The LCD screen is for rear-seat audio. It should also come with a remote. Wireless headphones can be purchased from Toyota I believe, and people in the back can listen to a different type of audio than the front seat passengers. I have it in my 03, and have personally never used it, not even...

I cleaned the grounds/connections, but the cupholder lights still will not go on. The rear window issues/headlight issues have not happened again, but had only happened once to begin with, so I'm not sure if it fixed anything or not. As for the rear window, there are multiple threads about...

http://www.toyota-4runner.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=45022 In a word, yep. You may have very minor rubbing with a very square tire, such as a BFG AT KO, but even that is unlikely. They'll look much better too:D

I will try to get out and take shots this afternoon, but will probably be able to do it tomorrow morning, and we can compare them then. I had a boot replaced at the dealer, and then have had 2 or 3 new clamps put on. I have tried to have the old clamps retightened, but every time I do I get the...

Heh, thanks Chris, sounds like the replies at 120 are my answers. I PMed Brett over there to see what he says, but for now I guess I'll just work on the boots and ignore the diff drop. Thanks for all the help.

My question exactly Mike. It looks straighter to me, which means there is less of an angle, and there is less rubbing between the folds of the boot. Only thing I can gather is that it is BAD to have a perfectly straight CV joint, and that the boots/clamps are made to have a certain angle to...

I think it should be pretty straightforward if i decide to do it, but thanks for offering to look into that! That fix looks good, hopefully it holds. Mine don't seem to want to for some reason, and I'm getting tired of reclamping those boots!:bash:

Diff Drop? Hey Ruffian, I have been talking to cj3flyer about a diff drop after having leaky CV boot clamps for almost a year now, and I wanted to ask you how difficult it would be to install, based on the job done on yours. Basically, I'm going back to school in a week, and will only have a...

Whoops Forgot the picture...

Chris, you are always tons of help. I had actually been looking at Ruffian's pictures since she got her install done, and waiting to see what she did with her leaking boots. I've attached a picture of my driver's side one. The small clamp on the outer boot was perpetually leaking and just...

Thanks! 4runr30 had his PA speakers in a slightly more ideal location directly behind the bumper, but since I have a V8, the transmission/engine oil cooler/whatever it is in front of the main radiator in that location kept me from doing it there. I'm sure I'm probably getting muffled sound...

Re: Electrical problems The headlight issue and the rear window issue happened a week or two after the CB install, but all the other issues were there beforehand. If the rear window issue was a random thing, it could have theoretically "happened" before, and I just never tried to wipe the...

Thanks a lot Chris, I'll go out and do all of that in an hour after the game is over, and hopefully that will make some difference.

Thanks Thanks again, I posted pics of my finished product in another thread.

Talked to a tech at Toyota yesterday about some electrical issues, and the fact that I had a lift and had had some CV boot issues, since he had advised me on it before I installed it. He told me I should look at Downey Off-Road and get a Diff Drop from them, since the lift would most certainly...
