Re: 4X4 problem
The majority of the 4Runners have part-time 4WD. You shouldn't have it in 4WD on dry pavement. The drive train will bind. Only use the 4WD under poor traction conditions.

Re: 4X4 problem
What Year is Your 4Runner?
If you have CV Joints in your front end it could be one of them gone on the Left Side. If you have a solid axle in your front end it could be a U Joint or Universal on the left side of your axel. Just my opinion. Good Luck. OzzyO

Re: 4X4 problem
Whether IFS or solid axle, it's still a CV joint. Toyota doesn't use a U-joint in the front axles.
But I vote failing CV joint also.

Re: 4X4 problem
Well it might not be a U joint but where I come from we called it a Universal in the front axle of a solid axle and a CV or Constant Velocity Joint in an IFS front end.
Sorry about the mix up. OzzyO

Re: 4X4 problem
As I said above, you are not supposed to use the vehicle in 4WD unless you are under poor traction conditions. Don't do it and you won't have the noise.
