Time for a little update on this topic. Post up whats wrong with your 4Runner!

1. Both inboard CV boots trashed, mad vibration
2. Front rotors warped
3. Front pads worn, mountains of brake dust
4. Rear shoes worn
5. Unknown obnoxious squeak up front
6. Engine overheats with A/C on, radiator likely clogged (just towed the U-Haul from hell 2500 miles from CA)
7. Exhaust leak
8. Rear LC coils are too long
9. Missing fender flare up front due to an idiot in WY whose insurance is crappy at best

Best of all, I'm a broke a$$ college student.

 

Mine doesn't get to go out to play enough. After I get this house deal behind me I can start playing again.

 

1. tranny is shifting hard
2. The ride is stiff/bumpy
3. I only get 15 mpg
4. I have battery acid eating away my rear cargo mat
5. rotors are starting to warp again
6. everythink squeeks
7. I dont have any power

 

Nothing.

Well, okay, the clutch throw out bearing is making a little noise, but they all seem to do that.

 

1. Shifts hard, pedal problems - getting new clutch in a few weeks
2. Brake fluid needs replacing
3. Battery corroded
4. Timing belt needs to be done
5. CMC might need replacing
6. Various interior things that bother me... anyone have a lower DIN pocket for sale?

 

still has IFS...

 

That's only a problem if you let it be.

 

1. Unknown rear squeaking
2. Front bumper still has gap from 2" body lift
3. 15/16 MPG

 

1. two dead batteries from inactivity
2. front bumper still needs reinforcing
3. rear bumper needs tubing for revised tire carrier (and reinforce the tubing)
4. skid plate design for laser cutter
5. reinforce rear lower control arm mount on the frame
6. oil change
7. change my plugs
8. change my filter(s)
9. doesn't get driven enough! (i'm in the same boat as phil)

 

I was being lazy, Im in the process of getting parts for the swap... I have 215k on the runner and AFTER I started collecting parts this started;

1-power steering acting up again
2-something feels loose in the front (probably the next issue)
3-steering bushings are worn out
4-DS cv is slinging grease
5-rotors are warping again
6-skidplate is un-recognisable
7-not enough flex (not fun on steep off camber descents)
8-OME coils aren't strong enough for a winch bumper

 

1. Driver's side outboard CV boot has been ripped since ive had it (6 months and my dad lives in FL so we never get a chance to fix it.
2. 15-16 MPG
3. Sometimes the starter doesnt work even tho we changed it like 2 months ago.

Other than that it is in really good condition.

 

It turned into a Heep Wagoneer

 

Mine could quite possibly be totalled.

 

Need alignment bad, tried to get one was told need new Pitman arm and idler arm.
Getting those replaced and alignment done on Monday. other than that, all is good.

 

I wish mine was..it would be worth more.

 

1. Cylinder #3 zero compression due to burnt/collapsed valves.
2. Power steering pump leaking.
Could be seals or the hose.
3. Front brakes and rotors need replaced.

#1 would cost to much, estimated from dealer at $6K to rebuild or put in new/used engine.
Not worth it to me, blue book is $4K.

Solution already worked out

 

nothing

it IS a toyota afterall

 

Still dont have a driveshaft.

 

My antenna started grinding gears the other day. Thats all i can think of.

 

nothing wrong per se... but:

1: warpage maximus on the brakes. tundra brake setup in the mail
2: rear bumpers dented to hell. new one bein fabbed up. hopefully on by months end.
3: really annoying squeal from underneath/rear. gonna lube up down there tonight.
4: PS inner CV squirtin out some grease *shrug*
5: not getting wheeled enough
