    FS 3rd Gen T4R, $1500 or BO. 4WD in South Jersey

    It's ready for a new loving owner. I still have it. I have two other newer toyota's and not enough time for this one. Any one interested, send a private message.

    FS 3rd Gen T4R, $1500 or BO. 4WD in South Jersey

    Hey Guys, I am posting my T4R for sale. It has some issues, but would make a good truck or restoration project. It has some dings and scuffs here and there, but is in decent shape. The good; it runs strong. No issues with the trans. I had disconnected the trans cooler years ago and...

    brush guard

    I found a toyota brush guard too. The one I found was given to me. Love it on my 08'. It fits well and it has the shape I was looking for.

    4th Gen 4WD warranty work V6

    So, this is how it ended. I went back to the original dealership. They had me speak to their senior mechanic, who was very familiar with the 4WD set up's in 4Runners. He did agree that the system was no operating normally. The service manager hooked me up with a loner car. That was...

    4th Gen 4WD warranty work V6

    Sorry it took so long to respond. Thank you all for your input. BlackworksInc, thank you for your insight. My original description of what was done was simply a quote of what was said to me. I have photos of the service slip. This should clear up what exactly was done to this truck... The...

    4th Gen 4WD warranty work V6

    Please read again... Both units were replaced. I'm not certain what they did, but I can't believe a dealership would repair a vehicle and return it in this condition. I have been trying to write to Toyota , but their sight won't let me send the message. I'm going to get another opinion at...

    4th Gen 4WD warranty work V6

    Hey guys. I need some qualified opinions here. I have an 08 Sport with 4WD. 4wheel low would not work. It was covered under warranty. Dealership first changed out 4 wheel high actuator. That did not fix it. Then took out the transfer case and changed 4 wheel low actuator. They gave...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    Agreed! Just got done an HID mod using corvette HID projectors and hardware. The difference is twice the illumination while still DOT compliant. Why do that you ask... because I'm older and my eyes are not what they used to be! Just check out my album for photos. Sorry, I can't figure...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    Great. It will be your turn to write a review on those new resistors! LOL. PLEASE let us know how those GEN 2.5's hold up. Mine flickered a little when they got wet in my last post... but they are dry and operating normally now. I guess the connectors got wet. I will know when I pull...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    No names, sorry. Just signed "VLEDS SUPPORT". Interesting that they sent you the same resistors. They told me that they don't sell those resistors no mo. Sadly, this gives one the impression that 'one hand doesn't know what the other hand is up to'.

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    staged2: They did not offer, and I did not ask about "replacements". I'm certain, since the defect was well documented, that I could have asked for an exchange. But, Im getting along just fine after I repaired these. The bright side here (no pun intended) is that they are easily repairable...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    Buyer beware VLEDS Update: So after two days the VLEDS are holding up well. Drove with them at night and they are super. They have not been in the rain yet so when it rains tomorrow, I will have more to report on if I have been able to keep out the moisture. The resistors that I...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    OK, I let VLEDS know of my experiences. Hopefully, they take a second look at this product and make some changes. Here was my letter. "I had some problems installing your product. The control box was not as shown on your website. The collars did not really fit that well on the led emitter...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    Buyer beware VLEDS I still think these VLEDS are impressive. But it was the little headaches that took away from this product's mark of high quality. I only took the resistors apart. The main led was not disassembled in any way. The large gasket would not fit, even when i tried to force it...

    DRL and Turn Signal Mods.

    Buyer beware VLEDS Finally it all works. The lights work and are bright. Ambers kick in on signals as it should. I did not connect the dimmer wire, but I am leaning towards wiring up a manual switch. I want to first see how blinding these things are at night and see if a dimmer is necessary...
