    Brake Light Mystery

    Hello all, I have a condition with my brake lights that's got me puzzled. For starters, 2003 SR5 V8. They are LED in non OEM housings. Have worked flawlessly until about a month ago. The first thing I noticed was the dash lights coming on when the brake pedal is pressed. Then, I found that...

    Compiled: FJ Springs Lift Info for 4th gen

    FJ/GX Suspension Components on '03 V8 Hello, There's someone local selling front and rear suspension components off a 2015 GX460 with 60k miles for very cheap. They claim it's plug n play with all FJs and 03+ T4R. But, I think I read the bushings on the rear shock are different. Is that right...

    4th Gen Suspension Options/FAQ

    Bluesky 07, Thanks for your input on all things 4th gen. I just got one a few weeks ago. '03 SR5 V8 w/ 170k. One of the first things I'm doing is replacing the CV axles. While I've got it apart, I am going to do some other wear items like brakes and suspension. I picked up some new Tru Drive...

    Quick Wheel Question

    A guy locally has some 17's with fairly low mile Toyo OC in the size I want. Just trying to confirm they go on my '85 manual locking front axle. Obviously without the center cap. Thoughts? Much appreciated!

    Instrument Cluster from 87 to 85

    Hi everyone, Someone locally has a "full" instrument cluster from an 87 4runner 4-cyl. I want to replace the basic cluster that came in my 85. Is this panel compatible? What modifications will I need to make if it is compatible? I had read something about the 110mph speedometer being off but I...

    Thanks, Lord Rigatoni! I'm pretty happy with the find. 206k on the odometer. ODO works and appears to be original. - KG

    Old Member - New to me 1st Gen - '85

    GoodieKev here. Back to the forum with a new project. I scooped an '85 4Runner in Roanoke, VA on Thursday, 10/29/2020. 4X4, manual, red, all stock except some horrid aluminum wheels. I did talk the seller into letting me take the original steelies. Off the bat: The good - It starts, drives...

    Quick Tundra Brake Upgrade Wheel Question

    I think I read that the 3 Spoke Split wheels will only fit 199mm TBU. Is that right? Is there any grinding involved with the 3 spoke/199mm combo? Thanks

    2009 Steel Wheels Question

    I'm looking at several wheels choices to upgrade to 16". A guy on CL has these 2009 Tacoma wheels for really cheap. Any known issues on 3rd gen? Lug-centric a problem? Will they clear 231mm TBU? For this price, I could just put on a set of used winter tires. KG

    Quick Input Needed

    Good evening boys and girls, I am trying to decide on some Wheel/Tire combinations and want your input. I am definitely going the used wheel route. I planned on buying wheels/rims as cheaply as possible and getting new tires, BUT a few deals on CL have peaked my interest. Check out below and...

    Finally Here: Looking for suggestions

    I found these on CL. Anyone know about fitment on 3rd gen? They are 17's from a Tacoma, should clear 231 calipers, right? Thanks, KG

    Finally Here: Looking for suggestions

    I will likely keep the step bars. We will use the roof a lot for camping, luggage, etc. I like the first set of rims also. Problem is, I have read that they have less offset/backspacing and will make the "track" more narrow. I don't think it'll be that big of a deal because the truck doesn't...
