    Seeking Toyota WS ATF or Equivalent Info.

    After much research, even talking to a P.E. I work with, it seems there is no consensus on the actual normal range of full synthetic ATF. With an integrated OEM cooler, 200F is the normal temp. for the engine so the ATF seems to have to get there at least if no aux. cooler is used. I've seen...

    Purchasing 5th Gen Used (What to look for?)

    Remember, there is a difference between accident damage and just general body damage like a shopping cart strike. When I bought mine, it wasn't clear to me which kind of damage that carfax was reporting. After talking with 2 of the salesmen, they convinced me it was the latter and had been...

    Why is trailer connector so far away from hitch ball?

    Never twist chains. That is not how they are rated, tested or are intended to be used. There are zero load cases that require someone to first twist the chains and then apply a load, ESPECIALLY a shock load. Same goes for tying a knot in a strap... Will they function if needed when twisted? No...

    Hayden 699 Transmission Cooler

    Outside temps were around 80F. So two screws into the bumper beam. One into the black bracket at the top and attached with aluminum angle. Screws are sealed to keep water out. Sorry about the pictures being rotated. My uploads all do that for some reason. My phone was in the upright position the...

    Hayden 699 Transmission Cooler

    I will get some pictures after work today. The need for the cooler is because I tow about 2000lbs (including the trailer) and was seeing torque converter temps around 205F. Now I've never seen higher than 168F and that was for less than a minute. There are as many opinions as there are people...

    Hayden 699 Transmission Cooler

    Hey Guys, just wanted to throw this out. I purchased and had this transmission cooler installed downstream of the stock radiator. Massive improvement in temperatures at the torque converter. Highest ever recorded was 168F pulling just over 2000lbs up a hill and may have been in 5th gear (wasn't...

    New brake controller. Runs from an app but not required. Mounts seemingly in any orientation. No rewiring the tow vehicle except for adding the 7-pin. Hardware wise I think it’s excellent. App wise, I think maybe an update broke it... wondered if y’all knew anything about it. E-trailer demo-ed...

    Things you did not know about your 4runner

    Backup sensors work in drive. Don’t believe me? Stop on a steep hill with someone behind you. Not sure if this was mentioned... Surprised me the other day!
