Update: Necessity being the "mother of invention," I knew I did not have any baking soda in the house, nor did I have transportation to go get any. So, what to do? I asked myself, what cleaners do I have that behave similarly to baking soda? And that's when I remembered what I did have...

Ah, thanks! And, yes, I do have a Dremel that will work just fine! :tea:

Hello all, once again! :yo: I'm needing some assistance on changing the positive battery connector along with changing the battery in my 2006 4-Runner Ltd. The battery is old and needs replacement. But before it died, it "crapped out," spewing corrosive discharge all over the positive...

Update: The light has been replaced! :party: All I had to do was take the battery off the stand and push it back, and I found I had enough room to access the receptacle. Didn't even have to disconnect th e battery. I can't believe how easy it was to turn it and get the bulb out.... and...

Hey all! Long time no type. I need to replace the driver's front directional signal light. It is definitely out and causes the "fast click" when I use the left side signal. The driver's rear directional signal light is still functioning, and the right side has no issues at all (clicks...

Hey all! Long time no type. I am having the same issue in my 2006 4 Runner Ltd. In my case, the driver's front turn signal light. The rear left turn signal light is still functioning, and the right side has no issues at all (clicks regularly). I'm convinced the bulb needs replacing. The...

It's 14' non extended. I corrected the OP. :)

Hello all! I have an opportunity to do some sub-contracting and I'll need my 3gen 4 Runner to help me with that work. In particular, I need to be able to carry an 14' commercial extension ladder, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to do that. The best I can figure it to try and buy a...

Hi, haven't been on in a while because my 2006 3rd Gen 4R has been running very well. I can't believe it's been over 10.5 years, I've had it, with less than 145K miles, on it. It helped me make a permanent move from NJ to the Tampa Bay area in Florida, last year. I'm probably looking at a new...

All good stuff! Thanks very much! :)

Fair enough. Thanks again! :)

Many thanks, all! :thumb3: I am looking the various equipment options. All of this depends on what the realtor wants me to take out of the house and what is to remain for "show/listing/staging" purposes. If they say, "everything should go," (doubtful) then I may as well schedule the movers...

Hello all! Long time no talk! :D Hard to believe my 2006 4-runner will turn 9 years old this month, with around 120K miles. I know I'm in for a ton of maintenance soon, but today is another priority. For the first time since I bought it, I'll need to use the tow hitch for a small U-Hall...

Thanks much. I'll definitely check that out. It does sound similar. Regards, Arnold

All I have a 2006 T4R Ltd. Over the last year, I have had trouble with the locking gas cap door. It opens fine via the lever when I need to fill up. However, it becomes difficult to close and lock. Won't catch. Don't want to slam it and damage it further. Even if I try to close it carefully and...
