    low beams not working

    Just to eliminate any confusion for people, the nut between the steering wheel and seat, is him- OP. It was human error.

    Adjusting Rear Wiper

    Unfortunately, your best bet here.might be to look in the 5th gen section. Though, perhaps a similar design and you could see if some of the ideas in this thread apply to what you have.

    New TRD Style Grille

    Just the emblem. Which I'm a little late to it, but mine showed up by itself as well. I don't have tracking for the other half, so I asked if they were supposed to arrive separate and the response was "Yes ... Because logo is an infringing product, it must be in other ways." (Copy and paste)...

    Heads up for those replacing idlers

    If you go on Rock Auto and perhaps similar parts websites, they will have a "Serpentine Belt Kit", which a few of the major manufacturers (Continental, Dayco, Gates, etc) offer. The kit typically includes all the essentials to redo your serpentine belt system on a vehicle. Usually the belt...

    Synthetic Vrs. Conventional in older 4runner

    Scotty made millions making shotty videos with clickbait titles and annoying camera work. There's teenagers making hundreds of thousands of dollars playing Call Of Duty and letting people watch, does that mean they should be training our Special Forces then?

    Synthetic Vrs. Conventional in older 4runner

    This Scotty shill is almost as annoying as Scotty McClickbait's videos. I wish youtube would let you block Channels. I switch all my vehicles to synthetic oil, including my old Jeep's with those leaky 4.0's, and never got a leak that I didn't already have. It's a well discussed topic across...

    Has anyone on here actually installed new V8 headers themselves?

    I put DT Longtubes on a few weeks back. It took all weekend. I went with Stage 8 Locking fasteners, which are great, but if you thought putting nuts on in those small spaces was hard, try putting on the tabs and then a c clip in the same area. And with that said, I have an exhaust leak. I'm...

    Wiring help: light bar to come on with brights?

    Anybody know which color the grounding wire of the high beams is, by chance?

    !!Doug Thorley Headers 4.7L V8!!

    Yeah, I wasnt banking on the MPG gain, but added bonus as well. MAF and TB cleaned, filters, fluids all synthetic, air pressure in new tires up to 35, OEM plugs done, been through all of it.. no hum or any signs of bearing failure. Not really sure. Thought it was winter gas too, but hasn't...

    !!Doug Thorley Headers 4.7L V8!!

    Yeah, I'm not sure what. All fluids replaced replaced with Amsoil or Redline Oils, full stainless exhaust, and my lift is mild (1.5" front, 1/2" rear) to fit 32" Fallen ATs. New front calipers didn't fix it either. Unless torn CV boots will hurt MPG. Have new ones sitting in the garage.

    Group buy for Doug Thorley PREMIUM VERSION headers, need 20 people!

    My 90 degree adapters for the sensors went right into my headers and my y-pipe. Your y-pipe should've came with clamps. Contact DT.

    !!Doug Thorley Headers 4.7L V8!!

    So, maybe I'm an anomaly, but I haven't seen a MPG improvement. It feels like it the motor doesn't have to work as hard, and it sounds great and such. But after DT longtubes, Y-pipe and free flowing catback, I'm still averaging 14.4-14.7mpg each tank like I was before install..

    How long can you idle on a tank of gas?

    You revived a 13 year old thread for this?...

    Compiled: FJ Springs Lift Info for 4th gen

    I'd guess someone out there has. I have FJC coils and Dobinson shocks. What are you wanting to know? Ride quality? Compatibility?
