AR15xAR10s N180 Winter Beater/Party Truck 2000 Highlander 5spd

Never heard they called these editions Highlanders, just did some research, interesting. Only ever heard of the actual model Highlanders 2001+.

It looks really clean with those wheels and gold emblems Mason.

Intermittent voltage doesn't sound like the alternator itself but I am generally a noob with electronics. I've only seen failing alternators not even get close to the 14+ that is normal, would most likely be more constant at the 11-12 if battery is being relied on.

Rear suspension is in. My god was that easy.

I’m buying more 4runners. They’re so simple. I love it.


As for the electrical issue, it seems to have not done it again. But we will see what happens as i’m about to go drive it around the hood

Not yet...

 

I’ll post a photo of the window sticker later, its really neat.

I appreciate it Matt, i’m still doing some digging

Wait until its done

 

Oh herro

 

Beautiful rig, my late sister in law had one just like it, a black 4Runner sport. I wanted to buy it after she passed, but my wife didn’t want to be reminded of her sister every time she saw it.

 

New builds are always fun.

 

damn good looking truck..


seeing a highlander edition 4runner out here is like finding a unicorn. especially a manual!

 

Thats completely understandable but definitely a bummer

You know i’m happy to have you aboard, as always

I might be willing to drive it out west when i’m done with it

 

hmm im not out west, if i was my vehicles would be much less rusty!

 

Funny thing is, the original owner of this took it to Chicago on the regular. Thats how it got all its “highway” miles

 

chicago winters can be rough on a car. espeically if he took the tri state.

my corolla and tacoms miles are all from my fathers trip to work. 140 miles each day. 7 days a week.

The radio is bad. May have something to do with my electircal problems.

Otherwise no. Ran it for a while last night and it did not do what it was doing. So i’m just going to throw the exhaust together this week and get it inspected

 

Its done. I mean done. Ready for inspection this week.

Calling in the morning.
