Disregard! Got the radiator out and noticed the frame is bent!!! Oh well...to the junkyard!

My DW just had an accident and pretty much totaled the front of our '99 runner. I'm pretty sure we can fix it but wondering what years would be the same for the front fenders and hood, grille and bumper? Would the p/u be the same also? BTW, she's fine and the bags didn't even deploy. Thanks.

Revenge, Interesting article. Some helpful info, but, doesn't say just how to get those POS panel plugs off! I did get one off, then broke 2 more. Was able to get the power wires disconnected which is really all I wanted to do at this time until I can get a price on a new antenna. Looks though...

Thanks for the response and info. Looks like I'll be pulling that fender panel to access it. Just wondered if there may have been a relay or something under the hood to make it a bit quicker. As for those clips...from the fender well they are about 1/2" square with a small hole in the center...

The cable or plastic in the spool broke yesterday and man! what a racket it makes now. Could someone possibly point me to a possible connection that I could disconnect for the time being, until I can get it repaired? Perhaps a fuse for just the antenna? Can iy be repaired or do you have to...

Thanks p nut. Always appreciate 'Thanks'. Let's me know people care. And if I'd opened my eyes before...I woulda seen at the bottom of a post.......PROFILE. Duhhh! Still gettin' used to this forums format.

Speaking of OEM...the ONLY brake work done on my Runner, other than just inspections, was at about 5K on the car we came up with warped rotors! Replaced under wty.

Uhhh, no, didn't measure them...hell, haven't even pulled the wheels yet. Just thought it would make for a quicker job having everything right on the spot for the job rather than pulling the rotors/drums then running 20 miles to the Zone for turning. What does 'Yota get for pads, opposed to others?

Thanks Guys, shouldn't be a problem then, think I'll give it a shot. p nut...Guess you can't click on someones profile? Definately from the 60's...50's...

Thanks for the replys, Guys. Ron...Yeah, was just doing a visual. Will go back with a voltmeter. Yes, rear wiper works as well as the window. No body damage. Sleep? What's that??? Charlee...I did pop that protector open and didn't see anything 'cept taped up wires. PIA getting that lil...

Just wanting to pick everyone's brains on any 'how-to's', 'tips', or 'advice' on doing a brake-job myself on our Runner. I've done numerous brake jobs on Chevys in the past but never on anything Oriental. Wondering about anything 'different', other than metric. I plan on new rotors and drums as...

quit working awhile back, I've looked for a blown fuse and didn't find any. Now noticing the 3rd brake lite keeps blowing. Tried to look in the harness between the body and hatch for a grounding problem to no avail. FYI, rear window works fine. Any ideas??

190,000 and counting. Wife had to drive 80 miles RT to work, now retired so the miles are slowing down.

Hi all, Just signed up here and hoping this place will be as informative, helpful and fun as some of the forums I'm on. We have a '99 SR5 that I have a few issues with I'll be posting up very shortly. Just wanted to check in and say Hi first.
