2001 Toyota 4runner Sr5 Sport Utility 4-door 3.4l on 2040-cars
Lansing, Michigan, United States
I purchased it almost 1.5 years ago from a Honda dealer in Southgate, MI. It was a one owner, woman owned vehicle. No accidents. It had 104,xxx when I bought it and it now has just over 116,xxx. Everything works, it is mechanically and structurally sound. It does not leak, or burn any fluids. Fly and drive, I am 15 minutes from Lansing Capital Airport. I would rather a local sale as I am more interested in a partial trade for a decent, reliable small car with the difference being made in cash on the buyers end. Some of the pictures were taken prior to the Monstaliner going on. The odometer reading pictured is also incorrect. The 4runner is sitting at 116,760 miles as of 10/25/2013. Here is the run down on the good and bad.... The bad: Rust on the drivers rocker. Some perforation but it is not entirely gone. There is some spatter on the interior door panels from the Monstaliner. Its not bad, but it is there. The fabric on the door panel on the drivers door is pulling away from the plastic. Ive been meaning to glue it back on, just haven't. One of the elements in the rear defroster has lost continuity. But the defroster works otherwise. The Good: Everything works. Power windows, rear window, all transfer case functions, high low range. All buttons, switches work their appropriate accessories and all the accessories work. All fluids other than the brake and power steering fluid have been change and any accompanying filters. Transmission was fully flushed in my driveway. My intention in building this up was first and foremost to make it a safe daily driver. New parts I have added/replaced since I took ownership. - All fluids were changed except the brake and power steering fluid. Synthetics were used were available, which is just about everything. The transmission got a full flush in my driveway, almost 21 quarts. - Yokohama Geolander AT/s tires, LT 256-75-16 have about 10,000 miles on them. Tread can be seen in one of the photos. - OME 881/890 lift from Toytec. OME 90004 springs in the front and Monroe Magnum for an FJ80 in the rear. $700 - Toytec rear upper adjustable control arms to bring the pinion back in alignment. $450 - SPC/Light Racing front upper control arms to bring the caster back after lifting. $400 - Sonoran Steel adjustable panhard bar. $250 - New lower ball joints. 555 brand. $120 - New inner and outer tie rods. 555 brand. $175 - Poly steering rack bushings. From Wheelers Offroad. $20 - New Steering Guide. OE. $60. Installed less than 100 miles ago. - New Denso Radiator $100 - New Aux Tranny cooler. I believe its a 24,000btu unit, but it could be a 19,000. Run in series with the radiator. $60 - New Denso AC compressor, condensor, drier/filter, expansion valve. $550 total in parts. - New rear driveshaft built locally using 1310 series u-joints. I JUST rebuilt it as well. All 3 joints and the centering ball. $485 - Tundra Brake upgrade on the front with the 231 calipers. $330 - New rear brakes, shoes, drums, springs etc. $225 - Kenwood KIV bt-900 stereo and Cobra 18 WX STII in the dash. I custom mount these to fit into the double din opening. Looks OE. - Custom built rear drawer system. - Color matched Monstaliner on the entire body. - Timing belt service done this past summer. I also replaced the fan bracket. Aisin water pump, OE thermostat, Koyo and NSK pulleys and Mitsobushi belt. I also have the 3 Toyota seals but did not use them since nothing was leaking. New Toyota crank bolt as well. $400 The sway bars and skid plates are currently not installed. If you want to reinstall the sway bars, new links and mounts will need to be purchased. I found that with the stiffer OME suspension, the sway bars are not only not necessary, but make the ride very harsh. I also have the OE rear upper control arms that will go with the runner. I have most of the receipts. The ones I am missing are from the orders I placed with Rock Auto for the timing kit, the ball joints and inner/outer tire rods. Im sure Im missing a few others as well. But I take my maintenance serious since I trust this vehicle to haul my wife and kids around. No corner has been cut to insure it is a safe, reliable vehicle. I have been running Pennzoil Platinum in it for the past 10,000 miles as well. PLEASE feel free to ask me any questions or if you want an image of a specific location or part. |

GM, Audi, Jaguar halt Russian sales amidst ruble's collapse
Fri, Dec 19 2014The value of Russia's ruble currency has sunk like a stone tossed in the Volga for much of the year, losing over 40 percent of its worth since June. The change is having bizarre effects on the auto industry there and leaving some automakers scrambling to adjust. According to Bloomberg, Russians are buying up luxury goods including automobiles at the moment to have a physical investment in case the ruble sinks further. However, with the money worth so little, the companies aren't making much from these transactions. Things are so dire that several automakers are temporarily ending deliveries until the situation stabilizes. According to Bloomberg, General Motors stopped sales on December 16 with no set date to start again. Audi did the same thing but with the intention to resume once it has adjusted model pricing. Jaguar Land Rover terminated business until December 19 to see how things changed. Toyota is increasing its pricing, as well, but keeping business open at the same time. Some automakers have subtly been reacting to the slumping Russian auto market all year. The moves have included Volkswagen cutting production by 30,000 units from its factory in Kaluga. Ford also got rid of 950 workers from two plants due to low demand. Some analysts have even speculated that the contracting industry and possibility of lower import duties into the country could cause companies to end their manufacturing in Russia completely.
Toyota Prius sets a different kind of Nurburgring lap record [w/video]
Tue, 15 Jul 2014Scroll down the leaderboards of Nürburgring lap times and you'll see mostly racing cars, supercars and sports cars. Delve deep enough and you'll eventually get to hatchbacks and sedans, albeit the most performance-focused of their kind. But a hybrid? Sure, the Porsche 918 Spyder posted the top time for a street-legal series production car, and it's technically a hybrid, but we're talking about another kind of hybrid here. We're talking about a Toyota Prius.
That's right: the Prius just set a lap record around the Nordschleife. But it wasn't for the lap time. In fact, miles per hour barely factored in (except for staying above the minimum 37-mph average speed mandated on the vaunted racing circuit). No, this was about miles per gallon.
Toyota took one of its Prius Plug-In hybrids to the Nürburgring, topped up the battery, put on a set of low-rolling-resistance tires and put automotive journalist Joe Clifford behind the wheel with a mandate to use as little fuel as possible. After one second shy of 21 minutes, the Prius completed its lap having used just five tablespoons of fuel.
2014 Toyota Tundra to debut at Chicago Auto Show
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The fullsize pickup market is dominated by trucks from Ford, General Motors and Ram, but this segment could get some hefty competition in coming years. We've already reported that Nissan is planning a redesign of its Titan truck for 2015, and now Toyota has announced that it will be revealing the 2014 Tundra next month at the Chicago Auto Show.
In the brief press release posted below, Toyota says that the 2014 Tundra will be "redesigned," but it's unclear as to whether this means we'll be seeing an all-new truck or just an extensive refresh. The current Tundra design has been around since 2007 and sales are hardly worrisome to the Big Three, so a new design would be a logical guess.
In any case, we only have to wait a couple more weeks for the new Tundra to debut on February 7, and we'll be on hand to bring you plenty of live coverage from the show.
