2024 TRD ORP - Solar Octane Just bought a new 2024 TRD ORP in Farmington NM - $49,750 out the door but that did not include CO title and taxes. MSRP with $1395 delivery fee was $51,198 so about $1500 off MSRP. It was hard to find a Solar Octane ORP without a moonroof and I came up $250 on my...

OEM Battery Replacement 2016 4Runner and the battery starting giving me fits in the cold weather. Luckily I had a 1200A lithium jump starter to save my bacon several times. Lots of research and fretting about an AGM. I ended up simply replacing with an EverStart MAXX from Walmart for $120 and...

Hit 94K and was ready to do complete brakes but when I pulled everything off I still had 6mm on front pads and rotors looked good so put the front pads on the shelf. Rear pads were at 3.5mm so I went ahead and did a pad swap - rotors looked good. Lots of research on parts and ended up with...

Rear Brakes at 94K Hit 94K and was ready to do complete brakes but when I pulled everything off I still had 6mm on front pads and rotors looked good so put the front pads on the shelf. Rear pads were at 3.5mm so I went ahead and did a pad swap - rotors looked good. Lots of research on parts...

Oh - and the original question. I have the 285 spare mounted on the stock 17" steel rim but I am shopping for a Trail wheel so I can rotate it in. My last set of 265s I never used the spare and then struggled to get $50 for a brand new tire when I sold it. Would rather go ahead and use the...

285s and Live in CO I have a 2016 and live in CO (Durango) and spend a good bit of time off-road. I have a 2.5" front/1.5" rear lift, RCI skids, sliders, SSO slimline front bumper and winch and APEX steel rear bumper (so I am carrying alot of weight). My highway mileage is around 17.5 but I...

I have KDSS and a 285 spare and didn't have any problem fitting it underneath - have about 1" to the KDSS sway bar.

Yep - just installed RCI on my 2016 with KDSS - clearance on front bolts are so tight you can barely get a wrench on it.....plus the tab with the logo sticks up and blocks the filler plug so you have to use a wrench there also. Overall pleased with the rest of my RCI armor and sliders but that...

With the extra weight I am carrying I am seeing about 17.5 and I can push to 18 if I drive slow and sensible (which rarely happens....). I need to get my current weight but steel bumpers, skids, winch, armor, 285s, etc. I saw my mileage drop from 19.5 down to 17.5 but .5 of that was from the...

Details? Been thinking about this since the last time I got stuck on a big boulder I couldn't see ......

Transmission Flush 90K and did a full flush using the method I read elsewhere on the forum of tapping into the outlet line from the radiator (royal PIA to get to that clamp...) and running out 2 quarts at a time after draining the pan and refilling. I used a Slippery Pete hand pump and that...

Redline Oil I just did my transfer case and differentials this weekend and used Redline 75W90 in the transfer case and Redline 75W85 in the differentials. 90K miles and the dealer was suppose to have changes the differentials under the maintenance plan but I could tell the front had never been...

I know it was awhile ago but I appreciate the details as I am just doing this now for rear fog lights

Using Paint to Reduce Size Since I had trouble figuring out how to reduce large pictures to something that will fit in this forum though I would go ahead and post what I learned. Feel free to comment if there is a better approach. I opened my 2MB pictures (from my phone) using Paint on my...
