Budjack, how did you attach those off road lights? I have the same bar and very similar lights and have been trying to figure out how to attach them. My lights are KC and are threaded stems, probably 1/2 inch.

4,000+ I just did a 4,000+ road trip with my son to go visit some baseball parks on the east coast. Drove from CO to Cooperstown, NY to Philly, to Detroit, to Chicago then back through Iowa and Nebraska to get back home. No issues with the old 4Runner but it was hot without AC. We would do...

Also make sure you have the correct amount of oil that can reduce a little of the clacking. Mine has 192,000 and burns about an ounce a week.

I have the same problem. I have also heard that even though my Haines manual does not say to do this, but that you have to remove the fender or the wheel well to replace the antenna. Is that true?
