97 4Runner..problems starting
From time to time, the truck will not start. Just a click and that's it. Trying again usually does it.
I checked the starter wires for corrosion, but they look fine.
Any idea what it might be?

It is the starter, search around for topics and your questions will be anwsered.
It is a fairly regular topic around here, I have replaced mine, but the part was on backorder and took a few days.

Usually quite easy to replace the copper contacts inside the starter solenoid. That is usually the cause of the "click":
