Hello,</div>
Lets talk about parts that need to be periodically replaced such as a water pump (after 100K miles...).</div>
Please leavesuspension parts such as bushingto another Thread.</div>
Lets start with a generic discussion what and then probably focus on Toyotas for a change? http://www.4wdtrips.net/forum/emoticons/eyes.gif </div>
Just kidding we can keep adding the list here. Toyotas, Jeeps, Izusus, GMC ...</div>
Scott and GoodTimes are really good on starting the tech talk. Then SteveS and BajaTaco develop it even more as usual.</div>
OK, tell us what should we be on the lookout? </div>
Parts that safety related. Fuel hoses?</div>
What to inspect after a trip. Before a trip?</div>
Replace parts that are known to were out. How often?</div>
OEM/ Factoryvs. Generic. What should we get?</div>
Thanks,</div>

Jack, buy yourself a Haynes manual (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1563923807/qid=1078286801/sr=1-3/ref=sr_1_3/002-1686619-3077648?v=glance&amp;s=books) for your for 4Runner. There is a great list of scheduled maintenance and inspection items in there.

Guess what, I have one.
But for what I remember it seems weak. It try to have lots of Toyota on the same volume. Some of the pictures did not match my 4Runner.
I will check the list of recommendations.
Thanks,
