    school me on tire pressure sensors & light

    Yes, the TPMS sensors need to be paired with the vehicle. Most tire shops have a device that you go around and stick up against the tire near the valve stem to pair each sensor 1 by 1. Edit: Something like this should work: Amazon.com

    Rust bubble on rear door

    Honestly it looks like it's just on the surface. I would tape off a clean line, sand off all the rust down to bare metal, and then spray it with some matte black paint or something in a pattern that matches the license plate so it's not noticable.

    Serpentine belt correct size?

    The one that is on the vehicle now should have a part #, length, etc. right on it. You have to get it aligned just right to be able to see. My OEM belt that came on the 2014 4runner showed "7pk2150" printed right on the belt.

    How many hours of labor to install rock sliders?

    5 hours. LOL I installed RSG sliders by myself with the truck on the ground using a jackstand and floor jack to support and balance slider. Took me probably 1.5 hours Edit: What manufacturer sliders? The RSG ones have cut outs for the KDSS brackets, etc and I', 95% sure didn't change a single...

    Rocksliders Angled vs Flat

    I've got the RSG angled with kick out and top plate. The kick out with top plate works perfect for the back seats for my kids as a big step. Super happy I went with this setup

    Suspension upgrade separate from alignment

    You are fine installing a lift and then driving, even for a few dozen miles before getting an alignment. If something is slightly out, it's not going to do anything unless driven on for hundreds to thousands of miles. A lot of manufacturers in the car world (lowering normally) recommend to...

    Made in USA air pump for tires?

    Wait, we went from made in USA and not China to Harbor Freight? JK, I also have a VIAIR and it's been great.

    Pardon my ignorance - the 3 small rectangle amber lights in some grills...

    You asked about 3 small amber lights in grilles, but posted a picture of a 4runner with LED light bars, not the marker lights.

    Does anyone have these side steps?

    I would just find a set of OEM running boards. Tons of people have them just sitting around after removing/ installing rock sliders

    Temporarily remove Predator steps

    Not really possible. The material they are made of, the location they are mounted, etc don't make sense for this. You need a dedicated steel rock slider that bolts directly to the frame. There are plenty out there that also have a platform and look like running boards. These ones come to...

    Tires on backorder… Rethink size or brand?

    I am also running the 285/70r17 Falken Wildpeak with 17x8.5 -10 wheels. 2" or so of lift up front and no BMC, no rubbing after trimming some bumper plastic
