Emptypockets' 2002 Toyota 4Runner

When I was young, my dad would let me help him fix cars and work in the garage with him. We changed shocks, mufflers, oil and the occasional head gasket. Ever since then, I've been addicted to working on cars. In 2004, I bought a shiny 2002 Toyota 4Runner SR5 and I promised my wife that I wouldn't do any "fixing" on the Runner (fingers crossed of course).
