Bump!

 

I just wanted to let everyone know the 4Runner is still running strong! It hasn't seen any huge changes, just working great as-is. I DID get a new set of BFG KM3s for it a week ago. I love them. I need to repair a front CV boot, but then hope to get it out on the rocks to test the new tires soon. It's pretty much my daily right now.

I've still got a solid front axle in the garage waiting for the day I get bored enough to do a swap, but I love the thing so much as-is, I'm not in a hurry.

 

glad to hear youre still around and keepin the rig. so many people have disappeared around here. its like a ghost town.

 

Hah! Crazy that my last post was exactly a year ago. Truck is in the exact same situation. I still drive it for fun and use it to haul stuff for the yard and house. Unfortunately I haven't been wheeling in the last year. I've been pretty hunkered down while we try to get the pandemic under control.

The motor is eating coolant, but I don't have any leaks or white vapor out of the exhaust. So I'm thinking it must be a slow leak near the water pump or somewhere pressurized on the block that's evaporating before it can turn into a drip. I've also got some surface rust I need to address and paint on the top of the cab.

But yeah, intend on holding onto it for the foreseeable future! Still love it.

 

Good to see your thread get a bump Ocell.
