    are 96 land cruiser rims interchangeable with 96 4runner?

    thanks to everybody who replied. I was able to understand all of it. every once in a while a 4runner makes an appearance at my local salvage yard. I just have to keep stopping in there, otherwise somebody else will get them rims. much appreciated.

    aviator31, what do you mean by 'back spacing'? jp_waltz, what do you mean by 'offset'? sorry, I am not familiar with the lingo. thanks for the replies.

    are 96 land cruiser rims interchangeable with 96 4runner?

    hello, I have a set of winter tires on rims for my land cruiser. I would like to put some summer tires on rims permanently, so all I would need to do is remove the lug nuts and change the wheel, once in the spring and once in the fall so I will be prepared for the approaching season. I don't...

    my cruiser has a COMBINATION u-joint. both outer and inner clips

    my neighborhood mechanic said he could replace the u-joint for $50 and have it done in two days or less, so I have decided to let him have a go at it. he actually showed me a diagram where he takes a measurement from where the cup meets the inner clip to where the cup meets the inner clip...

    my cruiser has a COMBINATION u-joint. both outer and inner clips

    my cruiser has a COMBINATION u-joint. both outer and inner clips I hope I am able to post pics or a link to pics. this is the front propeller shaft and the u-joint is the rear joint at the transfer case. as you can see, the caps that attach to the drive shaft are outer clips and the caps...

    strange brake booster test results

    I decided to install the booster when I was told by a member at another site that he used a centric booster. it appears to be working ok. I put some 'chocks' in the yard to stop the car from moving in case the brakes didn't work and moved the car back and forth many, many times. and really put...

    strange brake booster test results

    I took apart the part of the original booster where the input shaft enters the booster. I took pictures. if the site does not allow pictures, here are links to the pics. I was hoping to find some way to exchange or adjust the shaft and/or assembly. It doesn't appear that it can easily be...

    yeah, and also there doesn't appear to be any way to adjust the length.

    strange brake booster test results

    thanks Howard 705. I took a look under the little air filter in there, hoping for a c-clip device. what they have is what I would guess is a piece of wire made out of spring steel. I don't want to take the chance of damaging anything, so I will just go with what I have. I don't want to void...

    strange brake booster test results

    more problems. I received the booster, centric 88374. I purchased it from rockauto. the rockauto part number is 16088374. the part looks great. it actually looks like it will go right in, but... THE INPUT SHAFT THAT GOES TO THE PEDAL IS A CENTIMETER SHORTER THAN THE ORIGINAL BOOSTER...

    DylanICON, yeah, I'm getting a new master cylinder too. I'll go to napa for that if they're deal is still under $100 (like they quoted). it's funny how every part that needs to be replaced on this cruiser has got to act strangely. never a clear-cut diagnosis. thanks for the reply.
