99 fuel door

will a door from any other vehicle like tacoma fit? i see some on ebay that seem really overpriced so i am trying craigslist and salvage yards but would like to know if i can look at other vehicles.

Thanks

I don't believe so, any year 3rd gen should fit, but not tacomas or any other vehicles. What are you looking for off of it? I recently replaced mine which is in good shape apart from a broken spring so it doesn't pop open anymore.

Spring is a two-minute, $4 fix (p/n 77360-35010). The door is indeed only for 3G 4Runners:

Part 77350-35030 (LID ASSY, FUEL FILLER OPENING) was found on the following models:

Ha, I didn't think the dealer would be selling the spring seperate from the door itself or I probably would've just bought a new one.

the whole door popped off from a repair by the previous owner. looks like he used jb weld or something. i need the whole door and hinge together.

found a craigslist possibility but tough to find the right color.

Underfire you can use any small spring to fix the door. I threaded one into a hole on the door and it has been working fine for 4 years now. OP if you cannot find one that is the right color see if you can pull a hinge off another one and use the original door. If it was put together, it will come apart.

I went the craigslist route. still think $50 is a bit steep but seems to be the going rate and the paint matches!

mine was repaired where the L-shaped pin attaches to the door. i couldnt see a non-ghetto way of fixing it. The good news now is that it actually latches and the release works. super easy fix but was feeling a little pissy about the money..haaha

thanks all
