need Help guys.....my 90 has been sabotaged.

[farrk007]

i'm not sure who wants me dead or hates my truck but someone took off all 6 lugs off my driver side front wheel last nite while i was at work and i got in the vehicle to drive home and needless to say i did not make it far!!! it was more shocking than scary! watching my wheel bounce off and fly down the street as the axle cam grinding while i came to a slow stop.

The front flare is ripped off and so is the black end piece that connects the running board to the fender and i need to get six new bolts.

please tell me a good source that would likely have them on-hand as i need that truck back on the road yesterday, I'm in chicago but i'll soure from an online vendor if they come recommended.

Thank God nobody got hurt......buti cant help but be ticked that it had to happen at all.

Thanks again guys for your input

Sad news, but I'm glad to hear you're OK. Junk yards that have 90 series Prado parts are mostly located in New Zealand, Australia and Asia. If you're in the USA, you're probably going to get cheaper prices and shipping from Colombia (a lot closer) where the 90 series are still being made and sold, so it might be easy to buty replacement parts directly at the dealership. Send a PM to user FloridaFJ80 he lives in Colombia, owns a 90 series and might be able to point you in the right direction.

Good luck, and again glad nobody got hurt.

Thank you guys sooo much for the response.and for restoring my hope in this forum, i was really begining to lose hope.
But as my luck would have it....i used car-part.com and was able to souce out a fender here locally and your not going to believe my luck, the darn thing was white as well!!! same colour as my rig. so i put that back on and just sent her to the mechanic to check out the suspension and fix the coolant pipes which though severly rusted must have cracked during impact and thats now leaking coolant over the cats.they will fix that and i'll be back on the road shortly.
Thank you guys so much.....and i'll definitely take you up on that offer "floridaFj80" if i need something in the future.

Thanx again.

Do check security (CCTV) footages of the parking lot to find the culprit this is a serious issue
