No way in hell I'd run those bias ply pieces.
Not to mention, I'd need 16.5" rims.

Dude, once again, you are an inspiration. You are great and your truck is sick, too bad I am not in Cali anymore, I would definitely have to go out wheeling with you!

Thanks for the compliments guys. The sas has been somewhat put on hold. I don't have the money for it right now.

Recently the power steering pump has been leaking. I have to top it off with about 1/8th of a quart after ever 40 miles or so. I just got the power steering gasket kit in from Toyotapartszone.com. The rebuild will come this weekend.

I was going to ask you for the part number for the PS pump kit, but I found it a second ago. Post up how the rebuild fares.

Ooops. I meant to post this too. This is for a 2.7. Not sure if a 3.4 gasket kit is different.



It appears to have every part that the FSM claims is non reusable during assembly.

Was about $50. Seemed a little steep, but oh well.

If he knew it was busted, that should have knocked off like $500 from the price. Which would make it a pretty decent deal depending on mileage.
I paid $5600 for mine back in 09. I thought that was an awesome deal with the truck hovering right at 100K.



Maybe I forgot to post this here too.. This was just the other day. I'm aiming for 300K.

That was an amazing deal, especially for back then! I've been looking for a '98-00 4 banger 4x4 for about 3 months now. Not to replace the 4runner, but for a new DD. I've found a few for $4-5K, but they are usually gone in hours and 150-200K.

I got mine in Austin Texas though. Prices for Toyotas there are generally a couple thousand less than here. Especially these old 4x4's.


Good luck on your search my friend!
