I’m back after having a 14 4Runner, can’t wait to pick it up - I missed my old 2000 100, glad to be back with this 2003. Has OME Shocks but was not sure if a kit or just shocks - time to read up again.
Yes, current value is negotiated just as all used vehicles. Again, unless your policy is worded specific, most are maket value. State laws differ as well.
I just recently purchased a 2008 TT. I have run both 87 and 91. I would highly recommend the 91 if going up grades or pulling anything- Colorado so we have lots of grades. On the flats there is no huge difference.
Now that I changed the plugs I will run a tank of each and check mileage, but...
Before I take it out, anyone ran accross a loose drivers seat? So I know what to look for.
-
The 4 bolts that fasten the seat are tight.
When I am on a rough road, I noticed the drivers seat sort of rocked near the arm rest.
If I try to move it, the rails are tight, but the seat itself rocks...
It tows fine. It does not tow as well as a 100, but it works. When fully loaded, watch for bumps on turns and be prepared. My pop up does not come close to the 5K limit nor would I be comfortable towing 5K with and FJ.
Uggg internet searching.
Pre 2010, it was not an option.
So why the blue harness? Guess I'll have to get the switch and find out.
Not sure how often I will play spin the FJ, but was curious.
First real off road trip, wow does this thing wheel. First impression is that I am not used to a smaller wheel base, but this rig makes obstacles seem like regular road. Approach angle and departure are way more than I have had in the past. Took the same roads in my 100, and it was almost night...
So far my opinion is that it's way too cool for me, I think I am more of a 4Runner type.
It is very spunky for a rock vehicle, it takes off quick and the throaty growl of the TRD CAI plus the exhaust makes it that much more fun.
First repair. Could not find this anywhere on the web. Rear window would not open, fuses All good, took rear panel off and checked all wires, all good. The smallest of clips holds the actuator wires to the lock set. It was barely hanging on. Taped that thing on in the photo. I would bet this...
Complete regret selling my 100, but at the time it was a financial thing.
Picked up a always wanted FJ.

Has what I thought was a level kit - front only , need to search to find measurements to see if there is a lift in the springs.
Mods: er, not yet...
Glad to hear all ok and super glad "The Black Pearl" saved everyone.
And you got those pesky scratch marks on the rear fixed I presume.
Dang she is still beautiful if I do say so myself (insert sellers remorse here)
*Only replaced when they failed. They do seem to give a little notice prior to complete failure from my experience. Both very slight sputter and very slight performance lag, or lack of total power. The first time it went much faster. The second time, I was able to drive several hundred miles...
