well I am thinking the 02 did something, no more smell at a stop light.

 

Crap hitting the fan, co-worker put a sack of crap, literally right by the fan, the smell is god awful, coming into the cab.

 

........ what's wrong?... well, I apparently have NO FREAKIN CLUE on this one! hahaha.

I'll letcha know what it WAS when it's solved.... Till then, it's a 'NOX FACTORY', lol.

 

I've got rust through by the gas filler gauge
Fuel Gauge inop
defrost/floor switch inop
horn inop
exhaust leak
both diffs seep a little...

 

How much water? A little water is not a problem. It is just condensation. What color is the water?

Well as I came around to 431K, I'm throwing in a clutch kit, new rear main seal, and new shocks. I am letting (with supervision) the students at the college do my clutch since I am doing my CWE (Certified Work Experience) at the moment. I decided to put my rear shocks on, and I found these:


New leaf packs coming next week :/
My rack and pinion needed replacing too

 

Just replaced the knock sensor wire and radiator as both were old, and needed replacing. had gotten code 52. put the intake system back together, and went to start it up, and it made a high pitched whining noise. got out, and the whole passenger side of the engine was covered with fuel. it seemed like the fuel was coming from under the intake manifold, but not sure exactly where. I am going to be taking it apart again these next few days, any suggestions? or common mistakes that I could have made. Thanks, any tips would be great.

 

It was my first time attempting to take apart the intake manifold on this truck...I also believe I might have messed up the timing belt, obviously nothing intentional, I know enough to know to match the markings, but feel like there is something else that I am missing that would make it much easier. once again, any tips or advice will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

^Messed up the timing on the timing belt.* thought I would clarify.

 

My heater and defrost still won't work, radio has no power, 3rd set of front leaf springs are bowed backwards, and my patience has been destroyed.

 

my 33's rub at full lock. and I've cranked the t-bars.

 

Have a first Gen 87 4runner, and my inclinometer will not work.., the little green light comes on but that's all, and if anyone has any pics of the inside of their 87 4runner please email me, cause my landlords son is who I have gotten mine from and the inside is almost stripped.. Thanks

 

the only thing wrong with my 4Runner is that the A/C doesnt work but it was cuz i removed the wrong bolt. on the back drivers side i have a huge dent from an 18 wheeler who hit my truck while it was parked. my engine is dirty, and im losing coolant. just remember, toyota trucks are the only vehicles with a soul and they never die...no matter what!

 

I busted both cv axle shafts and rounded out the splines at the hub this weekend out at Moab. :0( Need help replacing. Where do I get the spindles?

 

As a sidenote: I replaced TWO driver side axles in as many days just one week before going out to Moab! Aside from going with a SAS, is there anything stronger I can throw in there? I've had the truck about a year and have replaced 5 axles (not to include these two new breaks).

 

Rear trunk hatch doesn't lock or fully close if you shut the door lightly, also the the light in the trunk area that lights up when you open the door doesn't light up.

 

Bad rear window motor. I know you can get them on ebay, but why did Toyota discontinue or quit making them??

 

Go to villagetoyotaaprts.com These guys have all sorts of factory parts from every model toyota since 1975. You could almost build an entire truck from this website.

 

Turnsignals, wipers stoped but motor, switch, and linkage are good (so are fuses and links..I cant figure it out) dome light and guage lights are out and the "box" by the pedal is just gone. No heater blower power. Have to slam the gears..does not grind just have to muscle it into first and reverse. The grill is busted. So so soooo many others.

 

Thanks for the link, but I didn't see the window motor assembly for sale there. The couple local dealerships I asked about it told me that because Toyota discontinued making them, that they would not sell me one. There are plenty of them on ebay, but I would prefer a warranty on parts from a dealer or some type of automotive shop, over an ebay vendor.

 

I hear that, I usually use the site for the diagrams attached to each part. They show an exploded view with all components labeled with part numbers. It helps when trying to track something down. Don't forget about the page though, there are some serious gems on there.
