Did you use a scan tool to figure out why the check engine light was flashing? I would also check to see if some woodland critter didn't decide to make your resting runner a home for that month period and chew through your wires. :sobbing:
I have a squeak/clicking in reverse when pushing on the gas. Everyone I spoke to says it's definitely a u-joint. I took the driveshaft down last night and the D.C. moves freely in one direction but not the other. I took it to my local axel shop and they are going to take a look at it tomorrow...
Yes and I think I have narrowed mine down to bad shocks in the front end. My XREAS system is dead and the truck bounced like an old cadillac. Somewhere in that thread I read someone suggested that because the shock is not holding the tire down to the road it causes the steering wheel to shake. I...
I just found a craigslist post for a full 2017 4Runner suspension take off for $500 in my area. Looks to be front and rear springs and shocks/struts plus all hardware. From what I see in this thread it appears everything a direct swap over? I am looking to replace my XREAS and move over to a...
I have Thule crossroads which attach to the side rails and then whatever length loadbars you want. Craigslist is your best bet. I can carry 3 kayaks on my roof with my various cradles and saddles.
Thanks for the reply and for saving me the $350. I haven't lifted any trucks since my '02 and am a bit out of the loop. Since my truck has 150K I am thinking the best option is just pull the xreas suspension out and convert to new springs and 5100 shocks. I don't want to open a can of worms and...
I'm interested in if this was the same setup you went with....? https://newjersey.craigslist.org/pts/d/trd-toyota-tacoma-off-road/6201655193.html I have an '04 Sport with xreas that is totally shot. Front end bounces all over and steering shakes. Would this be worth the purchase and a direct...
I'm not too happy with mine. I have a vibration around 65/70 that shakes the whole front end. Tried balancing them multiple times but to no avail. Seems that a belt shifted in the tire even though I am not aggressive with my tires. Wet roads they spin and break traction rather easy. Don't think...
I thought during idle the alternator is putting back what the accessories are using? Especially after the draw the startup takes away. Idle is normal and seems ok. Battery is only a few years old and connections seem good. I know electrical problems are like poltergeist and no two are the same...
Quick question and yes I used the search function haha
2002 Runner with about 178k on it. When im at a traffic light or stopped at night with my headlights on at night I can see that my headlights are not as bright as usual. Only slightly noticeable until i put my foot on the gas and they...
