    4x4 Magic Beans

    I can’t figure out how to quote a response on the mobile but, I'm amazed at the difference between 4H and 4H + Mud/Sand multi terrain. So true, I was able to play with some of the trac modes with Colorado’s last snow storm. I also got stuck again! But it was a 3ft snow drift I couldn’t see...

    4x4 Magic Beans

    I learned the hard way. Crawl did nothing for this, but had I understood how all the traction aids worked I wouldn’t have gotten stuck in the first place. For some reason I thought 4 high would automatically turn trac off, nope once I started slowing I hit the gas and trac engaged killing power...

    Soon to be Back - Requesting advice!

    I have the boss kit when radflo made them and 275 ko2 with wheel spacers. I was in the same situation when I built this. I didn’t want any rubbing so that’s why I went with 275’s but they still rub a little and had to trim the front bumper, now I’m kicking myself for not getting 285 for a better...

    Oem audio plus broken wires

    I ended up making it work by joining the blue and black wire together, then dropping solder into the pin with the wires. Not great but it’ll work till they give me a permanent fix.

    Oem audio plus broken wires

    Just an FYI the blue and black wires do go in the same pin. Still waiting for them to let me know what they are gonna do. I’m Not real thrilled with the process so far.

    Oem audio plus broken wires

    Wow! Im surprised by the response to this question. Thanks to those who gave thoughtful insight and comments. To the others, I don’t get the hate towards the brand. I didn’t ask how well built you thought it was or any opinion for that matter. Isn’t this supposed to be a forum about our joint...

    Oem audio plus broken wires

    Just making sure that the wires go to the same pin. I left an email and phone message with them. I’m sure they will do me right but I was hoping to have it working for a road trip.

    Oem audio plus broken wires

    Hello all, IÂ’m hoping someone can help me. I noticed the sub wasnÂ’t working so I pulled it out and found the blue and black wire are broken off at the connector that plugs into the sub box. It looks like they plug into the same pin but was hoping for some verification. Thanks

    Auto transmission slipping out of 1st

    Hello all. IÂ’m having issues with my moms 99 limited v6 auto. I have replaced all the shift solenoid a year ago along with the filter and fluid. It ran perfect for a year. Now it has an intermittent problem taking off from a stop. ItÂ’s acting like it goes into neutral then bang into gear and...

    Surprisingly stable at high speeds

    I think it’s all perspective, sure my 96 taco didn’t like speed as much as my 4Runner. Flame away but I agree with the op. These trucks are very stable at speed, of course there better ones out there but these are comfy cruisers. They are heavy enough and have enough sidewall to not make them...

    OEM Audio + 5th Gen 4Runner audio system

    Daniel goes above and beyond. He worked very hard to make sure I received my system before a long road trip. I was missing the ambilical cord and he overnighted one from the FJ summit for me and answered many late night phone calls. Unfortunately I also had a bad amp but road trip was to cali so...

    Right Rear Clunk

    I have the toytec boss lift, basically radflo’s. When it’s cold out it feels and sounds like the truck is falling apart. I think it’s normal when you have solid mounts without rubber bushings. The fact that you only hear it on one corner, I would inspect the bolts and bushings for play. Then...

    Right Rear Clunk

    Do you have a lift? The only way I could tell if I had a bad shock without taking it off is when I would go over a turning highway overpass and the joints/bumps would unsettle the truck.
