    FS: 1996 3RD GEN 4Runner 4x4 | $6999 | Chicago, IL

    I'm selling my 96 4Runner SR5, asking $6999, no trades. Built it in SoCal to be capable and reliable overlanding, trail riding, and general offroading. Selling because I work from home and I don't need two cars. There is zero rust on this frame, it was in CA until 2022. Now I'm south of...

    check off list for F150 tank swap

    I have the F150 tank from Spectra in my 4runner. I bought a different calibration device but ended up not using it, the calibration process was such a massive PITA. In the end, I hooked the Ford sender up to the original gauge. Most of the time the needle is at E for the Extra tank, when it gets...

    What is my 4runner worth?

    Thanks guys. I wanted to know because I'm moving from CA to Indiana in a few weeks, and I'm taking my other car there and leaving the 4runner for now. People keep asking whether I am going to sell the car even though I'm not getting any of my money back on the mods, or own a car 2000 miles away...

    Has anyone seen these or used them? I'm trying to find some lights for seeing around corners when wheeling at night. Spindle Light Pod Brackets: 3rd Gen 4Runner and 1st Gen Tacoma – Snowbound Customs

    TEQ Grille Badges?

    I live in Loma Linda near the 10/215 interchange, you could meet me here. Or you could meet me at my dad's house in Yucaipa, it's right down the hill from Forest Falls. He has a 99 4runner and I have a 96 4runner, what year of 4runner do you need to test fit to?

    Fuel Tank Relocation (and new Rear Bumper design)

    That's exactly my problem. The gas cap doesn't vent nicely like I thought it would either. Now I'm going to plumb it into the same vent as my front tank and hope it doesn't trip any CELs. If I wasn't worried about passing CA smog I might buy one of these Amazon.com: Dorman 924-284 Front Axle...

    Fuel Tank Relocation (and new Rear Bumper design)

    There are a bunch of different problems with the way that I plumbed in the tank, I dropped it out to do it right. The Ford vent doesn't vent the tank fast enough to fill the tank with gas, gas keeps building up in the filler and runs back out onto the ground. Plumbing the Ford vent to the...

    Fuel Tank Relocation (and new Rear Bumper design)

    I just dropped my tank out so I might be able to take some pictures once I get home. I had a FN724 Filler Neck and a Gates 24712 2" Fuel hose into the wheel well, the fuel hose needed to be trimmed quite a bit. I'm not sure if this is the best solution, gas leaks out of the cap when the 4runner...

    Fuel Tank Relocation (and new Rear Bumper design)

    Yes, I tried going wot up to 75ish mph on the Ford pump and the engine just starves fuel and shuts off. I never looked for any specs on the Ford fuel pump, I guess I should have done that first... There might be an aftermarket Ford pump sold by someone that fits in the tank that can handle the...

    rear diff parts list and locations

    Make sure you have the right gear ratio in the front diff too. My understanding is that the standard models had a 4:10 ratio, but the models with elockers were 4:30, so you would need to regear the front diff or swap the diff from the donor as well. Oh, and the axle housing is different from...

    Kirks build thread

    Well you're right, the Ford pump can't keep up with wot at 4k rpms on my rig either. Good thing I found out now instead of while trying to pass someone on highway 38...
