    Welding a new rear sway bar bracket on?

    Apparently I pushed my rear sway bar bracket too hard, and it broke off. One of the bolts holding the bracket on is out somehow, might have never been there, and the bottom bolt broke off. The other side is still intact. https://imgur.com/a/W8gpf I tried using a screw extractor to try to get...

    I smashed my towing electrical harness one too many times on rocks, so I modified it.

    I've replaced my towing electrical harness 3 times because I constantly smash it on rocks. I need it for towing my camper but it just gets in the way offroading. I went to Lowes with an idea in my head and got some hardware and built this. It is on a hinge so when I need it I can pull it down...

    (Help)Tried changing front parking lights/turn signals out and now none of them work!

    Last week my front left turn signal bulb went out and had a fast blinker inside. i ordered some LED replacements from Amazon (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D8DJN30/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) and they arrived today. When I put one of them in to check if they worked...

    Are sport edition stock roof bars a universal fit for other trims?

    Missing some parts on my SR5 roof rack. Prefer not to spend $1k+ on a full roof rack replacement like a gobi rack no matter how much i would like to.

    Having trouble folding my middle seat in my 3 row seat 4runner

    I have a 2005 sr5 with 3rd row seats. the middle driver side seat will fold down but it will not fold forward. It used to but now it doesn't. one of the latches feels like it is coming undone but the other one is not. I've tried prying it up somewhat gently but it will not come up and i dont...

    I just replaced one of the lateral links on my baby.

    This isn't a guide. Just replaced the lateral link on the passenger side of my rig because it was slightly bent on a rock for who knows how long and I didn't trust its structural integrity. It wasn't too hard, luckily my bolts came undone pretty easily. This is what I replaced it with...

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    Can I get some information on this mod? looks sick. Is that something you can turn on individually for night crawling?

    Has anybody else damaged their lateral links from rock crawling?

    Can you get us the details of the piece you welded on? Length width thickness?

    Has anybody else damaged their lateral links from rock crawling?

    About 5 mins. Two 19mm bolts holding it in and one 12mm bolt holding some tube line thing. Then you use some ratchet straps to pull the axle whichever way it needs to go to fit the link back in. This can be the hard part. I used some tie down straps to pull it, kind of surprised it works.

    Has anybody else damaged their lateral links from rock crawling?

    im wondering how common it is to damage these from rock crawling. I damaged mine a few months ago at EJS and i just noticed recently and ordered a replacement. but that was with my lift and small tires and i just got new bigger tires.

    RPM at idle lower than usual after battery disconnect

    Should I unplug the battery again and have it re-try to get the idle right?

    RPM at idle lower than usual after battery disconnect

    I've only let it idle for about 30 seconds each time before driving, but I've already driven about an hour on it total but at higher speeds. I'll keep that in mind though and if it doesn't go away in a few days I'll probably come back.

    RPM at idle lower than usual after battery disconnect

    Disconnected my battery last night for about 20 minutes while I was exploring the inside of my dash. Since then my 4runner is idling at about 400 RPM rather than the usual 500-600. Also seems to respond slower and be more jerky when hitting the gas from a stopped position. Driving it otherwise...
