problem found Apparently on the 4th gen 4runner the part that used to be the resistor (which regulates the speed of the blower motor) is now a blower motor controller. The resistor is still used on the tacoma but the 4 runner must need the controller for the auto feature on HVAC controls...

My blower motor (or something that acts on it) is acting up. One morning, it just wouldn't go, I pulled the relay and put it back in and it worked again. Next day same thing, only this time the fan only runs on hi. Since I haven't had the problem getting the fan to run, but in auto or manual...

FYI...I can see from the pictures that not all the racks are built the same way. All my bars are welded in place. Anyone else who has one chime in, but I would say this thing is very rigid and very fairly priced. As I mentioned earlier, it is steel with powdercoat finish. If you leave it...

I ordered mine from costco too. the coleman sticker peeled right off. Very easy to assemble and install. This is made of powder coated steel, so expect it to rust if left on your vehicle all the time.

we should declare a rename to "cosmetic front valence accessory plate"

I looked at the brackets on mine. they are actually stamped 16 ga steel (1/16" thick) sandwiched under the front tow points. not remotely close to sturdy enough to protect anything. in fact, looks like previous owner hit something, the aluminum plate flexed up and damaged the chin of the...

unfortunately this doesn't work when you don't have a cd changer. I ordered a PIE auxiliary adapter #toy-aux and will post my results of it's install on my '02 when done.

huh, kinda surprised this isn't getting more views. Normally we post about this stuff a lot. Maybe the thread title isn't descriptive enough?

To calculate correct mileage on the odo multiply your reading by 1.033. If your odo reads 250, you will have actually traveled 258 miles approx.

according to this website the difference is 1" I didn't measure the springs directly, but the runners pictured are my former '98 and current '02. I posted the measurements I took in this thread Anyone do the calculation yet to figure how many miles actually traveled vs what the odometer reads?

From what I have heard, the 3.0L V6 in the pre '96 has sludge problems.

I looked at that rack first, but if I understand correctly, I need the surco adapter to mount to the roof. The coleman is $119 delivered at costingtons.

$120 coleman safari rack My wife saw this at the coleman outlet store. Does anyone own one, or put eyes on one? coleman web site

When both are new, 75s are approx 1"taller overall. see for yourself.
