Would this be the Eaton 14211-1 E-Locker or the 14218-1? Just interested. Currently have my 1989 FJ62 for sale and hope to purchase another 4th gen 4Runner soon.

I do. It's ready for someone who can make good use of it (or better than my use of storing it)! Were you interested in grabbing it?

FOR SALE I have an almost new, barely used Clifford remote start/alarm system. It was wired for my 2004 (4th gen) 4Runner SR5 that was totaled out to hail damage early last year. It was professionally installed and professionally removed. My new vehicle is being leased, so I have no plans of...

The same crap is happening to mine. It started when I direct wired my radar detector...it's gotten a ton worse since then. My buddy has an FJ which is designed in such a way that I doubt it'll crack (hard plastic) but mine has seen better days!

That's so good because y'all had me worried already...

Both my dad (physicist/mechanical engineer) and the local shop here confirmed what stevec5000 said. That's wild to me but makes kinda good sense for tire wear issues caused by a thrown rear end. It baffles me that the rear end is only held onto the frame by two flimsy pipes. I'm going with...

I freakin love y'all. It has been so frustrating for me in finding this part. I really like the quality look of the AllProOffroad ones. I think I'm just gonna bite the bulleit and get those. After that I think all I'm looking at is labor and an alignment.

Cool! Thanks for your speedy response. It sucked and of course, Toyota wants me to throw them an arm and a leg to fix it. I like the $160 price much better than the $208 Toyota quoted, but I think I can get it cheaper if I pull-a-part. Now, if I used car-part.com and searched "control arm...

I know very little about part names, and I have a vital part that is broken and in need of replacing. If I order it through my local Toyota dealership and have them service it, I'm looking at damn near $500 that I won't spend. I have a buddy with a shop that'll do it, but I really need to know...

I drive a '04 SR5 V8 with just over 169k mi on the odometer. Bought it new and it drives/responds the same way (if not better) than brand new stock. Only done a couple of changes...Hankook DynaPro ATMs, Burtman Industries spacer lift, and Flowmaster 40 muffler and straight pipe. Great...

This may have already been asked, but I can't seem to find anything specific enough for me. I have a Sony CDX GT510 in my '04 4Runner. I've had the radio for a few years and am just now getting around to installing the PAC SWI-PS. My hope is to regain the use of my steering wheel mounted...

Wait...why would I lose ABS? I'm guessing ATRAC is traction control and I'm guessing VSC is stability control, but aren't those mostly computer generated through my system? Why would that change?

I have recently been collaborating with IPOR about going through with a SAS 4WD conversion. They can do it and do it right, but I need at least 4.5-5.5 inches of lift. How can I achieve a full 4.5-5.5 inches of lift, getting the extra ground clearance while also leveling out the truck? Would...

And who makes body lifts and what will I gain from one?

Could I get similar results with a cornfed 3/2 lift plus a body lift and some Bridgestone AT Revo 2s? Or do I need some of those cool looking shock/spring things?
