Looking for advice on what to do about rust. Hopefully the pictures show up in here. I dont think the rust is too terrible, but if I keep this thing long term, I'm thinking of going the POR15 route soon. So far nothing has broken except for the brackets that hold on the running boards (just...

Definitely interested, but unfortunately cannot purchase for a few months.... hopefully the deal will be back then. Just curious, how much for shipping to Oahu?

Also to note, its a V8. Haven't seen the ABS light or check engine light come on like many other posts suggests. One other post suggests that some OBDII scanners wont pick up certain codes, may need to take it to get read by another.

Not sure if anyone else can help with this problem, but recently I had two major pieces of work done. One, I had an exhaust shop take off the manifold and weld a hairline crack in it. Two, I had an AC shop replace the condenser and evaporator and some additional lines/O-rings. Both said they...

Sounds like a decent deal. My sticker price was slightly higher than that in the pacific northwest. Same specs except it was a 2003. Just make sure to check everything under the rig for rust and look at possible deductions you can ask for. Mine test drove fine but within a week or two the...

Stationed at joint base. Yeah trying to decide in lift or not as well. The 4Runner I picked up has a lot of frame rust, had to swap our steering gear box and a few other pieces because of rust... Another subject I'm researching. Haven't found any major holes in the frame though so that's a plus

Looking at swapping my XREAS/RAS out as they have started to fail... the RAS is completely done for that matter. I was curious if someone in here could help with my decision as I've read most of the articles about this conversion and want to make sure I know what I'm getting before a big...
