I have the 2003 Toyota 4Runner SR5 Sport edition with the V6. We have over 300,000 miles on it. We just need to get some paint work done, because the fenders paint is worn out, due to lots of car washes. We love our 4Runner and the V6 has plenty of power.
Nice video, I highly recommend replacing all interior lights with LED bulbs. The difference in the amount of light is phenomenal and, of course, the draw on the battery goes way down.
Man I really appreciate the time you put into to making these videos. I have always thought 4Runner builds are badass. Your exhaust videos are the best ones on TH-cam, and you made my mind up on what exhaust I should get for my v6 09 tacoma. In turn you earned yourself a sub. Keep them vids coming.
the dude i bought my 04 must have been a fan of your channel - i got it built up almost identically to yours! thought it was actually the same one until i saw you had fabric seats rather than leather. nice build for sure though! love the 04
Nice 4Runner man!!! Can you please do a video on how you wired the dual USB port? I have a 2004 4Runner and I can’t figure out how to wire it. Thanks!!!

Heya. I have a 2006 Toyota 4runner with 275k miles on the chassis and frame, and 171k on the engine, transmission, and drivetrain (2007 parts). My engine has the check engine light, VSC Off, VSC TRAC, and traction control light lit up like a Christmas tree on my dash. Also, at very low speeds and at low throttle, this sound from exhaust (I don't know if my cats are shot) is like a high-pitched rattling sound, NOT like a rock bouncing around on youtube videos you'd look up online about shot cats. My O2 sensors are all new and have been replaced WITH spacers on them. I took my car to the local automotive shop, they said to fix this they would need to mess with the exhaust, put new O2 sensors on and take the spacers off, then diagnose from there to see what's wrong. It's going to be expensive from them... I also am wanting to do this myself... I have a mechanic friend that told me that my cats need to be replaced but I'm not so sure it's the problem just yet... Any suggestions?
Go Blue Raiders - a graduate from there myself! :-} LIve in Nashville and drive an 04 SR5 - Never going to sell it. She is just getting broken in at 150K. Have the same radio too LOL
Great video. You mentioned you are going to be switching to an Ikon liftkit? Just curious why? I have a Rough Country on my Suburban and I love it! Also, how many miles are on your 4Runner?
Honestly the rough country kit is awesome and I've had mine for about 4 years. The front end is a little tight. When I go to replace struts I will probably go with an Icon adjustable strut and total chaos fab upper/lower control arms. This should get rid of the extra preload and travel loss, the rough country spacers cause. And 177,600 miles on her. Hope that answers your question
Great video, i have a quick question. Could you play music through usb audio jack without using the pioneer built in screen? I just got a 2004 4runner and right now i don’t have the money to buy the pioneer screen. And i’m trying to find a way to charger my phone and listen to music because the cigarette lighter don’t work.
looks great, really is inspiring for my 4th gen sport edition i purchased 2 months ago. Will definitely be referring to this when I start mt mods. Questions: what kind of faint did you use on your wheels? where did you fin your black plastic pieces on your rack ? and are their any advantages to the front brush guard compared to a aftermarket number other than that fact that the brush guard looks a lot better? Im going to sub and keep an eye out for your vids thanks
Zach Harper the black rack caps are stock on non sport sr5 models. The paint on the wheels are an enamel engine paint however I have since painted them a matte stone grey. I hope to give an update potentially on those. In preference to a brush guard vs bumper, I like the looks of the brush guard better. As fas as pros and cons with the guard you loose some approach angle and you cant mount a winch, not to mention there is little to no crash protection other than small animals and parking misshaps. On the pro side there is far less weight your front end has to lug around, less cost, and also removability in the event of trade or any need to make it stock again. I have also looked into a low pro hidden winch mount and that way I can keep the guard and have a winch. I have found that as it sits, the approach angle with the guard is close to the same as the break over angle. So what I am able to go up I can almost guarantee I wont scrape anywhere else. It keeps me in check haha.
Stock UCAs, no spacers, and with the nittos there was a little rub on the UCAs and the frame in front of the cabin. I plan to get a set of total chaos fab UCA kit for a little extra articulation.
sorry to be so offtopic but does anyone know a tool to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow forgot the password. I love any tricks you can give me!
@Rohan Gunner thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I did take it through a couple times, but mainly I hand washed it. If seen the last video(most recent) of the 4runner you’ll see I had more than a backup camera to worry about haha. Thanks for the comment!
Arley López there are a couple great things that you loose when you go to the 5th gen that I’ve noticed. One big one is turning radius. The other is optional equipment. If you can find a well equipped limited 4th gen, that’s the way to go. Modern vehicles just nickel and dime you for rudimentary options. There are also a bunch of cool quirks about the 4th gens that people who have them learn to love. An example is the fold out “tray” that is in the center console. or the way the bezel on the back of the center console is meant to hold a trash bag. These are some of the many reasons that I am holding on to my 4th gen. The new ones sure look nice though!
@@thelimahotel6874 I'm looking to buy a 4runner either 4th gen or 5th gen Which one should I get and what should I look for? Does the center diff help for off roading?
Joshua Jay like my response to Arlen, the 4th gens are an incredible deal. I use the center locker quite often just to insure even traction. I would say that it does in fact make a difference having driven vehicles without center diff lockers. It makes the vehicle feel more predictable. Both ATRAC systems on either generation are fantastic with minor changes made into the 5th gen, with the most radical of which being crawl control and a terrain management system. You don’t necessarily need those to have a good day on the trail. Late 3rd and 4th gen ATRACs are plenty capable and will get you slightly closer to F/R diff lock performance, without sacrificing maneuverability. Long response but I hope that helps you out!
@@thelimahotel6874 it helps alot!! Where's the best place to look for a used runner? What should I look for? Do they make the 4th gen sport edition in a v6?
eBike Photographer none that I’ve noticed. I think that it’s just the right distance from the crown of the windshield so that most of the air goes over the top.
Our son recently purchased his first auto, a 2004 4Runner in excellent condition! This past week with our rain, he found water on front drivers side. No crack in the windshield. No water spots on interior ceiling around sunroof. Seals around the doors intact. We noticed the windshield isn't original Toyota. We poured water on the windshield and monitored for inside leak, none! Any suggestions what more we can assess before taking to a dealership and have them assess? Thanks for your videos.
@@thelimahotel6874 It was on the floor, drivers side only. He didnt discover till vacuuming after he pulled up floor mats. We didnt see any water come inside while we spent 15 minutes of watering the windshield... can it be a bad seal from when the windshield was replaced, we dont know when it was done. Thank you.
U have a super cool antenna. I like it!! I have a cobra CB from Walmart. Do u think that antenna will work? Did you have to calibrate your CB with the antenna? Thanks
I have one more question for you man and sorry for all the questions and do you think I could take my 4Runner to a paint shop and have them paint the rims.
spencer cupit some changes have been made since this video was purchased, mainly in the front. As you see it there it is a Rough Country 3” lift with their rear shocks. Since the video, I have replaced the front struts with a pair meant for a 2019 Tacoma. It leveled it out more than what’s in this video. With the Tacoma struts it sits at about 3inches In the rear and about 4 or so in the front, I hope to have a video soon updating everything.
Actually this is my final question I promise so after you do everything to the wheels and then u paint them black does the paint come off or will it stay permanently
Nice vid. I'm trying to find out how to wire the traction control turn-off. I've seen a few videos where people could turn off the traction control, but then they'd have dash lights on. I'd like to be able to turn off traction control on my 2005 SR5 4Runner. Silver like yours. I put in Bilstein struts and shocks with the 1.75 lift in the front and then I put on Toyo MT tires( 255/75/R17) and I have no rubbing. That came out to a 3 inch lift for me. Please help me find instructions on doing the traction control turn off. That would be a major help. Also, putting the TRD sticker on is pretty cool. Nice job
So the instructions of how to do it are simple. All you do is locate the front of the break booster. There are two grey connectors on the lower right side. You are going to be disconnecting the smaller one on top. Once you have disconnected the plug you are going to be cutting the only red wire. You can use smaller 16ga wirw or some speaker wire and you are going to just connect 2 separate wires to both the wire running to the plug, and one from the rest of the harness. You then run those wires through the fire wall and into a standard on/off switch
AnotherDave If I could find a warmer color led to use for the fog lights, I would probably switch to LED. Most options that fit those projector fog lights are 5.5-6.5K in color which refracts light in fog. Hence why I am sticking with the warmer color halogen bulbs which don’t refract as much light back towards you in dense fog. In many aspects I am more about function over form. If you have a bulb suggestion, I would love for you to send it my way. I haven’t had much luck finding what will work with protectors. I believe by best option for LEDs would be using a colored plastic film over the lenses. But I’m not sold on the look of that. Thanks for the comment!
Miguel Salami I’ve always fallen in love with the 3rd gens. They are just timeless. I’ve always liked all of the creature comforts of the 4th gens though.
@@thelimahotel6874 You are very correct for off road 3rd gen for dd street & trails in comfort your 4th gen wins hands down. But with 363,000 on my 97 I just can't let her go she's Been too faithful. I was joking about the running boards btw.👍👍
Smoke Stack no, I have not. It seems that it happens a lot with this year though. I don’t live in a norther state so corrosion isn’t much of a problem for me.
Lima Hotel ...Thanks for the reply, I have a 2007, identical to yours. On my 3rd caliper change over, front and rear. To be honest, It’s the only problem I have had with my 4Runner. Not too happy about it but I can live with it, no reason to get rid of a perfectly reliable vehicle.
Zr2 Chris I’ve had it on for nearly 5 years and have plowed dirt and pushed mature trees with it time and time again. No damage to speak of. Unlike other brands, mine is fully supported with both the lower frame mount as as well as upper support bars that run through to the upper subframe. This design is similar to how Setina push bars are mounted. I have also use it to push vehicles out of the mud and snow. No damage. It’s very beefy unlike other “eBay” branded brush guards. Definitely did consider this as many of my friends that had them had caused damage to their vehicles when the bar hinges into their bumper. I did quite a bit of research before selecting the one I went with. Not necessarily base on brand but the way it was structured
Not very hard you just purchase the dash kit which can be found on Amazon' ,then for the wiring harness you buy the"Metra 70-1761 Radio Wiring Harness For Toyota 87-Up Power 4 Speaker" on Amazon.

Miguel Salami I’ve always fallen in love with the 3rd gens. They are just timeless. I’ve always liked all of the creature comforts of the 4th gens though.
@@thelimahotel6874 You are very correct for off road 3rd gen for dd street & trails in comfort your 4th gen wins hands down.
But with 363,000 on my 97 I just can't let her go she's Been too faithful.
I was joking about the running boards btw.👍👍
Where did you get the black thing for the Toyota sign on the back door
Check the description. It’s the same link as the “FJ 40 style” ones. Both are CNC aluminum and enamel painted
Hey man if I one more question for you, what kind of lights can I put on the brush guard besides the light bar
Beast Berman you can put any lights you want doesn’t have to be a light bar.
The Lima Hotel can I put 5 inch kc lights
Beast Berman yes
Did you have to deal with any frozen calipers yet?
Smoke Stack no, I have not. It seems that it happens a lot with this year though. I don’t live in a norther state so corrosion isn’t much of a problem for me.
Lima Hotel ...Thanks for the reply, I have a 2007, identical to yours. On my 3rd caliper change over, front and rear.
To be honest, It’s the only problem I have had with my 4Runner. Not too happy about it but I can live with it, no reason to get rid of a perfectly reliable vehicle.
how to custom made your LED BAR top mount?
what size are your sport edition wheels
Sean Berman 17”
The Lima Hotel can i put sport edition wheels in Michelin tires
Let me know if you will ever sell that car
That brush guard is going to destroy your front end if you tap anything on the trail
Zr2 Chris I’ve had it on for nearly 5 years and have plowed dirt and pushed mature trees with it time and time again. No damage to speak of. Unlike other brands, mine is fully supported with both the lower frame mount as as well as upper support bars that run through to the upper subframe. This design is similar to how Setina push bars are mounted. I have also use it to push vehicles out of the mud and snow. No damage. It’s very beefy unlike other “eBay” branded brush guards. Definitely did consider this as many of my friends that had them had caused damage to their vehicles when the bar hinges into their bumper. I did quite a bit of research before selecting the one I went with. Not necessarily base on brand but the way it was structured
How many miles and how much you paid for ? Thank you.
MK ULTRA not sure at the time of the video but around 193,000 now
How did you paint your rims without them peeling
Beast Berman good prep cleaning, good sanding, good primer, and many light coats of base coat
Yo what’s the app for the touch screen radio for the custom background I have yet to figure that out
Christopher Threadgill it isn’t an app. You just use a flash drive to save a photo and then upload using the USB port on the radio.
The Lima Hotel ohhh okay thank you!
Actually this is my very last final question is there anyway I can buy that brush guard and put it on without lifting
Beast Berman Yes, you don’t have to have a lift to have the brush guard. There are several companies who make them.
And I have one more question where did u get the switch for the led light bar
what size light bar can i use besides a 25 inch for the brush guard
Beast Berman that’s about the biggest you can use
How difficult was it to install the radio?
Not very hard you just purchase the dash kit which can be found on Amazon' ,then for the wiring harness you buy the"Metra 70-1761 Radio Wiring Harness For Toyota 87-Up Power 4 Speaker" on Amazon.
Lost me at the 50th “um and uh”
I’m in Knoxville Tennessee
I have the same scent stick
I go to MT too lol

Beast Berman watch my newest video
