yea that woudl definately make it easier. never thouhgt of removing the tire. toyota put them bad boys in a hard to reach spot. thanks!!

 

no kidding! its still a little tricky once your in there but you can get both hands on it through the panel

 

so once you get everything fixed how much lift are you gonna put on? is it gonna be taller than your other truck?

 

im gonna put marlin 4in trail-flex kit. hopefully ordering it very soon when i get my taxes back. my plans with the taxes r to regear the 95 4.88, buy the marlin kit for the 85, buy some locked 5.29s 3rds and a flatbed, oh yea and a clutch from marlin fro my 95

 

wow you should have 2 pretty nice yotas man!!! What kind of lockers you plan on getting?

 

probably lockrite, but ive been thinkin bout aussie, im not sure its still up in the air, tehn ill save fro some dirtysevens

where exactly is windsor va? i live in bristol va

 

Windsor is a small small town in the tidewater region about 30 minutes away from chesapeake and a hour away from virginia beach. lol but ya im getting a lockrite for my truck next month

 

Look on your driver side fender well, you'll see efi test connector, run a jumper wire in it... That should fix your starting issues. For a detailed explanation, look on 4crawler.com under his 4runner section. I'm on my iPod, so it's hard to link the pic.

 

thanks wslytoy!!!!! ill definately look into that

 

i checked out his website and it looks like you just run a wire in the connecter on both sides. seems liek a simple fix. ill try this this week when im off

 

i was browsin around on TG, and noticed there kits fro 79-85 is quite a bit cheaper then marlins, plus coem with knuckle/wheelbearing kits. anyone got teh TG springs on a 85 or under? i kno quite a few have the Marlins.

 

Talk to Scotty at AOR, he's a trail-gear vendor so he could answer any questions ya got

 

thankye sir!!!!

 

Wow your kinda all over the place askin questions...

I personally recommend the knuckle rebuild kit from TG...but get the marlin inner seals for like $12...itll save you from rebuilding them again later. (from experience)

But for the front springs....theres a bunch of options.

 

reason i ask about the TG springs is ive heard some bad things about them. i dont recall hearing anyone complain about the marlin springs. but plans seem to be changin for the worst now. i was gonna throw my income taxes at it, but i reckon me and my GF is gonna try to get us an apartment or sumn, so i need to save some money. now the plans are regear my 95, put a clutch in it, and get a flatbed for teh 85. and maybe throw a couple spools in the 85 idk

 

check your injectors primarliy your cold start injector its on the top right side of the upper plenum, i bought a beautiful 85 4 runner the guy thought the motor blew up on for 200 bucks and turns out the injectors were all trash and loading the thing up on fuel and the computer couldnt compensite enough air flow and eventually quit running got those fixed then it started, starting rough and i looked at the cold start injector and it was also trashed since then its ran like a top

 

dont loose the brass washers it took napa a very long time to get them and the local dealership despritly needs new parts people where i live

 

thanks 907. im gonna hopefully find teh time to go get a fuel filter tomoro and get that changed out to see if thats the problem. then ill go from there. ill see if i can figure out the injector thing to

 

FLAME MEEEE
Well i went to pu tmy fuel filter on, then i started lookin at the EFI test connecter that was mentioned. found it , then seen one of teh plugs was unplugged from the inner fender. plugged it up, viola. but it still hesitates kinda if im on it hard mostly in 4th. im gonna change to filte rand see if that helps. slo, since this thing was unplugged, coudl thsi have caused anyharm to anything, the one that was unplugged is the bigger one circled in green(borrowed pic from 4crawler.)http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CheapTri.../FuelPump1.jpg


EDIT-nvm. it msut have jsut been a kawinky dink. cuz i just realized that plug has nothin to do with it. so im back to square one. i tried the test connecter. no luck there neither

 

changed the filter, no luck. dropped ti off at the shop this mornin. it keeps throwin a CEL for about 10 secs and still not gettin fuel. but good news is, im goin to NC to pick up a flatbed tomoro mornin. ill have pics as soon as i get home. no the susp setup is up in the air. its either 63s and RUF, or 63s and 44044's
