just pry up gently on the switch assembly, no need to remove the door card.

^^^^^i like the picture. super backdrop.^^^^^ a few "job supervision" photos:

for '87 #2, after doing the engine rebuild, i had noticed some coolant loss happening (although not actually loss). after extended interstate driving, the expansion reservoir would be overfull, and as the engine (and coolant) cooled, the expanded coolant would not return to the radiator. thus...

took #2 again on a round trip from NH to MI. visited the inlaws in southern MI, and then went to north central MI to the camp. drove great, mostly kept it to 65 or less, even in northern MI where the limit is 75. 2,040 miles, left last thursday, got home today (6 days). averaged a tic over...

nice scores, especially the 2-door. i’ve always liked the 2-door versions. looks to be in great condition for the price you paid. around here, the nitwits think their trashed, rusted, beat junker is worth $6k minimum.

#2 does have complete hardtop trim and a good (not perfect) headliner...

saw that one ^^^ on c-list a week or so ago. looked to be solid, albeit with the blown headgasket. are you positive the seats were swapped out? my '87 #1 sr5 had the same seats (which i have since swapped out for the sport seats). check the matching rear seat fabric. i wouldn't be surprised...

some light wheeling on a local road (from 2020): 87 4runner light 4wheeling - YouTube

three morons asking “is this for sale?” in a nearly seven year old thread, where the OP hasn’t posted on the forum anywhere other than in this thread.

when swapping on the 32x11.5 wheels/tires, noticed that the passenger side outer tie rod end was loose (failing, the nut was still tight). ordered a replacement, and installed it the other day. having the pitman arm/tie rod puller makes it a breeze. took care of the slight wobble, which...

taking in a little fall foliage on another day

my kind of "pavement" looking over a clearing for a job we did last november

took a little drive on the back roads near home
