    Another LED swap Q

    I know this has been discussed to death, but even after wading through 30 pages of threads I'm still having a little trouble figuring out what I need to do a LED swap. I have a 99 Limited and I think this list is pretty complete (pulled from another thread). Just looking for some input about...

    WHAT ARE THE FAST THAT A 4RUNNER CAN GO ?(higher velocity)

    I've hit 110 a few times (downhill)- less often than I take it up to 100 or so. It's all about choosing where to speed. I work in the middle of nowhere in NW Colorado and have gone stretches of close to 100 miles without seeing another car. Never seen a hwy patrol or even a regular cop within...

    Anyone off-road by themself?

    Yep I've done it. My most interesting experience- got stuck in some snow that was on the trail, couldn't get out no matter what I tried. Literally 10 minutes after I get stuck the wind picks up and it starts dumping snow and I'm already thinking about what I need to do to stay the night. Once...

    How to: Changing fog lamps on 3rd gen stock fogs

    Nice guide. I had to figure this out by myself a few weeks ago. However, instead of completely removing the light assemblies, I just got under the car and took off the 3 little screws, removing the bottom cover and followed the same process after that. Actually, it was a little harder than...

    Longest trip with your 4R?

    Actually in the middle of my longest 4R trip right now. Chicago-> Browns Park in NW Colorado right near the Utah border (1300 miles) via Iowa, Nebraska, Wyoming. Got to enjoy some nice snow-covered passes today, but didn't get a chance to snap any pics. Today more than made up for yesterday's...

    Who's Lovin' the East Coast Snow?

    The thing about Buffalo is that they receive a lot of snow every year and have come to expect it (check out the Blizzard of 77). I think they also use more 'Canadian' methods of snow removal. There's a small article here about Buffalo. We got a pretty good storm here in NE IL yesterday...

    What nationality are you ? Anyone famous in family ?

    American by nationality, nearly all Polish by ancestry. I actually went to Poland in December and found church baptismal records of my great-grandfathers and another relative back to the early 1800's- cool stuff. No one famous in the family (yet!)

    are there any other young people on here?

    Despite my name, I'm 18. 1st car was a 97 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport that I paid for. Sold it and my parents paid for my 4runner but I'll probably end up buying it from them after college.

    My day off in West Chicagoland.

    Sure seems like it. I'm loving all this snow though ;):

    Jerry/Gas Can Mount 3rd Gen

    This may have been answered before, but I didn't see it when I searched. I'd like to keep about 5 extra gallons of gas with me as I'll be living and working in a remote area of Colorado. I have a 99 Limited with just the stock roof rack and I'd prefer to keep the gas outside of the car. Where...

    New 99 Limited Owner in IL

    What size headunit is your Pioneer? Double or single DIN? I'm looking to put in a new radio and a subwoofer as well. I'm in Lake Forest, though I'll be working in a wildlife refuge in NW Colorado for the next few months, and I'm trying to get this car ready for the big drive out there in just...

    New 99 Limited Owner in IL

    Hi all, Been lurking around this forum for a while doing some research while looking at new vehicles. Finally bought a 99 Limited 4wd w/rear diff lock with just barely under 100k miles and I figured I'd introduce myself. This is a big upgrade comfort-wise from my 97 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport...

    Sorry to beat a dead topic, led interior question

    Hi guys, thinking about doing this in my 99 Limited w/ electronic climate control. Can anyone tell me if I need #74 bulbs and if so how many for the climate control? Also, can the light behind the clock be changed out (and what bulb)?
