A video providing food for thought on how one might go about repairing the rotted frame of a 2000 4Runner, Gen3.
After replacing all 4 of the brakes, front struts, springs, brake master cylinder, headlights, wind shield, and most costly a new crated transmission, the frame gave way. In general I had a choice of fixing the frame, or sending a relatively good (and now expensive) truck to the junk yard. . . I took the option of doing what I can to keep it on the road.
As stated in the video, this is NOT a welding tutorial. Matter of fact, I do not know how to weld. It's basically learn as I go. The metal I used is WAY over-kill. I likely added 80 pounds of steel to my ride when said and done (both sides). So I do invite constructive feedback that will help the community as a whole; telling me that my welding stinks will not provide any value.
Last note I will make. If you have a 4Runner north of 150k miles and have not changed the radiator yet, park it, and buy yourself a radiator NOW. The tranny cooler will brake in the radiator causing fluids to mix, and you WILL lose your tranny regardless of how many times you flush it (I did 6 times!). Radiator = $125. Tranny+Radiator=$3450
I hope this video helps, I thought it was about time I give back to all of those that helped me with this 4Runner.
