hey all, new member here. hopefully plan on picking up an 03 sr5 4x4 v8 with 110,000 miles. ive wanted one of these for a while now...preferably a little newer but hey, its what i can afford :D first off, anything to check for in particular with this milage, known problems? for me 110k is not bad at all for a toyota but always nice to check. also, i know when i get this im gonna have to change it up somehow...atleast cosmetically for now. first option would probably be lighting. what kind of options are there for HIDs or other minor things? also, the exterior is black...anyone make a black woodgrain trim kit. really liked that from the rental ive been driving...
anyways, cant wait to finally get into a 4runner :D

don't mess with the supposed "HID" aftermarket kits. they're worthless.

focus on tires/suspension. first, make sure the truck was maintained properly. timing belt? cam seals? water pump? cv boot ok? lcd bulbs ok? get all this stuff looked at prior to handing over your hard earned cash-o-la.
 
yea ive got a guy helping me find one who is a toyota nut so hopefully he can give me a bit of good insight when i go to check it out as well. gonna make sure not to already start out with a money pit :) not looking to go to crazy with the suspension setup, probably not a whole lot of offroad, and if so nothing major. would like to upgrade the size def with something beefier and a small lift to even it out. ive seen alot of people using the FJ springs...what other good options are out there?
