Hi from Monterey Bay, CA

Hi all, new to the thread. Located in Monterey Bay, CA, USA. Here is a picture of my 2006 Galactic Grey 4th Gen SR5 4Runner 4WD V6 with 125k miles. Running 265/70/17 BFG KO2 tires with FN FX Pro wheels. Bilstein 5100 shocks adjusted to 1.75 lift in the front with stock coils.

Hello,

Just joined as one of my friends recommended this was a good forum site for 4Runners. Just bought mine this week. 2021 Limited. First thing I am going to do to it is remove the running boards. Then add a Two-way radio and buy a set of off-roading rims and tires that I can easily switch out when I want to take it off road. After that, I am hoping to find good ideas here. I went with the Limited mainly because I will be driving this more as daily driver than off-roading. I want some of the comfort features that my Volvo had (ie.. air conditioned seats and radar cruise control). Any way I am near the DC area but heard there are some good off-roading areas in PA.

What’s going on guys. New to the site and trying to get out as much as possible. Living in San Diego and driving a 99 4Runner on 285 75/16. I usually roll solo or with my 7yr old copilot. Some of you guys may have seen me when I got stuck out Otay Truck trail. It was my first time out on stock bald tires. I’ve learned my lesson since. Still learning and having fun.

New guy here to both Toyota and 4Runners

Hey everybody! I just bought my first Toyota and 4Runner. Long time Honda/Acura owner and enthusiast. I bought a silver '99 SR5 4WD from a friend of mine. I was astonished at how quiet and smooth it drove with the amount of miles it had. Anyway I can't wait to browse through this forum and learn everything I need to know because I have no problem saying I don't know shit about Toyota's or these trucks yet except for the common issues haha.

Hello all. 2000 4Runner SR5 “Highlander” owner for the past 2 decades and about a year ago I picked up a 2020 4Runner TRD Pro. I’ll update with pics when I get that all set up.

Just got my first 4Runner, excited to start working on it and getting advice from this community.

2006 V8 Limited, 135xxx. Bilstein 5100's, 5th gen / FJ wheels wrapped in 285/70/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, Coastal front bumper. Few other goodies. Ready to turn this thing into a beast and hopefully make it last another 200k+ miles!

My apocalypse vehicle (lol)

Just joined! Thanks for the previous help.

Just bought my friends 2003 Toyota 4Runner today after driving it for 6 months. Used this forum to help with a transmission line leak. Now fully joined to work on the truck. Still only 181000. 350K or Bust!!!

Nothing new with me. Been watching timing belt replacement videos. Maybe will try to get the truck registered tomorrow if I can sneak out of work and if Covid-19 hasn't taken all of the DMV employees.

Need to update my tool box, as I'm mostly an SAE guy.

Summit Racing tool mailer came in yesterday and I really enjoyed going through it.

OK, so I have mud flaps with white (probably reflective) "4WD" letters and the paint is about half that worn off.

Any suggestions on restorative paint and process?
