    How do you classify your 4Runner?

    Thanks for that explanation! I haven't discovered the bolts for the body yet... Too much mud in the way

    How do you classify your 4Runner?

    Truck. My friend has a toyota dyna which is an actual lift-cab tray on the back 'truck', and we constantly debate wether my 4R is a truck or not... when his dyna was stuck in a field and my 4R was the only thing that could snatch it out, it earnt the title of 'truck' :D Could someone explain...

    Alternator connections 3Y YN60

    Cheers for a response! I have, but the ones i have seen have some sort of capacitor attached to one. The alternator has been reco'd but the auto elec only worked with what I gave him and he's never seen the car.. After reading some more I found some info on yotatech regarding mid 80's 4runners...

    Alternator connections 3Y YN60

    Hey guys. The PO of my truck has hacked wiring up and caused all sorts of problems and headaches for me. On the back of my alternator there are two stud connections, both marked 'B'. Positive connector is attached to one. Just wondering if hooking it up to the other would be a bad move? I have...

    G'day from Australia!

    Nope she's the old 3Y. I'm inspecting all components and will replace or recondition what needs doing/is feasible. I'll give the old donk a major service and do timing chain but nothing further than that. It's slow but still torquey enough for now. If she dies or simply can't push me along fast...

    '84 YN60 3Y - charging issue

    Hi guys. I have an 84 4runner YN60, with a 3Y and 5spd manual. Ever since I've had it, theres been a charging issue. Charge light is on and has been for ever. Alternator has been reco'd. External voltage regulator has been replaced with a non-gen item. Fuses checked and I've discovered a...

    G'day from Australia!

    Hi everyone. About 12 months ago I was in desperate need of a bush vehicle. It had to be cheap, it had to be carburetted because I can make sense of it, and I wanted minimal electronic gear in it so I had a bare and reliable base to modify. Completely new to 4wd ownership, I was dreaming of...

    T4rghost's '86 4Runner build

    Nice truck/s bro! Pretty sure my '84 was that same colour at birth. I think she's had more than a few colour changes before I got to her Sent from my SM-N915G using Tapatalk

    DOT 3 Brake Fluid

    I'm pretty sure you can use DOT4 where DOT3 is recommended, but not the other way around Sent from my SM-N915G using Tapatalk

    Quick and EASY 2nd Gen 4Runner Rear Window Lock Buttton Bypass

    Please excuse my question if it's a silly one but I'm still a bit green here... what did this achieve? Are you moving the switch or replacing it with another function all together? Sent from my SM-N915G using Tapatalk

    What did you do with your classic T4R today?

    I chased wire gremlins for 8hrs straight yesterday and still ain't any closer to finding and killing the little bastards. I plan on making a post for help and I'm sure someone will help me find it in under an hour... Sent from my SM-N915G using Tapatalk

    Aussie Roll Call

    G'day. 84 4runner sr5 with the old 3Y. Has a lift, front bar, some decent tyres on the front, but none of it was my work. Purchased her for 800 in pretty crappy condition. Previous owner was a young bloke. Absolute hack. But I love her. Just cruising the forums atm before I can start my build...
