To me, that’s a reasonable price and from what I’ve searched, that is a good engine. I do prefer manual hub locks over the electric switch. I would like to see more pics of the frame and underside.
Thanks guys, I adjusted it down with a longer bolt and dialed it in better (brakes are nice and even, rear isn’t locking hard). I will look into placing it back on the axle later since I cut the rod. I can weld it back, no time today.
Thanks for the advice, I just tested it and the rears definitely lock up under hard stops. I don’t think too early but I’ll adjust and bring it down some. The axle mount is way too low though.
I replaced front/rear rotors and pads 2.5yrs ago, a month ago I replaced the worn front pads, the rear pads were like new. I think the 73 series has a light rear and with a lift, the axle is even higher, moving the LSPV rod lower and closing the flow to the rear calipers. If I didn’t do this...

I also installed an Ironman4x4America lift on my Hzj73. I bought this at the end of year sale and finally installed it. I had to cut 3 of 4 rusty shackle pins to get the the old leafs out. Thanks @OTRAMM for advice on using a cut-off wheel instead of a sawzall to cut them, that saved me a lot of...
I agree with @iptman , keep the 4runner, it’s a good truck! A couple weeks ago, I installed an Ironman4x4America lift on my friend’s 5th gen and it made me want to get one (far future).
I have a versatube carport shelter for sale. $2500. I was originally going to use this but decided to stick build my workshop. If I had more space on my property, I would still use it but I don’t.
This exact model in charcoal...
