22RE-T 4Runner

hey I Don't know if you wanted to lower it more than it sits now but I have an idea... its a good one.

take the second and third leaf from the bottom of the front pack and put boomerangs on the front.

and move your rear shackle mount forwards about 4" that will lower it probably 3-4 inches and soften up the suspension a bunch..

that tubs clean though props. I just started building on im already wider than i am tall and I still feel like its going to wanna be upside down more than on rubber

x2 thats a straight body!!  diggin the pinstripes too

i dont think they were stock, but they give it a unique look. i wanna paint the turbo graphics on like this one

[muddytaco]

yea the turbo stripes are sweet fa sho, im just a big fan of anything that looks like an old man put it there lol

[4LoRunner]

first i hated the pinstripes but now im starting to like it my buddy said it gives that "New Mexico or Tuscan look" i guess :: i would like to buff the paint though to see what i can get out of her.

you'd be surprised at what a buff does. my cab looks amazing once I buffed it

[4LoRunner]

yea my buddy did it to his 85 and it looked like it was fresh off the lot. theres some spots where the clear coat is peeling off what do u guys suggest i should do?

[THK Matt]

Duplicolor Clear Coat in a rattle can! is bomb.... lay some coats. make sure to feather it. dont cake it.

[THK Matt]

before you do that... grab a scotch brite and soak it in water and lightly sipe the area... to get any lose clear coat off.

[4LoRunner]

alright sweet thanks man n scotch brite like the green stuff for like dishes or?

[Peterbuilt84]

You can use a regular scuff pad too. They sell them at any auto parts store that carries paint supplies.

[4LoRunner]

ill uses what ever keeps $$$ in my wallet

[THK Matt]

alright sweet thanks man n scotch brite like the green stuff for like dishes or?

Yup the green pads for dishes... make sure its soaked in water or itll be too abrasive.. and if you have an old scotch brite thats more worn in and "softer" I recommend that over a new one. either one will do. just be light with it.

[4LoRunner]

lets see what do you think do the buffing first then do the clear coat or vise versa?

[THK Matt]

CC first.

[4LoRunner]

now im having problems with the runner.... so Tuesday night the truck fired up and ran fine and then tomorrow cam i tried starting her up and she would fire up but would run for about 3 secs i thought maybe its fuel pump goin bad, fuel filter clogged, intake is plugged somehow. i checked the fuses, vac lines, connectors but idk what. any suggestions?

[THK Matt]

going to need a little more info..

[4LoRunner]

well it gets fuel n sparks no vac leaks idk what else it could be. wheres the diagnostic box to read the check engine codes

[4LoRunner]

just did a diagnostic trouble code check and it came up with 11
-loss of power supply to ecu
-ignition switch/circuit
-main relay/circuit
-ecu

Scratch that the runner fixed itself

[bslh8tr]

I need to body swap mine. Rust bucket! Figure I'll flop it first!

[4LoRunner]

i think i tweaked the frame or my springs a little and is leaning to the pass side more than before

[4LoRunner]

does anyone have a spare ebrake cable i think mine ceased up or the plastic outer shell melted onto the cable... it engages but wont disengage

[4LoRunner]
