1985 4runner in San Diego
Truck is completely stock. Has 195k miles on the original engine and tranny. It's been my daily driver for 3 1/2 years, and been very dependable. Other than routine maintence, I've resealed the front axle, rebuilt the clutch master cylinder and put in a new radiator. I've taken the truck on a few extended trips to Baja which is the only time I've used 4 wheel drive and that was only to get through soft sand. Has BFG AT's with 8k miles on them. Also had paint and body about a year ago.
Few issues. The axle seals are starting to leak again. I think that when I replaced them a few years ago, that I did not set the shims up right. I have new a rebuild kit from Marlin that I will include. Also the truck was stolen and recovered before I purchased it. The ignition key cylinder was popped out, but it was done cleanly. I've started it with a screw driver ever since I've owned it, but have been told that a new key cylinder from Toyota is about $100. Lastly, the brights will click on, but not stay on.
Other than that the 4runner is mechanically sound, no leaks at all. I wouldn't hesitate to drive it cross country tomorrow. I'm selling only because I've decided that a pickup truck with IFS better suits my needs. I use the truck for camping and surf trips not trail rides or rock crawling. Thanks for looking, if you've got anymore questions, let me know.

sorry about the small pics, I haven't figured out how to post full size.

I was close to calling you about this truck after I saw it on Craigslist...But after all of the work I put into my truck this week I don't think I would want to trade it anymore.
But the runner is pretty sweet for being stock.
