New 4runner owner

Whats up everyone. I just recently purchased a 98 Limited with 112k miles. Its in prisitine condition. One owner vehicle and was very well taken care of. The only thing it needs is some new shocks and Im guessing a ball joint (it has a shimmy to it above 60-65). I purchased it off a guy in Queens, whcih is why the suspension is shot. Roads in NYC are horrible! But I probably would be replacing the suspension anyways even if it was good, so it doesnt really matter all that much to me. My last 2 vehicles were grand cherokees. All and all I have owned the whole Jeep line and have also spent alot of time fixing them. I am officially done with jeeps. I have better things to do than fixing shiit every other weekend. Its funny though, coming from a Jeep forum where there is like 5 pages a day from people that had stuff go wrong with their jeep that day, then I come here and see thats not the case with 4runners! So, ya just thought I would introduce myself and say whats up to everyone. I posted a few pictures from when I picked her up. I will post more after I have the wheels powdercoated black and front windows tinted. Also what shocks do you guys recomend for the 4runner? I dont want to spend a fortune, but I dont want garabage either. Thanks.

are you planning to lift it? now would be a good idea. since you will buy and install new shocks anyways. just an idea for you.

Glad to have yah on board and you have alot to catch up! we are always here to help when we can. Hope you enjoy the truck more then your Jeep in the years to come.
 
I am probably not going to lift it. I had my last grand Cherokee lifted and althogh I liked it, my fiance did not. We swap vehicles quite a bit and she isn't comfortable driving a lfted vehicle plus we just had our first child toghether and I wouldnt want to see her trying to lift our child in a car seat up any higher than she already has to.
