I was looking at this same model I think, since it works with the stock fob and doesn't require much wiring. My only concern is that the factory keyless entry would be disabled with the truck running so I couldn't remotely cancel the start or remotely unlock the doors. Do you have to go out...

Oops, that link above points to the dakota digital sight. The writeup is here.

I've been considering installing something like this too even though I only have slightly oversize tires. There's a writeup on 4x4wire on the Dakota Digital unit that costs about $80 which is a lot cheaper than the Superlift box. Is there an advantage I'm not seeing that makes it worth $200?

Me too. My rear bumper will probably rival yours in beauty if I give it another winter!

Sounds like gear lube to me! That would make the likely culprit the rear axle seal that somebody mentioned above. I can't comment on price, but it shouldn't be too awful.

Does the 99 have a light flashing while the 4wd is engaging? If so, is your problem that the light just keeps flashing and doesn't indicate engaged or that you physically can't shift the transfer case into 4hi? If it's the light flashing, it might be a problem with your ADD not engaging...

Here's the Edmunds link. The transfer case info is near the end under #6. http://blogs.edmunds.com/straightline/2009/09/is-the-2010-4runner-trail-grade-the-best-4x4-package-sold-in-the-us.html

Multi-Mode is different but still there! According to the Edmunds article, the torsen center diff is still standard on the SR5 and TE. It locks automatically somehow, which I'm curious to learn more about, but it can be driven in 4wd on dry pavement from the sound of it. I can't wait until...

Welcome from a fellow Iowan. Congrats on the new runner!

The driver sure got out of there in a hurry. Is that the Ram's wheel that goes flying across the screen?

Yup, I'd go back and get the harness. Don't forget an install kit to make it look nice. Your blaupunkt should sound great in there!

Your aftermarket stereo's built-in amp will sound better than the factory one unless it's a cheapo.

Are you trying to connect to the harness that plugs into the factory head unit? The harness you are looking for is actually the one that connects to the factory amp (no idea why they couldn't fit an amp in that enormous HU). It's mounted below and behind your head unit and can be removed if...

Thanks for the welcome everyone! CJ3Flyr: I could also go by the name XLSFlyr I suppose. Nice to see a cohort on here :)

I bought my 02 about a year ago after years of lust for one. I've learned a ton lurking around here, so I thought I'd finally join in.
