New shoes...temporary as I'm picking up a Gen3 for myself next week. Going to swap out those wheels with these and will go on this, the truck will go to my daughter.

I would ditch those wheels too. Daughter would probably prefer driving the 3rd generation more, but it's dad's call. :yield:

Working on chopping up the front bumper and putting in a light bar I picked up from a buddy.

Just picked up a clean gen 2 down in Tuscson. Blown head gasket of course, but the body and interior are in good shape. Gonna be a fun project.

That trailered one above looks great! I'm a new 2nd Gen owner here! Came with a ton of service records - all mechanicals are good. She just looks a little Ratchet, but that suits me fine......

What it the cure for the droopy rear end these one seem to acquire over time - springs?

TIA

95 SR5 in Arizona - Looking for Purchase Advice!

Hey Gang,

New to the forums. Posting this to get some input and advice. Found a '95 4runner 5-spd 3.0 V6 about 10 miles away from me. Appears to have only been owned in Arizona. Don't need a daily driver but want a clean slate that is good for weekend camping adventures and long trips. Will make mods soon to go play in the mud and dirt.

Private seller is asking $8000 obo. Here are the stats:
Second owner
Originally purchased in Tucson
180k 'highway' miles
New exhaust and cat
Wheels balanced
New battery
New Alt
New fan belts

Said check engine light has been coming on so his mechanic is doing complete "tune up" before he'll let me test drive it. This would be my 4th Toyota Truck or 4runner. I feel confident inspecting / test driving the car. I'll ask about the water pump, timing belt, inspect the fluids, CV boots, transfer cases, cat, etc. when I test drive it. Looks very clean in photos. (See attached from online ad. There are a few more I can post, if it helps in your response.)

If I offer $6000, is that too high in your opinion? '95 isn't the year I would prefer, but if it's as clean as it looks online and he's had it tuned up, I think it might be worth it.

Any input is appreciated. Looking forward to many more posts here!

Cheers!
Ben

^^^^ man that is clean!

The 3.0 gets a bad rap for very real reasons. Look up the head gasket issue. I just got into a 95 with the same engine and in hindsight should have looked around a little more. but I got mine cheap enough that if it ends up biting me in the ass it will be a nibble, not a huge chunk gone!

Thanks for following up. What did you pay for yours? Ballpark.....

Here’s my babe, Bella

She won’t be this stock for much longer. We’ll get rid of that booty sag as well!
