I'm new and in need of a compass...

[SasquatchRevenge]

Hi everyone. I recently picked up a 95 with a 3vze and a 5 speed for an awesome deal. Like all of you, my immediate thoughts went to "what can I mod" and "what accessories do I need". My most basic/immediate needs are a new front bumper, grille, hood, and passenger side headlight. The guy I bought it from hit another car and destroyed those parts. Luckily no further damage occurred. SO my question to all of you is where is the best place to find these items and other 4runner parts/accessories? I'm looking for stock/oem parts...FOR NOW. A fab bumper is in my future plans, but it's not in my budget at the moment. Any website recommendations? Thanks

Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market has inventory for several local wrecking yards, but you need enough stuff that it might be worth watching the KSL classifieds for a second gen with a blown motor and grab it for a parts truck.

Also, what parts interchange with the 4runner? I bought a bumper from a guy on KSL, it was from a 94 pick up. Doesn't fit. I thought the 89-95 pickups/4runners had the same bumpers....guess not.

The rear bumpers are different, but all the front end parts should swap over?

That's what I thought. It's a slightly different shape on top, and the new bumper doesn't have enough room for the headlights. it's about 1" wider than my old one. I'm thinking I can trim it down with a grinder, it doesn't need to be perfect (it's only temporary)
