    I had 4 of these 3rd Gens, if u are in a tight budget, the Rough Country 3" lift with complete shocks did amazing and didnt let me down! Pair em with some freedom off road UCAs and it was a beast off road. Nothing like going fast on the desert suspension but great for camping trips and some off road fun!

    Couple things that may help with daily drivability:
    Lower ball joints
    Tundra Brake Upgrade
    Honda windshield nozzle mod
    Apple Carplay Headunit
    Headlight projector retrofit
    Andys Mod 2 Trac off button
    I have a couple vids on my channel when i had a 2001 3rd gen as well.

    • @benchattin
      @benchattin 3 місяці тому +1

      @santipedros6908 Yep, still doing good. Bought it from the original owner at 302k. Completely rust free. Only unexpected things I've done to it is replaced the original radiator, new battery, and front u-joint. Did brakes all around, tires, and rear shocks when I first got it. Make sure to ask about the timing belt and water pump. Those are recommended to be replaced every 100k, and if you're getting a shop to do the work it may run you $1,000 or more.

      @@DLCRMedia i would argue its better, not to sound like a prick but im a tall guy and it can get kind of uncomfortable sitting because of the way they designed the sitting position, i like to think of it like a cockpit in a plane feeling, you are kind of locked in, the opposite of like a 2015 Chevy where its like a bus seat and you can basically move around all you want

    Gotta remember, back then SUVs were a new idea. It's basically a pickup with a big cab on top. They handle accordingly. Some people like that, some don't.
    A good daily p/u will get you 200k+ with a medium amount of TLC.
    The problem is, now you have to have passengers.....

      I’m getting 18-20ish also on my ‘02. I use marvel mystery oil in the gas tank so maybe that could be the difference? 12-13 seems too low so maybe check that out. I also replaced the fuel filter a few years back. Good video, enjoy your 4Runner!
