    2012 SR5 Turn Signal Housing Replacement

    Swapped out the pair of housings this morning. Bought TYC parts # 12527201 and 12527101 from RockAuto. Removed the three screws holding the splash guard from the inside edge of the wheelwell like when you replace the turn signal bulb. I then removed the two small splash guards behind the bumper...

    2012 SR5 Turn Signal Housing Replacement

    What's the best way to swap the turn signal/driving light housings out on a 2012? I found one video where a guy who didn't know what he was doing perform it. One of ours has a 1/4" round hole through the lens and the bulb which I replaced a few months ago is giving me fits working/then not...

    Door trim seal

    We have a 2012 that the rear driver window trim seal has turned to goo. I didn’t know if you needed to replace the whole piece or if the seal itself could be replaced?

    Michelin LTX M/S2 LT(E)

    All right then. Since I haven't had time to really try different pressures I'm going with 45psi on this trip with the U-Haul trailer. Trailer weighs 900 lbs empty and we'll have about 3-400 lbs in it with 3 passengers at 550lbs plus another 50-100 lbs of stuff. Update: Pulled the 5x8...

    Michelin LTX M/S2 LT(E)

    Long story short I ended up having to put new sneakers on our 4R we've had for less than a week. Went to Discount Tire and they either had P or LT(E) tires in stock and they weren't putting the one I needed fixed that was leaking back on. The stock Duelers were only going to last another 5K at...

    2012 SR5 towing setup advice please

    Well, took it in to Discount Tire to fix a slow leak and the tire had a bead that was basically barely hanging on in a 4" spot. So, I replace all 4 tires with Michelin LTX M/S2's in LT265/70R17 with the E load rating. I've had passenger tires on SUV's and tried to trailer with 80-90% loads and...

    2012 SR5 towing setup advice please

    One more thing. It's going to need a new pair of sneakers as well pretty soon. Any suggestions with the towing requirement we have? I've seen some mention of the Duratracs (E rated, C seems to get spotty reviews due to the sidewall blowouts), Revo2's (rating - ?), and the Toyo Open Country...

    2012 SR5 towing setup advice please

    Thanks everyone. Looks like we have a few things to think about. I know the 1206 is known for it's straight-line pulling. Not a lot of complaints I could find about sway with this particular trailer. We will just have to see. Looks like the air-springs might be a good option though with the...

    2012 SR5 towing setup advice please

    My wife and I picked up a 2012 SR5 with the tow package the other day and have a few questions about towing our fairly new to us popup with it. Bear with me please :) Our popup is a 2008 Jayco 1206. It's fairly large at 19' long when folded down and 3450 GVWR. Tongue weight is 300-350lbs...
