Does anybody know if this knocking sound will cause any future problems or if it is simply a noise and nothing more?

I don’t think it’s any kind of serious issue...more of just a characteristic of the fox shocks with the particular tuning. I don’t do any serious off roading however. My off roading is limited to the beaches around where I live. If I lived out west and had access to all the great trails out there, I’d be more concerned. I don’t think dealerships make much money doing TSB repairs. Toyota pays them a minimal amount compared to what they would charge you to do a similar repair. So, unless you bought the vehicle at the dealership or are a good repeat customer and they want to go out of their way to make you happy, or your 4Runner is making A LOT of noise and your issue is blatantly obvious, they are gonna blow you off and give you the ole “could not duplicate” excuse. I’ll post an update after I bring mine in later this month.
