    You can take the man out the telephone company… [OFF ROAD LIGHTS]

    Those are awesome! I was able to play with them at a previous job and when we got a new Ram, it had a HID version. While stuck on a gravel backroad baby sitting some live lines on broken poles, I won the game of blind your friend in the other pickup. It would also be handy for that tailgater...

    Limited Edition Mod Thread

    This is awesome! I think you should start your own thread with lots of pics/info. Or at least a few more pics on here. Or maybe take it on a tour around the country? I would like to see it from about knee high?

    Cornfed 1" front spacer to level only...

    I have a install question. I have been wanting to do this for a while, but life has other priorities for my money. I have been wondering if there is an easier way to install spacers using spring compressors or maybe a couple ratchet straps?? Instead of removing all the extra suspension, can...

    5th Gen Aluminum Roof Rack Using OEM Siderails: NiseRack

    Wow that's crazy! She almost flipped the car. In reality, this accident with your car may have saved somebody else's life further down the road. Did you see the comment below the video? You could be famous-ish. Good luck in the move. RR&BD Driving School 22 hours ago Hi J A​,may I use...

    ?s about locking hubs ...

    Yes, I have a limited, so its not an issue for me. I just like to understand how things work and it surprised me that the non-limiteds doesn't use some sort of automatic hubs or at least something to disengage both Left and right wheels. This would give a tiny bit of fuel efficiency back. I...

    ?s about locking hubs ...

    Ok, now I am confused. If there is a disconnect for the RH prop shaft and the transfer case disconnects the front, everything would still be turning but no binding would occur. Am I right? The driver side wheel is still connected to front diff and the front driveshaft, so the moving ground...

    Need help on diagnosing a sound on a GX460. Please Help!

    Another possibility is a cracked brake rotor. Good luck!

    Rear Drawers and Kitchen - Do's and Don'ts

    Sorry, I don't have a real answer but thought I could ask a similar question: Is there problems with building a very short drawer system of about 4" tall? We use the 4Runner for a lot of different things and can use most of the space in back for groceries, suitcases, and bargains off...

    DIY: Ultra Low Profile Custom Rack / Crossbars for OEM TE Roof Rails

    I'm curious, how close is the bottom of the crossbar to the top of the side rail? I was just daydreaming and wondered if you could replace the 6 hole plate for a 90 degree angle bracket and then use a longer crossbar (48"-60"?) and have it extend over the top. Ryan

    5th Gen For Sale/Wanted Thread

    I would think there is something out there, but if that doesn't work you can check junk yards? car-parts.com is a search engine to check yards anywhere in the country. Or worst case, buy the Chinese grill replacement and get the cool TOYOTA grill. Good luck!

    From sliders to OEM running boards

    You may find somebody to trade with you and I wish you were a bit closer! Another option is to take the sliders off and cut the angle bars where they attach. Then re-weld them flat. This should give you more toe room. You could also add a 1" chunk of pipe to push the bars out a bit further...

    Compustar Best Buy install Fail

    It has a factory option, but factory may not be the best option. The Toyota version has very limited range(same as unlocking with key fob) and limits options. Its also more expensive. The Compustar has the options to use factory fob, have feedback from different long range fobs, use cell...

    Sliding cargo tray owners: Asking the real question

    Not sure if your "escort" will fit. You would have to cut her up in little pieces and that would be a whole other problem!!! ;-)

    KDSS without moonroof?

    Just wanted to throw in a "me too" just in case Toyota is watching. Maybe they will start making the sunroof more optional. ;-) I am irritated with the sunroof lowering the headliners. At 6'3" my hair just rubs a little bit in our new '14 limited and in our old '09 Camry XLE. It seems like...
