Besides the usual oil changes what other maintenance should be done on the 4runner to keep her strong? I change the oil every 3000 +/- miles with Mobil 1 High Milage Synthetic and I just replaced the air filter. Any other suggestions? It has 198,000 miles on it. Thanks all

Don't you have the maintenance schedule that comes with the vehicle from Toyota? That tells it all plus you can monitor this forum to get the skinny on other stuff to avoid potential pitfalls like the tranny cooler install we have all have been doing.
 
No I dont have the maintenance schedule, I bought the T4R from a friend. I am just curious because I need this vehicle to last a while. I know that the timing belt was changed at 150K. Does the transmission fluid need to be changed, spark plugs changed....etc. I am not a gear head and I am just asking for advice on others experiences. Thanks again.
 
'97 maintenance

Hi all - I'm a newcomer and can't find an answer on maintenance above 120k for my '97 T4R. I've kept up with the scheduled maintenance and it still looks and runs great so I'm not too concerned yet, but I just hit 180k and wonder what I'm looking at over the next few years. I should note that the only time my truck approaches extreme driving is during blizzards so it's led a pretty pampered life. Thanks for any guidance.

I think you just start over. After you go over 120k, you go back to 5k. So the next interval would be 125k. That's my understanding.
