How many miles on your 4runner?

Just rolled 289k. Pulled the front end apart for the version 2 rebuild this weekend. Upgrading to JBA arms, new lower bushings, tundra brakes, new rack.

Needs a flexplate and rear axle needs a new shaft/seals but otherwise going strong.
 
Just under 247K; 2000 limited driving it since 2007; may be the last miles it gets; in shop now; frame rusted out & need to decide to spend the $ or part out/sell to salvage yard.
 
I'm at 531,000 on my '01. Purchased new with 2 miles on the odometer, and have done 100% of the maintenance/repairs/upgrades since. Bombproof reliable truck with original engine & tranny.
My daughter's twin '02 has 225,000 miles, original engine & tranny.
I spent a metric ass ton of money within the last year having some rear wheel well arch rust cut out & properly repaired, and the entire truck treated to a glass-out respray. Love it.

Congrats and kuddos to you. Any major issues over the life of ownership?
 
at 317k miles. got a neglected specimen that was used and abused. original transmission finally gave out. couple days ago. I've been showing it love since I bought it a few months ago and have been surprised to see factory original parts still on it. for example coil packs, Shocks coils ball joints pcv valve and more were all from factory. wouldn't be surprised if tranny gave out because it had original fluid most it's life.

How can one not appreciate this. 531K and all from the 1st owner. Incredible.
 
The record was 720k in CA on a manual a few years ago. I am not sure if it's still around or not.. :)

Thank you! No, no major issues ever. The one & only time it failed to get me home was when the original fuel pump died about 20 miles from home. That was at 400,000 miles. After a flatbed ride home, I dropped the tank that night.
Everything else has been routine maintenance as well as replacing things when I feel they are starting to wear. Pretty much 100% Toyota parts always.

I sure hope that number keeps climbing. :)

That rig has seen more love than most cars ever will. I am a big fan of their winch set up and the lights up front.

Longtime friends know what this silly thing means to me. It's a part of our family and will never get sold. It may get another '01-'02 to keep it company one day.

113K on my 2000 Limited 2wd!

Looking for a 98-00 4x4 with a rear locker and low-ish miles if anyone knows of someone selling :-)
