    Write-up: How to Disable (Bypass) the TPMS

    Like others have mentioned in this thread, if you cant get a red scotchlok and you really want to you can just strip the 2 wires and use a smaller section of wire to bridge them, or just cut both of them and twist them together and tape it up. The scotchlok connector is just an easier/quicker...

    Write-up: How to Disable (Bypass) the TPMS

    Adding in my thoughts here as I did this mod on 2 4runners this weekend. My TPMS light was not blinking but it was constantly on because I got new wheels/tires without TPMS sensors. This mod worked perfectly for me. Here are a couple tips for anyone else looking to do this: I did not disconnect...

    Temperature Display on Center Console

    I owned a 2004 SR5 v6 4runner previously and it used to display the outside temp on the bottom right hand corner of the center console screen. The top left would cycle through the normal mpg, speed, miles remaining while using the mode button. I now have a 2006 Limited v8 and my temperature will...

    Lift and Tire Central (pics)... Post 'em Up!

    I need the 1" in the front for the clearance on the tires, it would probably rub quite a bit without it.

    Bilstein 5100s with daystar front 1" leveling kit Toyo Open Country AT2 265/70/17 Slight rubbing at full lockup in reverse but I haven't messed with the fender lining yet. I think the front and rear are about even but it kind of gives the appearance that the front is a little but higher. I am...

    The 4th gen TRD PRO wheel picture thread

    This thread has been a huge help to me in deciding what to get so I wanted to contribute. Called my local Toyota dealerships and one of the parts departments were able to get these wheels in gunmetal for $840 after tax. This seemed to be a around the same price they are currently going for on...

    Picked up a 4th gen 2006 Limited V8 yesterday

    After owning a 2004 V6 for a year and selling it to a friend I picked up a 2006 V8 fully loaded yesterday. The mileage was a bit high at 175k but it has been meticulously maintained and I have all service records from the previous owner. First thing I did was remove the running boards. I am on...

    What $$$ should I sell it for

    Were those two people potential buyers? If so then that makes sense as they are probably trying to lowball you. For those saying $10-12k where the hell do you live? If you look on KBB the value for his car in excellent condition is around $6500-$7000. I think yours is probably worth slightly...

    How do I remove my spare tire?

    Yeah I felt like a total idiot as well. I guess I will give it another try haha. Mine is exactly as described in this thread, it feels like its just spinning and not grabbing onto anything. Thanks guys.

    How do I remove my spare tire?

    As dumb as this thread is I would like to bring it back and make it even dumber. I am trying to lower my spare down to put some air in the spare to get rid of the TPMS light but I cant seem to get the lowering mechanism to work. I watched the youtube video and read the manual and I'm pretty sure...
