    probably not for performance reasons. but maybe for cleaner air. i still have my stock air intake but the tube is broken at the joint to the box :( was hoping i could use just the snorkel but i doubt it unless i can get it filtered

    Good point. You got a hell of a deal at 2k. Something like that would go for at least 4 grand where I'm at. I love that 4.7, great motor.

    It makes a healthy amount of power. My family has a 2003 4runner with the 4.7 and it's deceptively powerful and quick. Plus it gets better gas mileage than my 3.4.

    Any one here have any ideas how you gain access to the bearing in a pulley like this, there are two pieces pressed in either side to set it's depth on the bracket it holds onto and the one on the front is essentially something for the bolt to hold onto. I cannot for the life of me figure out how I'd go about pressing these apart becasue they're three pieces front - bearing - back. After those are out I can probably figure out how to get the bearing out of the pulley body. Anyone... bueller?

    It's a lowered 2rz powered 5 lug with the front clip removed for show car duties.

    A fast street truck is the plan for my 5-lug. The people who do that to a Tacoma is taking the term street truck to a whole new level though.
