Besides changing out the front bumper to an aftermarket one, does anyone know of, or recommend a push bar that's stout enough to take a hit from a deer? I have tons of deer where I live and don't want my 4runner totalled out from one. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Gents, Was hoping someone could confirm the wiring on an 08 sr5 v6 with this mod before I dive into it. If anyone could it would be greatly appreciated.

I just wanted to thank the OP for this thread. It seriously saved my butt working on my 08 sr5 today. Did cv axles and all the seals as well as a bushing conversion from the needle bearing.

Ok, so I just got in the ebay snorkel in. Read through the forum but nowhere does it give a straight forward answer as to what else one should do in regards to this install. I'm taking my time because it's the first one I've done, but I want to make sure I do it right. Couple questions, 1...

I took my 4runner to the local dealer to have them bleed the brakes with their diagnostic tool. They were no help. Said they couldn't bleed them and I had issues with my rear hardlines, so back to the drawing board.

So I was able to check today as AuSeeker described. The motor and pump are turning on. Between a buddy and I are the ones wrenching on the 4runner since I've owned it. Next step from here is im going to follow the link to bleeding them without the SST and if that doesn't work try taking it to...

Haven't forgot about you guys. Been having issues logging in lately. Work has been crazy so my next set of days off I'll go through and try what you guys have posted and see if that remedies the issue and report back my findings.

So I just got back from taking it for a drive and listening for some of the things you guys have told me. I don't know if my hearing is just that terrible or what but I'm not hearing any pump kick on. Socal, in regards to the valve block, can you give me a bit more insight? I'm lost on what...

The truck isn't driven hard, learned early on when you're hard on your own stuff the only person who ends up losing in the end is you. Hardest driving I've done to date with it is driven downstate to pick up a trailer 5x9 loaded and back up. Rpms buzzed along around 2.5-3k. The buzzing sound of...

Moist, Not that we've seen. We haven't been able to think of anyway the system would have a leak that would be causing this issue. Everytime we have messed with the brake system in its entirety, we bleed the whole system with a vacuum. The rear calipers didn't seem to be an issue when we last...

2008 sr5 with v6. Approximately 198k miles.

Hey all, Not to hijack the thread, but I'm also having a brake issue and I'm hoping you guys can help me out. They were feeling squishy like there was air in the line. Bled the system, rebuilt the piston in the master cylinder and things got better for a while. Replaced the front calipers with...

xtremewlr that boot kit you recommended, did you do all the boots on your cv axles or just the outer ones? I haven't heard any sounds or anything that really is concerning regarding mine, but if you guys are saying to just switch the boots and keep running it till there's a significant issue...

Doing some routine maintenance on my 08 sr5 and found my cv boot ripped. Being that she is a bit higher miles - 198k, I'm looking at just replacing both the cv axles up front. Does anyone have knowledge of using these? I'm looking at GSP front cv axles from parts geek part number: 28867-02943907...

Ok gents, Let me start off by saying I apologize for pulling up an old thread but I dont have enough posts to start my own thread. I have an 08 4runner sr5 with the v6 that I've been looking at putting a snorkel on. Need some help sifting through all this. Are these lc 80 or lc 100 kits off ebay...
