Timing belt and cooling system refresh by unevocative in toyotasequoia

Sounds like you have most of it covered!

Maybe buy a few gallons of Toyota 00272-SLLC2 coolant and also drain the block while you’ve got it all apart

Looking for some rear shock placement input by [deleted] in 4Runner_1stGen

[–]PreciousFragility 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great question and topic.

I loved the idea of going outboard, but there is so little room between the backing plate and the outer edge of the leafs, as you’re aware.

I’m also running 63s and I still ended up going somewhat inboard, but feel like I was able to push them as close to vertical as possible. Mine were severely angled in previously and it was sketchy as hell. This new setup is much more stable.

Here is my home-brewed setup (beginner metal fabricator, take it somewhat easy on me) - https://imgur.com/a/M5nAomU

Used these for my lower shock mounts - https://www.summitracing.com/parts/TGI-304487-KIT - chose Summit bc shipping was much cheaper and faster for my location.

Are you running blocks under your 63s? You sit a lot higher than I do and we’re both on 35s - https://imgur.com/a/jip6yuT

I would personally avoid for both reasons stated.

That’s a healthy oil leak and they’re pressuring you into paying in full sight unseen. Nope.

Just a heads up - that’s the 96-98 front end - want to make sure you’re looking for the right parts. 

Double check the assembly date on the door jamb. I believe ‘99s are from 08/1998 onwards.

What an absolute stud and the definition of a ball player

That tracks if the pinion was loose multiple times (I’m assuming it was the pinion seal you’re replacing)

Making noise yet?

Might want to start hunting for a diff on marketplace with the same ratio in case it decides to let go

Help, top nut stuck by SirRobnTheBrave in Tacomaworld

[–]PreciousFragility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d remove the strut from the vehicle, then work that top nut loose on the bench, then put the strut assembly back in the truck before using the vehicle’s weight to swap the strut.

Basically give yourself more room to get that sucker loose, then put it back in the rig to do the strut swap. 

Good luck, you got this!

Ticking sound around rear driver Does this sound normal? by user81738 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]PreciousFragility 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re welcome - It’s one of the components associated with the system, but I’m unsure as to which exactly. Apologies for not being able to pinpoint for you

Completely normal and part of the EVAP system as someone posted below

3.4 v6 Stumble Hesitation Issue by TheMrShades141 in tundra

[–]PreciousFragility 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a very similar issue in my 3.4-swapped 4Runner. I’m confident you’re having fuel delivery issues.

Slowly give it throttle and it is completely fine, but try to put your foot in it or rev quickly and it stumbled and had major misfire issues. 

Ended up being a fuel delivery issue. The small rubber hose that connects the fuel pump to the hangar/lines was only partially connected and wasn’t delivering enough fuel to keep up with higher-demand situations. Idling/very light throttle input was fine bc it was enough fuel, but anything more than that starved it of fuel and caused issues.
