New to me '97 Limited in Texas

[atxrunner]

Hi just picked up my first 4runner 2 weeks ago after owning 3 jeeps. Just sold my lifted and locked '08 Jeep Liberty to get rid of a car payment and the cash car i chose was a 3rd Gen Runner. Picked this '97 Limited 4x4 with 152k up at a dealership here in austin for $3500 but it needed some tlc. So far i've dropped about another $900 into it (fluids, suspension, ac, tranny cooler) trying to bring this one back to life here she is new.....

Welcome! There's no better place than this to learn more about your Runner. Folks here are great. Btw, I'm in Austin, too! Bought a black '99 4x4 Sport recently.
