I too have a KDSS light On for some time. Today decided to check that notorious connector and - lo and behold - I got exactly same issue: two broken pins in the connector. How did you guys solve the problem? What is the part number for the female connector? Is it 90980-12303? What about male...

I have TE and as such a full length fuel tank skid plate is already in place. I just wanted to take it off for reshaping b/c it dented to the point that it is up against a fuel tank. Or may be that is not a big deal and I should leave it alone?

Hey Cody! Didn't quite get what you did to get access to that bolt. If the frame was on jack stands, how did you lower an axle?!

never mind

Interisting indeed Well, you are probably a lucky guy. Also, cars are different. I have a Honda Accord w/moonroof. It is not leaking as of yet... since I follow the advice - don't use it if you do not need it. As I said, I never had a necessity to open it. Anyway, Honda's stance on the issue...

Moon roof is pointless! I'm 6'5" also and with the lowest seat adjustment still touch the ceiling with my hair - especially when they clean and bushi :) The truck without moonroof will give up to one inch extra room? and believe me that will make a huge difference in feeling! I also drive an...

I've asked this question few times in a different way - why on the earth Toyota (and many other 4x4s) cares only about front end of a truck by extending dif and tranny breathers up to an engine bay, but doesn't do so for the rear diff???? Anyway, looking at the breather construction (whatever...

Where is the third breather???? I have exactly same situation as you have described. Cap on a large hose isn't moving at all, but I don't think it is stuck. Probably it is how supposed to be. But where is the third breather assuming one for diff, one for tranny and one for x-case?

Bingo! Isn't this a reason why Toyota left this only breather not exteded way up?:jump: BTW, where is e-locker breather located? Search all feasible things underneath the car, and still no clue.:shrug: Also, in an engine bay I can see only two breather hoses showing up on the left side of...

:wow: Chemical engineer. :thanks:

found this thread (pretty old one):New 4Runner water fording height? The quote from Guest: "The breather is a loose one-way valve. If the pressure sucks in, it closes the breather. If the heat builds up, it blows out. Is there a chance debris could block open the breather? Yes. Is it probable...

Hi guys, First off all, let me express my deep esteem to this awesome site and people posting here and sharing invaluable information from their experience. Second, I hate any mods on any cars unless they are legit. Have said that, here are my few challenging questions about the rear diff...

it is odd Toyota doesn't do this on the 4Runners especially the TE model Even my old (2000) Ford Explorer has a factory installed rear diff breather extender. :wtf:

I did not extend the rear diff breather yet. Does not it sound strange that Toyota did extend the tranny and front diff breathers, but "forgot" to do so for the rear diff breather? It is hard to believe that Toyota's' engineers overlooked this issue entirely. No logic. Or may be you guys...
