So i totaled my 4runner

I'm a retired police officer...in the thousands of crashes I respond to...I never unbuckled a dead person!

Buddy, I'm glad your ok...and better yet, you learned your lesson...always wear your seatbelt!!

Sucks though you didn't have full coverage...
 
got some pictures, im very thankful that the door didnt open and i didnt get thrown out of the 4runner but im 6'4'' 260 pounds probably saved me from bouncing arround to much inside, the a pillar is split in half and the whole truck is twisted pretty good

seems like the tire hit the curb first breaking the lower ball joint and then the post....

How good the rear tires? Sometimes, people use newer tires to the front and old ones to the back and the result is....... this.

What is the make of the tires?
 
I was wondering if the ball joint had failed at the same time causing the truck to turn so violently, I reallly dont remember having more than getting the beginning of that ohs-hit feeling in my stomach (almost nothing) before I hit the pole. which felt like the back end of the car was coming around on me, I tried steering (turning left to straighten it back out) through it with no throttle or brake input, I was in 3rd gear maybe going maybe 25to30 mph it the pole that i hit was on the passenger side of the 4runner.
 
I'm interested in the 6 bolts for the upper timing belt cover, the 4 bolts for the front tow hooks, the printed control board behind the climate controls in the center dash, possibly your floor mats (depending upon condition), and the brown connectors for the front headlight bulbs...
 
Jeez man, I didn't expect to see it that bad. Ouch! Real glad you're alright, you wouldn't have been in a lot of other vehicles.

Was it a 5 speed?
 
the 4runner is white with tan intierior, i have gotten some offers as far as parts, if i get some more people interested in the major parts that have some miles but are useable id be willing to strip most of it and scrap what isnt useable. any offers? again im in philadelphia

Can I get the rear drive shaft and rear sway bar? pm me with price? I can pick it up
