HAHAHAHAHA !! So true :awais: Thanks for the input guys ... I'll try to look for the thicker ones ... For the spark plugs, why are iridium or platinum ones useless ? I mean, they sure might help on the gas/mileage ?? Is it the same for a distributor cap and rotor ? Should I choose OEM ones...

A friend and I are having a debate on this ... He buys nothing but Toyota. I want to do the same but on some things ... I don't think it's worth it. Dealer wants 100$ for the wires only :awais: I keep on telling my friend there might be another brand to use that might be equal or better to...

Forgot to update on this one. Adding some brake fluid worked. I know my rear cylinder is leaking so it might not help on the fluid level. Thanks y'all !!!!!!!!!!

I am talking about 84-89 4Runner .... convertible ones (just to make sure we are talking about the same thing ;): )

I've seen some pics of 1st gen 4Runners with a chopped/hacked hardtop. Well, I've seen more than one type of chop. Some in the slant-back style, others without the middle windows, others

All my wires are connected (I've checked and double-checked). I have power in the plug that goes in the radio. I have 12 Volts which I checked with my multimeter. However, I noticed that I have 12 Volts between the C & G plugs (+12 Volt Ignition Wire & Ground) BUT I don't have anything between...

I checked them too but I'm not sure about the quality of a "jobber" panel ... especially when it comes in 3 pieces :( Any FHE ?? Thanks

So my passenger quarter panel is all rusted :bash: I need to change it. I know about toyotafiberglass.com, contacted the guy and shipping is :awais: I called Caquest, Napa, Cross Canada and they don't have crap. Any advice ? Thanks

Yeah, that's what I was starting to tell myself. I thought it was a bolt-on bar on a specific truck but ... gnah ... I'll just go ahead and fab up some brackets :cool:

So I thought this would fit my 89 4Runner but it looks like I'll have to make some brackets .... Question is ; what truck does it fit ? Anyone can tell ?

Adding oil worked !!! Yey ... thanks !!

so I just added oil and the brake light is gone ... I haven't had the chance to check for the cruise yet but ... chould it work now ? Thanks !!!

I'll check that but where exactly is that switch ?
