    Emergency brake hitting stud

    Thank-you, I did use an aftermarket napa hardware kit. I thought something wasn't installed correctly, but the aftermarket parts makes sense

    Emergency brake hitting stud

    The brake shoes were fine it was the hardware that rusted apart, mainly the pins inside the springs

    Emergency brake hitting stud

    I recently had the e-brake hardware replaced, and now one of the wheel stud heads is hitting the top hat on the e-brake. Anybody have a similar issue, not too sure what to do

    Towing 4k boat with 4runner

    Made the hour and half trip back home with no issues. Majority of the time I just kept it in 4th gear with a few times going down to 3rd just so I could pass people. Kept the speed on the interest between 60-70. I did notice if I went over 75 I would get a little more sway but nothing crazy

    Backup camera 4runner specfic

    I would really like to install a backup camera and my plan is to replace the rear view mirror with one that has a monitor inside the mirror. Searching amazon i saw these. Wondering if anybody had any experience with them? Or should I just get a universal camera

    Towing 4k boat with 4runner

    Picking up a 19 foot deck boat that I would guess weighs around 4000lbs total with trailer, and only vehicle I have is my 07 v8 4runner. I know the 4runner should be able to tow it but being a 15 year old vehicle I wanted to see if there is anything I should check before I tow? I have kept up on...

    Diff/transfer redline oil

    The noise is not speed related, makes the same type of noise if stopped or moving

    Center dash sounds like a sewing machine

    Lately when I start my 07 4.7 4runner I get a faint clicking sound, sounds just like a sewing machine somewhere in the dash. Kind of sounds like it is coming from under the radio. It goes away about 5 minutes after driving, and seems to make the sound especially when the 4runner has been sitting...

    Towing 4runner V8 vs 3 gen Tacoma V6

    My wife is looking at a 17 Tacoma double cab v6 and i currently have 07 4runner v8. Wondering which one would tow more comfortably? We currently tow a 22 foot pontoon with a weight of around 3500lbs. Tacoma has the longer wheel base, but for 4runner has more torque.
