Thanks. My seats are kinda trashed so I figured if the swap was easy it would be something I could knock out before lunch on a saturday. I'm in rural Indiana, and know of exactly 1 LC in my town, so I can't imagine the demand would be too high, but that's a good fallback.

Well that is certainly good logic....Kinda wish I'd thought of that while I was sitting there for an hour measuring the seat with my ass

Dang, I didn't drive my 4 runner to the yard so I couldn't measure or double check the bolt up locations. I don't have time to get back out today, so I figured someone on here may know. I asked the fella at the yard to keep that vehicle off the crush list for another week or so for me if...

Was at the boneyard today getting some stuff for my silverado, and noticed a Freshly totaled LX450 as I was walking around. The inside of it is mint...like mint mint, and I'm curious if I can directly swap the front buckets and the back seat into my 97 limited. Guy at the yard told me I could...

Thank you. I'm actually not too worried as I live in a super rural area and don't really travel "to tha city" too often. It would be really nice to have the piece of mind just because though. I'm gonna go poke around the yard and pray I can find a key under a floormat or something, lol.

Yup, I bought one of the $19 fobs from ebay (pictured). I never had the original fob from my 1997 Limited, but it look like pictures I've seen. I have been able to get it to program, to "chirp" and the lights have cycled once. After I pull the key from the ignition and shut the door the locks...

Done and done. I spent like 2 full weeks hunting this done in my last build and ended up replacing everything. Thanks!

lol, thanks guys. Anything I can do to get it to fire off the bat? Or should i just chalk it up and keep hunting down what I want in a lift?

Hello all, I've been a 3rd gen owner for a week now and I can't find a fault with the truck I bought beyond a long crank. I've read it's not uncommon at all, but it drives me nuts that it turns over 7 or 8 times (1.5-2.0 seconds) before it fires. It seems to be SLIGHTLY faster when it's...

Thanks everyone. I ended up making the plunge and bought the first one. After I showed up he was more willing to deal, and I ended up with it for $3000 It ran great, and everything worked - Took it home (73 miles) and it was smoooth sailing. The drivers seat is a little more beat up than...

This is the most informative post I've read on 4 runners. Thanks man...very very good. I know that not living in arizona I'm gonna have to deal with rust....that's why i have a lift, sandblasting setup, and a 220 mig...I would just prefer to use them as little as possible. the only Toyotas...

Appreciate it. I'm not exactly strapped, but I posted my Cherokee for sale a week or so ago and much to my surprise it sold almost instantly at my asking price, so I'm currently without a family hauler (unless the rusty old doge I use to move stuff around the property in summer counts). Also...

Thanks, Depends on what's a little more, maint records, miles etc.... He told me I could have at it with a screwdriver, and I fully intend to. If there are frame holes that one is obviously out. After years of ancient, salt ridden wranglers, I'm pretty confident in my ability to judge the...

Excellent. The 2001 is also like an hour further away than the other 2, which shouldn't really factor in when buying a new vehicle...but it does for me at least a little.
