Fantastic read. Thanks so much as I had never known a radiator to leak into the stock trans cooler. That could have been bad.
I now know what I am doing after work today.

I'd be fine with this not being stickied if I could just get an answer as to WHY it's not. Can I get an answer?
I'm about to pull a Shawshank Redemption and post this question every day that I'm on here (and I work from home on the computer, so I'm on here all the time) until I get an answer.

My only guess is that the Tutorial and Documentation Sticky has the the Buyer's Guide link in it already. But if that's the reason, they should still make the Buyer's guide a sticky IMO because potential new owners aren't usually looking for info how to maintain the 4runner they haven't even bought yet. They're mostly looking for advice on what to look for - both issues and features.
