Montana Cruiser
Adventurer
The time has come to sell my well loved 4Runner. I hate to see it go, but I have other projects going and need something a bit different for driving clients around.
I have used this all over Montana and Washington on various forest service roads etc, but no hard wheeling. I have put the vast majority of the miles on traveling between Seattle and Missoula, MT. I work remotely, so I don't have a daily commute. I would not hesitate to take this on a long road trip tomorrow, and in fact just got back from MT.
Good:
Timing belt was done last year @ 236k miles, first one done at 136k miles according to first owner. (I have the records for the belt I did)
- when timing belt was done, I also had a transmission flushed and the fluids in both diffs and transfer case replaced, front rotors machined, rear pads replaced and all drive belts replaced.
Complete tune-up and Motorvac completed @ 201k miles
Front bank 02 sensor replaced last month
Nice mild lift with progressive rate springs (Performance Products coils)
New steering rack bushings (these are a common wear area that they all need replaced at some point)
Tires are Yokohama Geolanders in good shape with even wear
Aftermarket remote start and alarm (I have a new fob that will need to be programmed, broke the original one) - brand is AstroStart
Nice window tinting (keeps things cool on hot days)
Clean shape for year and mileage, definitely not perfect, but well taken care of.
All windows and door locks work as they should.
Jumper in fuse box makes the extra outlets up front and in the back always hot (can simply pull jumper and replace fuse if you would like it back to stock).
Bad:
Windshield is cracked, but its cracked low and does not interfere with seeing out, also a few chips, probably time to replace
Needs new front brake pads (pads are worn, but the rotors are in good shape)
Scratches on roof from taking a RTT on and off.
Rocker panels have chipped paint (no running boards for protection)
Valve cover seals weeping, and have the whole time I've owned it, never noticed any consumption between oil changes.
Thanks for looking, please email with any questions. I'll have better pictures up within a day or two. SOLD!
