that off of the sensor? 180 off would be in relation to the crank and cam. every 2 full turns the crank makes, the cams rotate once.

What will be the cost for the first 10, and are you doing each batch of 10 in 1 color or will they be painted per order?
