Just thought i'd join and check out the site. I'm currently in search of a 96-02 4runner 4x4 with locker. I want to build the truck for mild to moderate wheeling and make my current 2wd truck the designated mall crawler/hauler/work truck.

My problem is that I can't seem to find any clean 3rd gens in NorCal for a decent price. I'm trying to buy one with with the the major 10yr/100k mile service already done (timing belt, water pump, belts, etc)...but the only ones i can find are just too beat up...or too expensive.
I'll keep an eye out.

Just wanted to say hi. Nice site btw!


The current daily driver: 2008 Nissan Frontier SE 4x2
4"front lift + 3" rear lift on 33" BFG M/T km2's





The old ride before i got into trucks: 2003 Mustang GT + full bolt-ons

Welcome!! I used to live in Los Altos, where are you located at?

Welcome and good luck finding the right 3rd Gen!

I'm located in south bay area...not too far from los altos.
...added a couple pics of my old ride and current ride.

I think i'll just lurk around this site for a while planning out some mods for my future 4runner.
I've never owned a yota before...i love how there are so many aftermarket parts for them!

Love your truck Fo_sheezy. I was checkin out your cardomain a month or 2 ago. Murdered!
