94 4Runner: She Rolls Now! (Axles and Wheels Installed!) (08/11/11)
Well, despite my stitches, i worked on the 4runner. im stubborn as frig haha!
I did it all without lifting too! not bad. I got the rear axle under the springs, installed the ubolts, then jacked it up and bolted the tires on! awesome!
I have a seized caliper on the back though... So i have a few little things i need to do. Gotta move the spring hangers forward about 5" as well to center the axle and line up the shock tabs!
Thanks for Watching!

2004 Toyota 4Runner Transmission Fluid and Filter Change (Part 1) -EricTheCarGuy

To be honest if I were to do this job again I would just change the fluid and leave the filter alone. It's much less of a headache and you won't have to worry about the Exhaust which would be the most challenging part in my opinion. Aside from that it's not likely a filter change will have any real benefit since it's a closed system. In addition there is some speculation as to what the service interval actually is for the transmission fluid and filter is. Lastly be sure that you have some sort of pump to get the fluid into the transmission before you get started because as I show in the video there is no dip stick for this transmission that you can fill through. You also need to be sure to use the proper fluid, I've got my fingers crossed that the MaxLife that I used will hold up fine, so far it's been about 2 months since I shot this video and it seems to be fine. In all it's not a bad job there are just specific procedures that need to be followed to be successful with it.
Stay dirty

Vegas 4x4 Trail, Jeep-N-Trip to the Colorado River
On a cool and cloudy day we took a friend out for his first dirt road and rock climbing trip. Had some unexpected "Wet" weather along the way as we drove down the Fire Mountain Cove Trail and then to a small little mining town out in the middle of no where called Nelson.
4runner rollover recovery
Subscribe! Found a guy named Alex who had just rolled his 4runner several times down a hill at Hollister SVRA. The truck is totalled, but he's OK. His brother was riding with him and hurt his leg, but should be OK too. The rangers were very helpful. Surprisingly, the door still opened once we got it right side up!
