    Rattling plate - Brake calliper.

    Hi guys, Driving today and noticed a rattle as I went over bumps. Pin pointed it to a small plate situated on the leading side of the front right brake calliper. See picture. What is it? I can push the hook looking end back in and over the little bar but it just pops back out. Brakes are...

    Stock radio replacement - Everything fits except this one thing.

    Hi guys, Back again. So I successfully installed new front speaker's, tweeters and head unit. Speakers were a breeze. But I had one problem with the head unit. When I unplugged the stock radio, there was a power cable, the harness plug and one other small silver plug. It was plugged in...

    Stock speakers glued to mounts. :(

    Yeah that's how I did the harness for the head unit, but I was using 16-18 gauge butt crimps. So I'll just cut the existing speaker wires, and crimp them to the new ones. Need to buy some much smaller butt crimps. Any idea which color is positive and negative? I'm used to black and red, this...

    Stock speakers glued to mounts. :(

    Thanks 3rzrunner, I just had another look at it and attacked it with a butter knife and some elbow grease. The old wires are soldered on, I don't have a soldering iron, is there any other way to attach the speaker wires?

    Stock speakers glued to mounts. :(

    Hi guys, So I watched a bunch of walk throughs, studied the whole speaker upgrade process, got the door cards off great, but when I got to removing the speaker, I found its been glued to the mount. Is this normal? What am I supposed to do here? My new speakers will mount on to the old mount...

    Boiling noise after hill climb.

    Hi guys, Took the truck out for a spin today, on some logging roads around Squamish BC. Couple of step sections, climbing constantly for about 30 mins, stopped to check the view, when I turned the engine off I could hear a boiling noise coming from the radiator. The temp gauge was always in...

    What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

    Went for a spin up near Squamish, Garibaldi Park Rd, then poked about on the logging roads. Nothing too challenging, saw a bear, good fun.

    Fender Flare Limited - Creative solutions?

    I have been in the same boat for a few weeks, although I have an SR5, I bought a set of Limited Flares and have been racking my brain on how I could "creatively" mount them. I know I'll have to drill the guards, but lining them up and marking where the drill holes should go is proving...

    koltlt 97 sr5 build thread

    Yeah, Thats the one. Good job patching it. I don't have the facilities or tools to do that kind of work, so if I find something it'll be expensive. Praying I dont find anything lurking.
