Nice runner I see you're taking the lifted approach. Welcome to the boards.:biggrin2:

I don't know how much mileage you have, but eventually the o2 sensor starts "losing its slack" so to speak, and every time the sensor checks things it eventually looses proficiency. Probably best off swaping it out if you have 100k or more miles on it. I think mine went at around 120k or less...

**** man!..:spider: Kinda sucks I didn't ring in earlier. Was this a the stealership where you bought the part? You should return it and save major dough.

Try RockAuto.com for o2 sensors, I just bought a denso one yesterday. $85 plus 2 day shipping:jump:

I'm right there with you man. I cant seem to find any kits for the runner. I'm thinking I may have to go custom with it. A nice 1" or 2" drop is perfect for my needs, I may slam it depends on tire rub and what not.:frog:

Nelson, I'm pretty sure your transmission problem has to do with fluid levels or your filter. I haven't done a tranny filter swap, but if you look underneath your rig you should see to some bolts on the transmission pan. Remove trans oil, then unbolt those bolts and viola!

Right there with ya!:boink:

Just a couple weeks ago I started hearing the sound you're describing, kkinda like a tapping sound coming from passenger seat. Sound is very faint only if I turn down radio i can hear the dreadful tapping..... could it be a loose bolt?? idk, got 130k miles:boxer:

Not green but should I paint it Imperial green jade

Physically go under and check the engine bay and underbody. Back in the day I left a wrench in my engine bay and it was rattling like crazy for a couple weeks till I found it lol.:moon:

As a 2WD owner I am not shocked that it got through that, only thing i would be concerned with is the terrarin. Back in 1999 about a year after my parents bought the 4runner (I was 7 lol) there was a huge flood in ft.lauderdale and i was about the height of the hood, my whole family was in the...

Does anyone know any place in south florida that has decent 3rd gen 4runners that I can pull parts from?

I have been having the same problems as well. the vehicle is older now and more suspected to to have idle or start up issues. Since this problem I have, like many members clean MAF, throttle body, used seafoam through my manifold, changed battery, spark plugs, and new fuel filter. All of these...

I have been wanting my 2WD to have somewhat 4WD capabilities for the longest time. I too don't want to get another runner because of the attachment I have with this one, plus its brown. I am too in the same situation as OP, I do city driving 99% of the time. I have only been off roading for...

I'd say go custom and forget the kit all together. That includes all kits, they're a waste of money and time. If you're gonna install forced induction do it with quality parts that are known to gain power not some diecast metal turbo from ebay. I was thinking about doing this to the "UPS...
