    Fuel Consumption is high..Solved

    It's also winter now. MPG drops as the air density is increased, requiring more fuel. I see the same thing with my own truck without SC and with my turbo vehicles. Hard to escape it.

    Steering wheel knock offroad

    I have the same thing. Truck wasn't always that way. Based on my research it's likely either slack in the system as was mentioned or potentially wear in the inner or outer tie rods. I've got new inner and outers waiting for install and will keep the old ones as trail spares. Truck has 75k...

    Coilover suspension that holds up well to road salt and winter

    The CRC Corrosion Inhibitor is definitely a good option. It's best when applied to new parts. I contacted them and was told not to put it on top of any rust. Fluid Film or Surface Shield is a better bet there. The CRC product is cosmoline and dries to a waxy consistency and appears to be less...

    How many of you have replaced their plastic oil filter housing?

    Swapped mine out on the first oil change. Cracked one of the ears as whoever did it prior over tightened it. No issues since. No issues with our Lexus that has metal either.

    Falken's Wildpeak 265/70R17 is the way to go

    I run them 15 to 18 psi at the beach and 18 to 20 psi on the trail. Zero issues in either scenario. That includes running fully loaded on the White Rim Road and some trails on the east coast. Been a great tire so far.

    Prinsu Roof Rack squeak on 5th gen

    If it's anything like the Sherpa (also a no drill front foot) then perhaps you need more pressure on the front feet to keep it jiggling (that's a technical term). I had this issue with my Sherpa and once there was more pressure on the front 2 pads it was gone. No issues with a roof top box on...

    Need help with running boards please

    The Westin HDX steps are decent. Definitely better than a 0 degree slider for ingress/egress.

    4runner cold air intake wanted or part#

    If you're referring to the TRD CAI just search "TRD CAI" on the forum and you'll find threads with all the PN's. Or alternatively search google for the installation instructions, all the Toyota PN's are listed. Parts are still readily available online. Just ordered and installed mine last...

    5th Gen For Sale/Wanted Thread

    Trying to install a TRD intake on my 4R. Previous owner installed a K&N intake, so I'm missing the grommets & sleeves that mount the OEM intake. Anyone have a set of these and want to part with them? Will pay for parts + ship or could pick up in CT.
