    WTB: 4th Gen 4WD in NoCal

    I am willing to drive mine up to you, but I want more than $10k :). I am looking at a couple GX460s up there that I want, and that would be a perfect time to pick that up!

    WTB:CA 16-24k budget 4th or 5th gen 4runner

    It will be pretty tough to find something in SoCal with low miles I am betting. A lot of commuter cars around here. I am about to sell mine, but it has 160k miles on it. I wish you luck!

    ATF Exchange (using the cooling line)

    Just did this yesterday evening. I was a little freaked out at the end though, as I had put 12 qt in to the transmission and did the idle and check the overflow deal. Problem was that nothing was coming out. I added another 1/2 qt and did it again.....still nothing. I added another 1/2 qt (up to...

    Aftermarket black headlights - review and lots of pics

    I think I got the same set, but on Amazon. They look really good! I haven't been hassled by "the man" because of the smoked lens yet, so time will tell.

    Let's talk trailer hitches

    I have the Hidden Hitch and it is hardly hidden. Also, the 7 Pin connector is in a horrible position. If I were to do it again, I would be searching junk yards for the V8 4R hitch, and not get an aftermarket one.

    Blacked out Headlights 06' Sport DIY

    Here you go: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B016EBH1VY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Had to do a little opening of one of the parking light tabs, but wasn't a big deal. Other than that, they fit and look great

    Blacked out Headlights 06' Sport DIY

    I blacked out my headlights about a year ago and noticed that there was a little condensation inside the glass a few weeks ago. Must have not sealed it back up properly. I ended up just buying a set off of Amazon that were already blacked out. I got them last night and noticed that the glass is...

    4th gen Plug and Play headlight bulbs

    No issues! It is like installing the normal bulbs, but with the ballast between.

    4th gen Plug and Play headlight bulbs

    They work really well in the high beams. MUCH brighter than the stock bulbs. hair more white than I would have wanted, but nice for the brights. I have only had them for about a month and only have needed to use them a few times.

    4th gen Plug and Play headlight bulbs

    I ended up getting a set of LEDs from Amazon for my high beams. 9005 base, and plug and play to the factory harness. They come with a little ballast for each bulb, but were easily zip tied to the factory wiring on each side...

    What are you towing with your 4th gen, V6?

    I just got a 20ft (24.5 W/ tongue) Wildwood trailer that I am towing. While a little slow on the take off, the 4R tows it really well. I finished doing the valve cover gaskets, added air bags to the rear coils, and put a new frame receiver on the 4R before towing. I also got a WD hitch and anti...

    Climbing loose rock and VSC engaging.

    Yep, ATRAC....It takes some getting used to, but it works very well if you let it. don't over-throttle, let it slip around a little, and it should get you out of a majority of situations. I have also used it in conjunction with feathering the E Brake for worse situations. It is fun seeing what...
