If there ever was a T4R I truly covet, it's this one.
Such a smart, clean build and I'm glad to see some of the old guard
still visiting this corner of the web!
New to the forum but it’s already been a ton of help. Picked this guy up this summer. 1997 v6 5 speed with locker and only 70k miles. Been baselining and catching up on maintenance. Last weekend I replaced the spacer lift with OME and TC UCAs. More to come.

and replies so I can finally start a build thread (at least that’s how I think it works?)![]()

Hello everyone, new member here.
Greetings from British Columbia, Canada.
First time vehicle owner... I picked up a Black 97 4runner Limited w/ rear locker about a month ago.
So far I've replaced the battery, fuel filter, lower ball joints, and steering rack bushings. Did an engine oil flush/change. Grinding away at the surface rust underneath, por 15 pre treat, por 15 paint, and fluid film.
Got a shop to do the right front wheel bearing as I was told it needed to be done after a full inspection. Beyond my abilities, space, and available tools/equipment.
Next up: power steering flush, brake bleed with bleeder screw replacement, upgrade to 99-02 headlights + wiring harness upgrade to run Hella 100/80w bulbs (this is the reason for me creating my account).
If anyone is running ANZO USA 99-02 headlights let me know! Couldn't find much feedback about them anywhere.
I attached some photos.
All the best!
