    Need help finding a noise..

    Can you get the clunking from rocking the vehicle? Maybe have a second person and try to pinpoint the location while rocking it. Did you install your lift or have a shop do it? The long bolt thru the UCA needs to be torqued when off the jack and has the weight of the vehicle on the suspension...

    Quietest AT Tires?

    Tire size and rating is just as important as which brand. I went with Toyo AT3 SL since most of my miles are highway and I was trying to avoid the weight and noise of the E rated tires. The SL also have a 65k mile warranty vs 50k on the E rated. I have just over 10k miles on them and they have...

    How Much Weight Does Soundproofing Add ?

    I bought 36 sqft of Noico 80 mil on Amazon for $60 and it says it weighs 27 lbs. It was enough material to do the 4 doors and trunk hatch. I did not do the floorboards but I may eventually. I installed when I replaced my speakers and it was a little time consuming but very simple install. It...

    How much are people paying for the NEW 4Runner?

    Reduces ground clearance and you can make metal to metal contact between the rear sway bar and track bar. There is a newly released spacer (Blackgate Customs) that is suppose to alleviate the problem in the rear. After driving both I prefer having KDSS on a daily driver. I wouldn’t buy one...

    How much are people paying for the NEW 4Runner?

    $41.5k before TTL in CA isn’t too bad of a price in current market conditions. Also depends on if it includes other packages like moonroof, cargo tray, etc. I love the KDSS system as long as you don’t plan on lifting too much. I have 1.5” Dobinson rears with Kings and it rides great.

    How much are people paying for the NEW 4Runner?

    No I bought it from Oxnard Toyota in LA. I have a family member in the car business that hooked me up with a Toyota manager. I remember someone mentioning Frank Toyota in National City negotiates prices but I haven’t tried myself. I think Santa Margarita is a Costco dealership that might also be...

    What else do you drive?

    Bought the 4Runner when my daughter was born. I also have a 1st Gen Tundra and a 2016 GT350. I will probably buy either a Land Cruiser or Lexus LX (if they change that hideous front end) within the next few years if we have another kid or when the Tundra wears out.

    How much are people paying for the NEW 4Runner?

    I bought my 2019 ORP w/ KDSS, moonroof, sliding cargo tray for $500 over dealer invoice which was around $4k under MSRP, or $41k if I remember correctly. After paying California taxes, registration, destination fees, etc ... I think it was around $45k out the door.

    New here

    Nice find. It would be cool if they brought back the removable top on the 6th gen to compete with the new bronco.
