Can hear your 29's/30's now

 

Looks rattle canned

Should feel at home

 

wait does it really? Looks normal to me but I'm looking on a phone

 

Could be the lighting or compression but the driver side looks very matte

 

Easily

That's a lot of sheen, and I don't recall a silver 4R that wasn't a 'Highlander' or 'Sport' edition (with that sport hood) if that was even a color used on a 3rd Gen.

If it had a stock paint job, that mileage and condition shouldn't deter you.

Have to remember I got much more for my 4R with I think 288k miles it was.

 

Hmm if I go look at it I'll definitely check. Should be more obvious in person, not a deal breaker but he'd def have to come down off that asking price if so

 

And reason why I say that is because only those models were monochromatic.

The lesser/lower end models had black trim pieces.

 

Im not sure Ive ever seen such poor concrete. Looks like its mixed with dirt. Thats the nice thing about bigger tire trucks. You don't really need a lift. It would be nice to check travel though.

 

Man, got me looking back at my old 4R when it was stock

 

@eon_blue

Want me to ask in the local Yota FB group?

 

Gah, shoulda looked at the wheels better last night, someone Toyota'd too hard at the mall

 

Hell yeah thanks

 

You want to keep it between 1996-2000 right?

2001-02 have that center diff lock and were not available with a rear locker.

 

On a video from that Waldo guy with the 12 valve GMT400 he installs a small slab in his barn to temporary mount a two post lift.

Comments were filled with people warning him about all the potential faults in how he laid the concrete, installed the lift, time waited before drilling into concrete, etc. Definitely something I’d worry about being done right. Even by “professionals”

 

Hell, I saw a video where concrete that was less than a year old was destroyed by the use of salt. The hardscaped area was prone to black ice and so salt was used to keep water/snow from freezing on the surface.

The concrete just crumbled afterward.

 

Oh

 

Yeah, no manuals after 2000

Definitely under 300k, under 250k ideal.

 

Ah that's right.

Yeah I posted, just needs to get approved which it will.

 

Does the new owner still hit you up about shit he finds lol
