JBL with all the goodies.

So I have power to the back of the HU. HU will not power up. I'm guessing it's dead! Anybody have a new HU? Need one ASAP. Thanks Jeff

My runner is for sale and I had it detailed. Now I have no radio at all. I've checked the fuses under the hood and they're good. Are there any more fuses? Any other ideas? I have people interested in it, so any help would be appreicated. Thanks Jeff

I just did my year ly smog test 2 weeks ago, it barely moved to needle. I was going to data log our trip on Saturday, but my scanner was logging a customer's car for the weekend. I don't think we will be driving it much over the next month as my wife is due August 1. If we do go anywhere we will...

Update Ok, so Friday evening I dove into the runner head first. I pulled both drivelines and sent them over to a friend to get rebuilt and balanced. I pulled both front cv's and replaced them with new ones. Pulled both front hub assemblies and replaced them with new ones. Pulled all calipers...

I pulled all the tires off Saturday evening. All 8 pads were worn evenly. Being that I am an A.S.E. Master certified tech I do know what to look for. This truck doesn't pulse when braking. It doesn't pull in the slightest when braking or while driving at any speed. There is no discoloration of...

Well just got back from driving it for about 1100 miles. Best mpg I got was 14.4. I called my b.i.l. who works as a manager at O'Reilly's and had him order me in 4 new calipers and performance friction front pads and Wagner rear pads. I'll be putting them on probably next weekend as the shop has...

No your thrust angle is not off enough to be even noticed. When I do alignments, I always give a negative caster split. On my own 4 runner I have -.3 degrees of caster split. This split helps "correct" road crown. All of the other #'s look good on the printout. Jeff

Bringing this back from the dead. Here it is 18 months and 7000 miles later, my mpgs never changed. I'm still getting around 13.5mpg. I've started thinking since mine is a full time awd, that my center diff is acting up. I've checked all brakes, all spin freely. I've bought gas in 3 different...

I have an 04 Limited V8 4x4 103,xxx miles. It became my daily (40 miles/day all freeway @65mph) in August. I was getting 18-19 mpg on 87 octane. In October it started dropping. Now it's down to 13 mpg on 91 octane 12 mpg on 87. In May I changed: timing belt/pulleys, water pump, t-stat, spark...

Thanks. I did just do an alignment on it (with reset to trac control and the such), but never did the full relearn on the windows. They worked.

I have a 04 limited with heated everything. My defrost button for the tailgate, rear quarters, and mirrors is not working. Is this common? Any ideas? Dealer has been no help. Thanks, Jeff
