It was not alot of snow, but for Phoenix, it was huge! We went 144 days with no rain, so we were very happy! Changing the picture in in the control panel under options I think.....

Ok, so it did not really snow much in Phoenix, but just 60 miles north of Phoenix is a town WAY off the beaten path called Crown King. The family and I decided to drive up there to have lunch since there was a recent dropping of snow, and I had yet to have the 4Runner out playing since getting...

Here is a picture I took before pulling the fuse. It does not look bad, I just like it with the rear raised better. Sorry about the quality, the shot was taken with my cell phone. Oh yea, and I was rear ended the day before I took this picture. FYI, the 4Runner does great compared to the...

When you put the fuse back in, it lowers it back to the factory set location. It does not level it. It had a pre-runner look to it before, and I like the current look better.

It took two years, but the stock tires finally wore down. Now she has Nitto Terra Grappler 265/70 17's and a 2.5" Daystar lift! I have the rear air suspension, so all I had to do for the rear lift was press the up button and pull the fuse. It finally looks "Right" to me!

I Finally Did It! So, after 30,000 long miles, I wore down the stock tires. Last week I upgraded to the Nitto Terra Grappler 265/70-17 and had a 2.5" Daystar front lift installed. For the rear I did the following: 1. Started engine 2. Raised rear air suspension 3. Stopped engine 4...

If that works it sounds like the best solution. Keep us posted if you decide to go for it. Mike

When I get a chance I am going to try the following: 1. Use rear air suspension to raise the rear of the 4runner. 2. Pull the fuse going to the rear air suspension. 3. Drive it like that for a few days. If it stays up and does not cause any other problems I will leave it like that and install...

Yes, my iPod is on the latest software version. Still no luck... Oh well, at least the audio still comes through. Mike

I have the aux-pod from PAC. It worked great in the beginning, but now the steering wheel controls no longer work to control the track selection. They have sent me 2 RMA units, and a replacement cable. Nothing seems to work... Mike

Why would he definitely need an amp? I have used MB Quart speakers in the past, and as I recall they did not need much power to sound great. Just wondering. Mike

The aux-box hooks up like a cd-changer. You press cd once to acccess the built in cd player. Press the cd button again and it takes you to the cd-changer. Mike

Do you know what cable you unplugged from the back? Was it in the back of the dash, or in the back of the 4Runner? Mike

I am happy with the sound quality (as good as CD), but I have run into a few other issues. 1. The steering wheel controls no longer work 2. Removing the key used to put the iPod in standby, but that no longer works. They have sent me two replacement units, and both have been DOA. Mike
