Hey guys, I just threw on a prinsu rack on my truck and threw on a RTT for the summer. I've noticed this thing squeaks like crazy for no reason. Every little bump is squeaks. I've heard this is an issue with these racks, but has anyone figured out how to quiet the squeaking or completely...

The grille

What are you guys paying for an OEM grille? I need to swap mine out and my dealer is quoting me a super ridiculous amount

we paid 48.8K for our 21 TRDORP with trd wheels, wildpeaks, KDSS, moon roof, floor liners and the rear usb charging ports.

Thank you!

Hey everyone, I recently just picked up an older horse trailer that has a flat 7 prong cable, a heavy duty plug. I have a 2002 4runner 4x4 with the tow package. When I went to look under the my truck I didn't see any heavy duty cables to hook up to. I may have missed them but I wanted to check...

Trying to give this thread some more traction. Anyone know of a good mechanic that can swap out my motor for a newer one?

Hey guys, long story short, I’m pretty confident my engine is toast and need to get a new one. It’s a 2002 4x4. I’ve located an engine with 41,000 on it for 1200, but I need a mechanic to install it. Anyone have any recommendations for the Portland, OR area?

Well boys I come back to post a sad sad update on this.... I got everything back on and cleaned out. Started it up and was running beautifully and way healthier. I let it idle In the drive way for awhile. I took it for a test drive down the road and got an oil light. I figure it’s was low since...

ok so I just got back in and pulled off the passenger side cover and it was basically the same or slightly worse. I scraped off some of the bigger clumps of oil from the internals and vacuumed it out. I went over it and got pretty much everything that's loose. I'm gonna put it back together...

Well I knew this was gonna happen. Short back story on this before I start taking heat for this truck. I bought this truck with about 195K on it and have been putting on a lot of miles since this is my daily driver and I drive a lot for work. I've been having a good oil leak somewhere and I...

I need to replace my valve cover gaskets and I'm assuming I need to replace the cam caps as well (havent cracked off the covers yet but Im going to be replacing them since ill be replacing the gaskets anyways). Where should I order all this from? Is there a kit that has everything for this...

Hello everyone. I have a sagging weather seal on my driver side door that is driving me insane. I bought this 4runner a few months ago from another person so I don't know if it has been replaced or not but I need to fix this thing asap. Its a 2002 4WD if that info is useful. Whats the best way...

Quick question, do 98 parts fit on an 02? I need to replace my turn signal mechanism lever and the weather stripping on my driver side. My junk yard just got a pretty good 98 in with damn near pristine Interior and want to fix my rig with its parts. Thanks in advance!

Sweet rig
