    200k+ mile xr club

    Good idea. They are pretty easy jobs if you are thinking of DIY. Id recommend swapping the trans fluid for Redline MT90

    Looking to buy a X-Runner

    Heres some pics from the dealer. 2012 with 95k, always dealer maintained. From what I can see, pretty much bone stock besides LED headlight and fog light bulbs, and tonneau cover. Hes getting it for 22k which is not cheap but from what we have been seeing for prices, is not bad for this truck...

    Looking to buy a X-Runner

    Well, he sold the 4runner a couple days ago and the other day a 2012 X-Runner popped up for sale in Chicago. Apparently it spent the first few years of its life being driven about 300 miles per year in North NJ. But anyway, we are flying out there on Thursday and cannonballing home the 13 hour...

    Only thing im not crazy about with the spec is that it has some noise on engagement from a stop. Its not as bad when it warms up but still a little annoying. I ended up making a clock with the pressure plate from the old URD clutch lol

    Thanks dude! I wish the paint and body work was a little better but unless you look really close, it does present pretty well

    Last week I braved the 20* temps and installed my old Doug Thorley long tubes on the red truck. Not sure how I got lucky enough to get all the original 241k mile manifold nuts off in one piece

    Got the Spec U headers installed on the black truck today. So it now has the full spec u system and it sounds great! Ill install my old Doug Thorley long tubes on the red truck another day.

    Saw URD had the spec U headers back in stock and had to grab them. These will be going onto the black truck so that will have full spec U exhaust. The old doug thorley long tubes that are currently on it, will most likely find their way onto the red truck
