Thanks for the responses. Sorry first post was rushed. Im getting new tires very soon so I will check for play in the 12-6 or 9-3 directions. Last time I checked it seemed to be fine. There is no Sway Bar currently. I replaced the steering rack bushing a few months ago and the nuts on the end...

Can I just remove my cc axles and drive. I have a bad front end noise when the front end flexes going over large numbs at moderate speed. Like pulling out of a Peking lot Ian’s into the street. The front flexes and makes a popping or clanking noise. Also sometimes when I turn quickly at slower...

Need new tires soon. Thinking about ProComp 7069 15x8 with KO2 31x11.5r15. I have 1.25” spidertrax already on. I currently have stock wheel w/ 265/75r16 and they are just past the fender flairs. My math says the new tire wheel combo will be 2.12” further out than now. 4runner is stock height...

Thanks guys. Hopefully I can get these slapped in soon.

I’m putting some Bilstein 4600’s on the front of a 1998 4x4 what bushings do I need for the install? Thanks.

Will OME comfort shocks fit on a stock 98 4x4. They are recommended a lot on here. I don't see our 4runners as an option when I use the vehicle selector on their site though. I'm looking for stock ride quality shocks. Dealer wants 260 per front and 50 per back. Looking for something a little...

I just put some Cover King seat covers on my front seats in Max 4 Camo and they cost me $250. I am about 80% satisfied with them. But I am very very picky when it comes to things like this so 80% satisfaction is a good thing. They have good adjustable attachment straps not cheesy elastic hooks...

Heard back from my dad today and he removed the drive shaft and took it in. They said the U joints were fine (good thing I didn't bet that 100 haha) so they took it to their drive shaft shop. When the guy was checking it he immediately noticed a dent in it. My dad got him to build a new one for...

Shaking at speed My dad had a problem with his 4runner shaking. He bought new tires and replaced transmission mounts and shifter mounts (shifter was shaking). But still had vibration. I asked him if he checked Ujoints and he "said" he did. So I go to house and lay down and look at Ujoints and...

This thread is why my post count is around 15 I think haha. I have tons of questions and my last one was how to use the search function so I wasn't this guy lol. Btw Now I am well aware how to search. I can't comprehend what's going on in some peoples head some times.

Thanks BrianSD, worked like a charm. I didn't know about the search tools on google, that helps a lot!!

Ok. Didn't see the Google Custom Search hiding up there. Thanks and your welcome for the entertainment haha

I must be missing something here. I want to find info on a ARB front locker so I put ARB into the search box and it finds nothing. What am I doing wrong.

I need some help from the t4r brain trust. My dad has a 2000 2x4 4runner w/ about 190k on it. We have three 4runners in the family lol. Anyway, his shift handle is vibrating pretty bad while driving. Enough so that he is considering getting rid of it. He also has a vibration that is coming from...
