Hello everyone, Unfortunately, my beloved 4Runner has been totaled after a rear-end accident. I am posting to see if anyone wants to save this 4Runner before it is sold into insurance company oblivion. 2000 Toyota 4Runner Highlander Edition 148K miles Millennium Silver on Oak 5-speed manual...

Is there anyway to contact him not through facebook?

Im just here to say "F**K Doug Demuro" :pop2:

No need to disable the airbags. You should have a section of metal tubing installed to brace the frame where the bolts go through, then weld a plate on the end of the frame, where you cut it off. Then bolt on the bumper. The welding is relatively simple, the installation of the bumper is really...

I don't have one but I really like Addicted Offroads rear bumper design, from what I understand the quality is great and I have contacted them with questions before and they responded promptly, seems like a good company Addicted Offroad is a full service Parts, Sales, and Fabrication...

Sounds like it might be motor mounts but there also is the transmission mount. Seeing as you feel the vibration less when you are in neutral, you might also want to take a look at the condition of the transmission mount. Is your car a manual or automatic? It could also be flywheel related if you...

I think its a 2001 or 2002 because of wheels and tail lights. That is amazingly clean for that mileage! Makes me want to go outside and polish my paint!

Are there any west coast dealers that have decent prices?

mtbtim not exactly a 'tool time' but this sounds like a great idea for a video! OEM vs TBU shootout? --Also grinding the wheels sounds like a bad/dangerous idea, I have heard of people grinding the calipers but even that could potentially ruin the calipers and might be risky.

It is possible to install the ARB in a way that is reversible. If you use the Tacoma brackets, which come with the bumper, you can cut off the sides with the captive nut and weld them to the cut ends of the 4runner frame. This allows for the factory bumper brackets to be bolted back to the...

It does seem like coolant, maybe mixed with oil. Also considering the rate of how quickly its pouring out and the time that must have gone by between the other driver flagging your friend down and him starting to film, that is a ton of liquid pouring out. It sure seems like more than 6qts

That totally blows, I would take a sample of the oil to have it analyzed for excessive metal contaminants. In case the engine blows up in the near future; this could potentially provide some type of material document of any damage done by the dealers negligence. Maybe a compression test too? I...

Whats is the consensus on this? Are all these 'Rebuilt'/'Remanufactured' options just China made copies of the 13WL? I know that in Africa much of the 'OEM' Toyota parts market is just fake Chinese reproductions, is that the case with these calipers too?
