It's easy, search for the tutorial on how to remove the center controls, it's one bolt and then you pry open the console. The display you mentioned has to small lights, replace the one that doesn't work. I just did mine this week. I order the light from a toyota dealer, around $4.

Wadle, I just got the truck I never been off road but I'm for a try if you have some places around des moines. Let me know when you get in town.

265/70r17. It rubs a little bit if I lock the steering wheel all the way to left. Strange, it doesn't do this on the right.

It's not so much the camera as it's how you use it. This is actually a sunrise, I underxposed about 2 stops if I remember. Even a point and shoot would have worked if it had manual controls.

Here is another one Mytoy4

Hi, I just wanted to say hello to this forum. I'm new to the SUV world, I had a rusty 4runner 3gen for a few weeks and couldn't live with the idea I cannot trust the frame to take it off road. I now got a 2005 V8 Sport Ed with no rust :) Just installed new tires, Firestone Destination AT. I...

It's $5900, better that I could find in Midwest. That's why I'm flying so far.

Hi, I've sent you a PM with the details. Thank you for your offer !!!

I have a picture of the sticker but I'm working from a tablet and have no clue how to attach it. Thank you both. I'll try to see if I can hire a mechanic for an hour to check it better for me and I'll keep an eye on the cv, ball joints

Do you think a 1997 Land Cruiser in very good shape, 170k miles but no rear/front locking diff just a center diff, would be a better buy?

Good to know. Would you trust a mechanic from Craiglist to do this type of work?

The seller says it's coated underneath. Is there a way to tell if it's rusted? Could it be possible that it's rusted and coated after to mask it?

It is a 4WD, no e-lockers (unfortunately) but it does have the clutch cancel start button (is this button useful?) Is $700 enough to budget for the timing belt service? I know the OEM kit with water pump is $350 on ebay but I don't know about the labor. I'm trying to estimate how much more I...

Hello all, I never had an SUV but I love the look 3rd gen 4Runners. All my cars so ar (golf TDI, Civic SI, Scion FRS) have been manual transmission and I would prefer to continue with the stick shifter. I have the opportunity to buy a 4runner SR5, 5sp, 90K miles for $6,000-$6500 depending...
