They are the same rotors and pads on the 80, they suck no matter what. Just git gud on the bearing preload haha

 

I'm still going to go with a T4R tho. I want the V8

 

The 100 series LCs you're looking at have the same 4.7 V8.......

 

Good to know, I was thinking it might be an easy fix but didn't know the MC was expensive. I don;t care about the body damage to it really.

 

the ones you posted have the same v8

 

And weigh a lot more I would think.

 

Exactly.

 

940lb difference as long as we're talking v8 runner

 

id still see if you can find a 05 and up. The VVTI engines are the ones with 1 million miles. the non vvti can too. but you also get the better 5 speed auto. (obviously price may be a limiting factor and the 03-04 are fine. just remember the transmission was developed for a 6 pot in the 80s)

 

That's pretty hefty. And yes, that's what I'm talking about.

 

That first T4R I linked says it has the 5 speed but it's a 2003. Not so then?

 

no 5 speed. the early 4runners were a340 transmissions

 

It should be. A750 was in all the V8 and later 4.0 4th gens

 

OK, so who is correct then??

 

oh im sorry. im backwards. yues the v8 is a 5 speed.

 

i dun goofed. i forgot my buddies truck is a 4 speed because its a v6.

 

03 was the first year of the A750..... so I should be right, was the first year of the V8 in a runner too

 

Holy shit it's that much???? Damn the 100 series is more of a beastly hog than I remembered. Wow

 

v6 was the 4 speed for the first 2 years.

i was getting confused with the tundras. they got stuck with the a340 in the early years

 

Thanks for the clarification guys!
