Brake pad and shim kit part #'s Great write-up and it's MUCH appreciated! :thumb: Does anyone know what the correct part #'s are for the more robust brake pads and shim kit that fit the 13WG calipers? Are they the same as the ones that fit the 13WL? I see the part # for the 13WL is Toyota Part...

Thanks for the help, guys. I'll check these things this weekend!

Can anyone direct me to a thread that covers this? The transfer case is working and engaging, but the hubs will not engage. I have a '97 SR5 3.4. Everything worked fine until I had the top end of my engine rebuilt last year. When asked about it without the vehicle there, a mechanic at another...

Thanks for all the advice. I'll start with the EFI fuse first and see if that works.

Can anyone direct me to a thread with instructions on how to reset the ECM? I've searched, but can't find anything. Recently did major maintenance on my '97 3rd gen V6 and I'm still having sluggish acceleration. Thinking an ECM reset might need to be done now. Thanks!

I agree. My truck is the same shade of green. It's not stock, but I still wouldn't put a really dark wheel on it unless I was only using that wheel for offloading. I think green especially looks good with either gun metal or hyper silver, or even a machined silver. I've been researching new...

No doubt. Our modern day technology can be infuriating sometimes. Especially these stupid smart phones! (I think that's an oxymoron. :doh:)

I'm on a hunt for new wheels for my 3rd generation, too. If you get no responses here, I've seen several nice sets of those on eBay at reasonable prices. Current auctions, as I'm looking every day right now. Several auctions for individual wheels, as well.

Looks like nothing showed up.

Yeah, precious people tend to drive badly! Ha ha! JK! Glad you solved it! Has anybody used these spacers: 4 Toyota Tacoma 4Runner Tundra FJ Cruiser Wheel Spacers 1 25" 6x5 5 Hub Centric | eBay These guys have 100% positive feedback and great comments on their spacers. Seems that's all they do...

Wow! Great looking wheel! Those are bringing nearly $500 to $600 a set without tires on eBay, so yes you got a deal!

I'm thinking from what I've read this one needs a 1.25" spacer, right? I'm not so sure I like the looks of this anymore, though. Looks great on a Tacoma, but the more pictures of 4Runners I see with them the less I like this wheel for that application. I wouldn't have to buy new tires, though...

What about these two wheels? Is 265-70-17 a decent size tire that's not huge but still has a somewhat large look to it?

Do you have a lift? Depending on the wheels you have you might need wheel spacers installed. I haven't installed the wheels yet. I bought the 16" Tacoma wheels, but I'm not sure I want to use them now. Looking at a set of 17" FJ wheels in the morning. He wants $400 for wheels alone, so you got...

17" tire sizes Hello, I'm a newb to this forum, but not a newb to 4Runners, as I've had my '97 since 2001 and have had it lifted almost as long. Also had a lifted '85 years ago and a Toyota 4WD pickup years ago, before they were called Tacomas. On to the questions. (I suppose I might be being a...
