Howdy all . Maybe I overlooked it in this thread but does anybody make a set of skids the are not made to accommodate for a front diff drop? RCI use to require a spacer but do not anymore, c4 are also made this way. Do we just have to sacrifice 1" of ground clearance to protect our undercarriage...

Over a year since the last post and still not a bolt on kit for the 4th gen? I see how it is.

Howdy. 4Runner is doing good, the transmission fluid drain and fill seems to have made an improvement. The RPMs are still inconsistent at times so that hasn't been resolved. I'm monitoring the trans temp too, hasn't gone over 163°f I'm about to do the brakes. I priced OEM (non remans) front...

Ya I misread your message yesterday. I was like, this guy, to later realize I'm that guy lol. I still appreciate it though. I managed to break the seals around the rods when I was checking stuff out. On a side note, I thought it was funny when he was saying not to lose the o rings, then said...

Thank you for this. I am referring to 4th gens so 07 falls in the category lol.

After seeing Extremewlr and LockedUp with there fj manual t-case swaps. I learned we with v8 AWD/4wd don't need the ADD front differential, I really want to go that route. Unfortunately I don't have all of the skill needed to do it myself nor the money to pay a pro shop. I'm in Apache junction...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=ovGS2nNhHmd9nXkJ&v=Iq-CusWQ1Wo&feature=youtu.be Has anyone done this with success? Unbolt the old one and bolt on a new one. The guy in this video has another video that's an hour and a half. He wound up ordering a new one that came with center locker and 4lo...

5th Gen axles vs trakmotive.... anybody? I'm leaning towards 5th gens.

Can somebody redirect me to the articulation/up travel/down travel section of this thread please, thanx in advance.

Hello. Old thread new question. I've got an 03 v8. Pretty sure my CV axles are out of grease by since being torn for so long, no clunking though. Anyway, obviously it's time for new ones. Now that trakmotive has been out for a while, has there been any significant upgrades to the boot...

Trying to resurrect this thread. It needs to be over 200 pages like the lift and suspension thread lol. I think this information is so much more important (and hard to find) than what height for what tires and how to clear 35s etc. Especially now that there are new factors to consider such as...

Just an update. Today I replaced the fan clutch and fan with new ones from Rock Auto. Definitely seems like it quieted down a bit. When I went to removed the fan clutch I found that I had three 12mm nuts and one 13mm holding it on the pulley. Also my old fan was attached to the fan clutch with...

Thank you sir.

Auseeker. I do think I'm going to go ahead and get a new fan clutch just for good measure. Should do a new serpentine belt too for good measure. Rdruss. Filter too?
