    Towing questions for you seasoned pros.

    I tow my boat which is around 2800lbs every summer. I go back and forth to a lake about 15 miles from my house and I take that trip about 3 or 4 times a week all summer for the past 6 years. I always have ETC off and overdrive on to be honest I never even thought about turning them on or off...

    Touchy Brake Syndrome

    My 4runner has 232,000 miles on it. I hate to say it but I have done the Tundra brake mod and while the stopping power is incredible compared to those stock crappy ones, I have dealt with the touchy brake thing since I bought it in 2001, even with the new brakes. All the touchiness is in the...

    3rd Gen Automatic question

    Here's what I think it is. While I have never done this on a 4Runner (I'm a proud owner of a spotless '97 SR5 with 230,000 mi) these exact same symptoms were happening with my families 2001 Chrysler Town and Country. at around third gear, you would step on the gas and it would hesitate and...

    6 1/2" Speakers in Rear Doors

    Also, if you are mounting the 1" tweeters in the front as i assume you are, you can pop the black tweeter cover off on the upper part of the door very easily. It is only one plug holding it on at the top you can get a little shim between the door and the black cover and pop it right off. This...

    99' brake problem

    If the above suggestion doesnt work, you may want to check the parking break mechanism called the "bell-crank" located behind the rear brake drum cover exposed to the under belly of the car at each rear tire. I had to change mine over the last winter as they became rusted, corroded and seized...

    6 1/2" Speakers in Rear Doors

    I will be out of town for a little bit but I will post some pics as soon as I can. And as for the 1 inch tweeters I think that they may fit the only tricky part is inside the tweeter cover, there is a support arm that they are mounted on. the tweeter itself fits nicely in there at .75" and going...
