I have Icon suspension and a Marlin locker on my 2wd and it jerks when I'm im going into reverse or drive. Mine has OEM fluid and looks clean. Not sure what causes it but it drives great. Let me know if you find anything out

Im not sure, but the only thing that comes to mind is have you reset ECU or unhooked battery for any install lately?

Wow really clean. I bought a 2001 2wd with 231k in so cal for $6k last month. It had all new engine, Marlin locker and new icon suspension with wheels and tires. Given yours has more desirable features like 4wd and manual I'd price it in the $8k range give a take. Just my opinion

I cheated and bought this as a spare, but it's nice.

Thanks for the heads up. Any suggestions?

I was considering heading up the main divide road from the 74 out of elsinore on Sunday morning depending on how much rain we get. Not sure if its exciting or not, just want to get out. Let me know if anyone would like to join.

Bump for Michael and a quality product. Installed today

Yes you have to replace the whole assembly, but its pretty easy. Depo makes a replacement and I do not think they are much $. They are glass too just like OEM.

Thank you. I ordered paint from ERA Paints out of Oregon. I actually just ordered the new bumper end off eBay for like $35. I didn't want to do professionally given the cost for such a small area. The quarter panel ding was no big deal to me. Nice to have some paint on it though

Did some body repair. Used a high quality spray paint and clear coat. Turned out good enough for me.

Yeah sorry, that's what I meant. I wouldn't mind a good JDM engine. I know there are good shops out there too. But I know overall the engine I have is in good shape and the head job is about $2200 so I think I'll stick with the original.

Well it is the heads/ head gasket. Cylinder 5/6 are both bad. Should have it back in a week. It's my wife's main transportation so I had to get it in to another local shop that could work on it quick. Yotamasters had a few days wait.

I should have a diagnosis today that will verify

Thanks for your warning on the JDM company and both of your input. Ill see what Yotamasters says today and go from there. Thanks.

From what I've searched here on the forum, it looks like I have a head gasket going or blown on my wife's 4Runner. It has around 205k and is a 3.4l. It had been idling rough on start up, cold or warm, but never threw a code except running lean. I cleaned the Maf and that went away. Well...
