    sunroof drain cleaning

    I used weed wicker line to feed up the lines. Works well. It’s a bit fiddly to feed through the turns, but with patience and time, it works.

    Let's see those black 5th Gens!

    Yep - 2020 Venture @ Hollister Hills in Nor Cal. Bilstein 6112 / 5160’s, 265 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, ARB skid plates (needed them) , Apex Rock Sliders. And a front camera mod - huge help when climbing. Fun day.

    2000 4runner for sale on Craigslist

    It may have a gold brink in the cargo area. Otherwise, no bueno on that price. ��

    My $5 mod in 5 mins.

    If it helps, It’s the same sensor used on 2020, 2021 Camry. I found one for a 2020 4Runner - easier to search the part for Camry. And the newer ones are expensive I thought. I replaced the dummy light sensor on my 2020 Venture and with the headlights on, the dash and infotainment lights...

    2 inch or not 2 inch?

    2020 Venture with 6112’s , 5160’s in the rear - pretty level. Max lift in front, I used 36-281817 Bilstein springs in rear. T4R has KDSS. Also added icons UCA w/delta ball joints. Rides fantastic. Doesn’t squat with 4 adults in it. I haven’t really loaded up much more than 5-600 lbs. I...

    5th Gen 4R Compared to the 2022 Explorer/Aviator - 4R 6th Gen is Here

    Ford - made in Mexico. If you can get off pavement with Explorer, you’ll need to bring parts and recovery gear to get back. Bronco is better - still sorting out many things that come with “made in Mexico”. 4Runner is a body on frame truck type of configuration that you can modify and...

    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Those chrome accent bars come out with a screw and depressing a couple of clips. Plasti-dip or paint off the car if you want. Good move. Looks better!

    Treaty Oak Off-road KDSS leveling kit

    Awesome - thanks. I may add a spacer just to keep geometry as was designed. I think the engineers were smart about the design. Good advice.

    Treaty Oak Off-road KDSS leveling kit

    How much lift would indicate one should use the KDSS spacers? I only lifter mine about 3 inches in front and 1 1/2 in the back to be level. I haven’t had any lean or issues when off reading. Thanks for your opinion. ����

    Oil Change 5th Gen: How To- LOTS of PICS!

    Fantastic “how to” thread. Well done! Lot’s of good hints and ideas too. I’ll look this over when I do my next change as well. This would make me more organized. I did add a Fumoto oil drain valve already. No more crush washer and cleaner to drain.
