The photos should pretty much sum everything up...this 4Runner has been amazing. It’s been my pride and joy daily vehicle which has never been on dirt it’s entire life thus far. I was gonna sell it 2yrs ago to fund a new project but before selling I wanted to replace the timing chain guides on it cause 230k exactly it started to get a little chain slap. Well this ended up being my project over the last couple years cause I think she deserved it ...being it was still all original everything I went ahead and replaced with all NEW Toyota Parts....and built a
COMPLETELY NEW MOTOR from the bottom up, including alternator, throttle body, all sensors, condenser, a/c compressor, starter, fuel injectors, fuel filter, fuel rail, iAc valve, wires, plugs, hoses, all hose clamps, plugs, seals, gaskets, bolts, radiator, pulleys, gas tank, fuel pump, exhaust manifold, magnaflow CA legal catalytic converter, all the exhaust front to back with Gibson muffler, optima red top battery, along with big 3 upgrade and battery terminals, ground connections, all wiring double rewrapped in wire loom, all new brakes, rotors, 1.25” wheel spacers, fully flushed and evacuated brake system with all new fluid. All new mobile 1 synthetic fluids throughout the entire vehicle also running Toyota pink coolant on the new motor.
Also replaced all of the suspension components front to rear giving it 4”-5” Lift from original base height ..shocks, coils, springs, endlink, upper and lower UCA’s
Also a couple bonus mods I did when I built the motor was delete the balancing shafts so there will never be a worry of ruining the bottom end from worn seals. I installed the balance shafts and everything else I just didn’t install the new secondary chain that turns them. And there is no vibration what so ever by doing so. I also installed a Teflon Crank Scraper ..these two mods alone brought a whole life and feel,of power to a 2.7l 4cyl 3RZ-FE motor ...one word WOW! This rig is mechanically sound for years...
