Its a Toyota! lol bought my gf a 1990 4runner tonight.. went alone to look at it/pay for it (i kinda knew I was going to get it , but she didnt LOL) going to pick it up here in a few mins and have her follow me home... I'll post pics soon.. we really need to add NON TACOMA toyota's forums lol for us with tacomas and non-tacomas

 

con'grats man!!

cant wait to see pics

 

Congrats man!

and yes we need a toyota non-tacoma discussion forum!

 

Congratulations on your new ride!

 

right on man.

 

Congrats. I think there is(or was) a Toyota Truck and SUV forum.

 

Cool, I've had 4runners for years Never any problems, great ride

 

Here it is.

dude ty where was it burried at? crap I never saw it before lol her current ride is a 2002 ford explorer sport trac 4x4... its actually pretty nice... I mean leather power everything including sliding window...but its a ford...and we owe money on it... I paid cash for the 4runner and hope to just sell ford for what we owe... I had helped a buddy of mine put a 4 runner rear suspension in a 79 or 80 toyota 4x4 before... it was awesome the coil/link suspension is a great deal..even though the 4runners always sag in rear I'll address that soon enough

 

ok slight problems I decided to replace the trans filter cause the tranny shifted OK not great but OK... so did that pita btw...had to drop the sway bar to get the pan out from under truck etc... anyhow.. did that and it shifts little better now...but if your going down rd and slam the gas the od/off light blinks in the dash... wtf? I've only ever worked on one other auto toy and it was my ex gf's tacoma with like 27,000 miles so no issues

 

cant wait for pics man!!!! and it sounds kinda like the o/d sensor may be the problem. you can try resetting the comp, but i aint sure its gonna help.

 

yeah i need to get pics but I work during day and with it getting dark around 5:30pm it sucks to try and do anything outside right now... od sensor eh? may look into it.. one thing i did try was the od/off switch actually works push it and light comes on solid and stays on till you mash gas and then it starts blinking... no check engine light though... eh dunno

 

let us know what ya find out bro!!! and i agree....getting dark early really sucks!!!

 

as promised....cause unlike Will i deliever pictures like I say I will... LOL gotta rib you man

 

ya'll gotta be patient man!!! im workin on it!!

 

another one during day... little work to do on the previous owners bondo work... but pretty solid other wise
