    3RZ Engine Tick

    You know what, you're completely right. I know the 3rz's have to get valve adjustments more frequently than the 5vz. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

    Best style lights for the A Pillar/ditch light?

    Well if you're going to use them for lighting up the sides/wheels/ditches I would go with driving or flood pattern. If you're using them straight ahead and ditches when needed, flood/spot combo. If they are only going to be facing forward, spot. LED is the best all around way to go. Less power...

    Clicking noise when accelerating

    Check your U joints, that's what I would do. Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

    3RZ Engine Tick

    So I have a 3rz and been getting through the noises it makes. I was getting a ticking and it sounded like it was coming from the motor but it ended up being an exhaust leak which is easy enough to find. The 3rz's with the cast exhaust manifold are known to crack and have a leak. Also I had a...

    Do you know how far it sticks out from the rear hatch? I have a Sherpa Equipment Co rack and I would love to have the spoiler if it will clear. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G986U using Tapatalk

    Building new suspension

    Yes you can, it's actually recommended to either use total chaos UCAs or the SPCs. The panhard bar isn't too bad, there's a lot of threads about how to install them. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    5 speed, J shift tcase shifter install

    All you have to do is orientate the shifter so it's on the flat side of the spring. Once it's in, all you have to do is move it slightly back and forth, and it should drop into place. That's how I do mine all the time. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Building new suspension

    Lower ball joints are an absolute must, especially if you're gonna be sending it. The icon setup is really sweet and rides smooth. I personally went the King extended travel route with SPC arms for the adjustment. You'd also want to consider either uniball or SPC super control arms to correct...

    How do you carry your MTB on your 4runner?

    A good friend and I usually throw our bikes in the back. It can fit two pretty easily, even with my subwoofer. I use buckle straps to the tie downs and remove the front wheel. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Dash Cluster Fixes

    1. The clock is super easy to do if you want to spend some time with it. I did what the other member did in the thread bellow, however my clock failed after a month or so of bumpy LA and OC roads. I ended up buying a 4 Pin Harness for cars off of Amazon and soldering wires directly to the PCB...

    Gibson Exhaust- Installation Issues

    Ok so on the back of the frame, there is a metal loop bolted onto the frame, flip that loop 180 degrees. That eliminated my rattle. I'll take pics in the morning. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
