Thats what I gather thru further research. Seems as though the 90k service runs about $1,000 after calling 3 Japanese auto places. The exhaust manifold is gonna depend on how bad it is but one place said $1,400 max.

Alright so I've had 4 great years with my 4Runner and I still love the truck but need a bigger rig to pull my boat. The boat is about 6,500 pounds plus a 1,500 pound trailer so the 4runner isnt quit beefy enough. Anyway I have a guy that wants to buy it but also wanted to have Toyota of...

I ordered the Daystar 2.5" front 1.5" back leveling kit from 4 Wheel Parts and got it in the mail today but the package for the rear said FJ Cruiser Rear Budget Boost. After calling the service department it turns out there website is screwed up and matches the wrong part up when you enter the...

Great thread guys, I am also looking to replace my stock tires and still cannot decide what would be the best tire for me. I live in Seattle so I need a tire that can handle lots of rainy and wet conditions but I will also be in snowy conditions almost every weekend. I do some off-roading...

Does anyone know the Curb Weight of a V8 4runner?

Thanks for the weight breakdown Maine Runner I think I am going to need my V8 and 4wd when I pull my new project out of the water this weekend. The trailer just weighed in at 1,200 lbs and the manual for the boat says its appox. 4,000lbs. 5,200 will be the most I have towed behind the 4runner...

I have a V8 4wd and would not want to be towing a boat bigger than 15ft with a V6 2wd. I towed this 19ft whaler (not sure on the weight) this summer a couple of times and did not have extra power to spare. I have never towed with a V6 so i am not sure what the torque is like. Pulling this out...

I just had the Kenwood DNX8120 installed in my ride and I can play movies when I am driving as long as the e-brake is on. I figured out if I just put the e-brake on to the first click the movie will play and at one click the e-brake isnt actually doing anything. I have also read that if you...

The same thing happens on my 06 V8 when I make sharp right turns and my previous 4runner (1993) did it as well. It only happens when I crank the wheel all the way so I just don

I would be interested in buying your old cornfed setup if possible. How long have you had the 2/1 on there?

I will be heading to Sandpoint, ID so i wont be able to make it but have fun. I will be driving across Washington in a Prius loving the gas milage but wishing i was in my 4runner. I am going to be out of town until mid July and will be down to do something then.

I am just about to pull the trigger buying the Kenwood 8120. I found it at sbhcorp.com for $1,049. Its the best deal I have found so far. - Has anyone bought electronics from them before? I called the 1-800 number and it seemed legit the lady said she had worked there 15 years. -Does...

I am out for this weekend. Going up to my place in the San Juans Islands. But definitely in for another weekend soon. Sorry guys

Fairchild AFB is in Spokane, WA. I live in Seattle which is about 4 hours away. Spokane has a dryer climate than Seattle since it is on the east side of the Cascade Mountain Range. In Spokane you will get very cold temperatures during the winter and hot temps during the summer. but not...

Weekends would be the only time I could make it. How about this Saturday?
