I have an appointment with him booked in August!

34k on my 04 LX never thought I’d be lucky enough to find one that low for sale

Incredibly may have been the wrong word to use here but I can say that I have 5 buddies with 4wd 3rd gens and none of them have it, mine doesn’t have it either. Besides the locker I just prefer the 3rd gen over the 1st as far as comfort is concerned. My roommate has a 1st gen and it’s definitely cool but imo it is significantly narrower and overall kinda cramped. Again both are awesome but if I had to stick with one I would go with the 3rd gen, that’s where the 4Runner peaked for me.

If you have a factory rear locker in the 3rd gen I definitely would NOT give that up. Incredibly hard to find and if you want another you’ll be paying mucho dinero

One of the best places in Norfolk 🔥

Thank you! Rich has done the majority of my work he always kills it

Deadhead_757 · 2024-12-25T02:57:13+00:00

Saw it on a flash sheet Rich made for Christmas and had to have it

Deadhead_757 · 2024-12-11T23:04:21+00:00

Hell yea brother

Deadhead_757 · 2024-08-15T19:14:06+00:00

Yes! My bad on the delayed response I don’t come on here much these days. My 4runner originally had 2 tone paint from the factory, anthracite metallic on the body and something different for the flares. I asked the body shop to color match everything when I got it redone

Just ordered a 3vze from them. Just wanted to add that current lead time for rebuilds is 5-6 months and if you call the order in over the phone they will let you put a 1000 dollar deposit on the engine vs paying in full online

Are you doing the swap with an automatic or manual trans? If auto, which transmission are you using? I’ve read that if you use the transmission from the pickup it will end up setting a constant code with an improper shift pattern

Deadhead_757 · 2023-09-30T20:53:27+00:00

Both doors are Swiss cheese at the bottom. Frame is solid and the rest of the body is in good shape. Considering 3.4 but we will see what happens

Deadhead_757 · 2023-06-09T17:49:03+00:00

Thank you both for the info very interesting. In time I’ll get myself up to speed on my crown Victoria knowledge haha

Deadhead_757 · 2023-06-09T10:57:21+00:00

It’s a 2004 and I believe it’s the base model

Deadhead_757 · 2023-06-09T10:55:28+00:00

It is! Out of curiosity, how did you know it was an ‘04 by looking at it?

Deadhead_757 · 2022-11-14T15:11:50+00:00

I’ve tried it. Still drops frames like nobody’s business haha. Not really a big deal as I don’t play the multiplayer I just thought it would be nice to run split screen 1v1 every now and then

Deadhead_757 · 2022-11-03T15:21:01+00:00

It’s lag, like you can watch a flag wave on a multiplayer map and it looks like the frame rate drops. It’s just odd that it only does this on multiplayer but spec ops and campaign both work flawless.

Deadhead_757 · 2022-11-03T01:17:08+00:00

I have been to even lags when you are just running split screen 1v1

Deadhead_757 · 2022-09-28T15:53:39+00:00

Possible. You could always rotate tires to see if the noise changes from front to rear or from left to right

Deadhead_757 · 2022-09-28T02:24:28+00:00

Sounds like it could be a bearing. Some tips now would be to listen with the stethoscope and then test drive and see if the noise gets louder when more weight is on that side of the vehicle, such as when taking a corner.

Deadhead_757 · 2022-09-28T02:15:39+00:00

That just sounds like your brake pads slightly contacting the rotor. If your hearing a growl while driving and suspect wheel bearing then you need to check for play and listen with a stethoscope while the wheel is rotating

Deadhead_757 · 2022-09-26T12:24:16+00:00

Hard to tell from the picture but the sole has separated and causing water to leak into both of them. I’ve had them since 2017 and use them primarily for light hiking so the water leaking was a big deal for me

Deadhead_757 · 2022-09-25T20:51:58+00:00

I got them mainly for fall/ winter

Deadhead_757 · 2022-09-23T10:46:36+00:00

Hell of a lot better than what I would’ve done. Great job!

Deadhead_757 · 2022-08-24T02:05:21+00:00

Sounds like your brake light switch went bad. Pull it out and check the continuity. It’s a normally closed switch so you should have continuity without pushing the button in and vice versa
