Car Forum / Toyota / Toyota Trucks / June 2006Yet another 4runner question
Regarding the older 4runners with removable tops . . . is there some sort of wiring harness that you have to disconnect for the rear wiper blade? I should have asked, do you have to disconnect a wiring harness when you remove the top? Sorry. donno...@gmail.com wrote: > Regarding the older 4runners with removable tops . . . is there some > sort of wiring harness that you have to disconnect for the rear wiper > blade? Yes. It's easy. Lift the top a bit, unplug it, take it off. >I should have asked, do you have to disconnect a wiring harness when > you remove the top? Sorry.

Yeah, 16 bolts and two plugs should get the top off. Make sure you dont damage the seal as they will leak when ya put it back on if the seals stuffed, mind you it will leak more it you leave the top off ;o) Dont forget to keep all the plastic bolt covers secure away so ya dont loose em. Oh and DONT BYPASS the REAR WINDOW switch that stops the window from going up as if ya do that when the tops down kiss ya rear screen goodbye Great! Now if I can just find one of these babys for less than the price of gold. I saw a 1989 4 runner sell on ebay last night for darn near $5,000 . . . wow! When I get one, I'm thinking about painting it a color combination similar to the new FJ Cruiser . . . Voodoo Blue with the removable top being white. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:BlueFJCruiser.jpg > > Regarding the older 4runners with removable tops . . . is there some > > sort of wiring harness that you have to disconnect for the rear wiper [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Oh and DONT BYPASS the REAR WINDOW switch that stops the window from going > up as if ya do that when the tops down kiss ya rear screen goodbye Hey! Sounds like a great project. Better yet - find on with a turbo hanging in it! I'd go for the Black Cherry Pearl myself. Bill > Great!

[quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > > > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:BlueFJCruiser.jpg Hey! Thought the removable top 4runners stopped in 88. Got an 86 pickup here with a 4banger and a turbo. Fair on gas when your nice to it but got some get up and go when you need it. I just hate those 6 cylinder motors here in california. Seems like toyota was trying to discover how to detune a motor to the best of their ability. Now that's a good idea. Paint my truck and camper shell like an FJ with Black Cherry Pearl on the bottom and maybe a lighter Metallic Black Cherry on the top or vice versa. Bill > Can you tell a big difference in the turbo? Yes you can on a 4 cylinder motor. >> Hey! >> Sounds like a great project. [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >> > >> > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:BlueFJCruiser.jpg > Great!

If so then buy an Ex Japanese unit, should get one of those shipped to US for nix. Better still find someone who has access to one and wants a chev engine or something from the US and swap em. >> Great! Now if I can just find one of these babys for less than the >> price of gold.

Just looking at what the shipping is . New Zealand (Very cheap cars) to US around $2200 NZD = $1340 USD. Add that to the purchase price of about $4k (NZD) for a 89 model with alloys bars etc and your away laughing. If you can buy two from Jappan and put both in the same container your getting away with stuff all freight per vehicle. Off road the RHD compared to LHD will be insignificant. Parts would be the same from LHD or RHD for most that you would need off road. For an exersise try www.trade-exchange.co.nz and search for "surf" (Jap 4runner) > Great!

Is it that solid front axle or something? -jeff Not sure. Just in very good condition. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Toyota-4Runner-1988-4Runner-4X4-5-Speed-Removable -Top-Excellent-Cond_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6442QQihZ002QQitemZ4651272301QQrd Z1 > > Great!
