Thanx bkw!!! PERFECT SOLUTION to a simple problem! I was going nuts with all the threads showing the disassembly of the gear drive to align the little symbol (Triangle) with the mark on the gear housing, yet no one ever identifies what position the roof is supposed to be in! Your writeup got...

Awesome! Thank you all for the fantastic info! I think the 2.0 mod will be in my near future...

Greetings! My T4R is having an (possibly two) issue(s) with the TC. If I start out on a loose surface (dirt or millings) and the wheel(s) spin, the unit kicks into action and retards the throttle / applies braking...needless to say I have almost become a hood ornament on several occasions and...

Thanx! For $138, I will remove the broken tabs and call it a day! Appreciate the assist...the biggest reason I try to stay away from used cars...but for a 3rd Gen, no other choice! Again, thanx for the lightning quick response! Not sure why the pics inserted upside down...so apologies for that!

Greetings fellow 3rd Gen owners...I am in need of your assistance! The attached pics are of my '02 Limited 4x4, I was finishing up putting on poly bushings on the front sway bar when I noticed the broken tabs connected to the frame. My first thought is they might be for a shield (rock, splash...

Here is my story AND thanx to the guys on this site! So, here is my "DOH" moment of the day. After an exhausting and hot day (98 degrees) of Miniature golf with the wife and friends, I "show off" my very cool FOB feature of rolling the rear window down as we are walking up to my 4R. The rear...

Works like a champ! Thanx guys! I was holding the buttons too long. Redid it and only held the FOB lock/unlock for a sec and now it is fully functional! Awesome...love this forum.

LOVE The New Rims!!! Wow, what an awesome difference. No interference issues, just like the other members stated (Thanx!) in this thread. The look really sets off the whole thing and shows off my brake upgrades.

Thanks! After seeing how good these rims look on your 4Runner and since you stated there were no fit issues, I found a set here in Florida on CL! They are brand new, the guy bought his wife a 2015 4Runner with an upgrade package that had 20" rims. They gave him these back with 25 miles on...

Thanks MH! It seems to have worked somewhat. I also tried the other key that came with the Runner. The other key along with making sure the locks cycled fully up and down got me into "Programming Mode," however after many many tries it will not take my FOB. The lock/unlock buttons hold for three...

Greetings! I purchased a 2002 LTD 4WD with 135K on the ODO. After two weeks of rebuilding the front end and cutting the warped rotors I am looking to tackle a few smaller issues. The Key FOB does not work, yes fresh new battery installed. I cannot get the truck into programming mode, I have...

NewB Toy and T4R Owner $8100. Still in shock I dished out that much cash for a USED vehicle with 135K miles on the ODO...What was I thinking? Excellent shape, spent our first weekend together in the driveway replacing all oils, filters and adding 3/4 can of 134A. Also read on this forum of the...

Thank you! I just bought a 2002 Limitied 4x4 (135K miles), she is a beaut and in exceptional condition...but I want to get ahead of any potential issues due to her age! Your link is greatly appreciated! Mike
