Mods - just noticed I should've listed the price in the title. Don't think I can edit it at this point, but if you're able to add $16.8K to the title I would appreciate it!

For sale is my 2009 Trail Edition 4Runner, with 166K on the clock. I've owned this vehicle since 2014, and in that time, it has been a fabulous, trouble-free vehicle. This is a rare 4Runner (more on that below) that I intended to keep it for the rest of my life - I've modified and maintained it...

You sure they don't take the same filter??

Thank you! The lines on that one are a little different, but I have to agree, it does look good (as does your whole rig, actually). Appreciate you sharing!

Hey, everyone - I tried to search high and low for this before posting, so I'm going to feel dumb if this is a well-known thing... but does anyone know what bug/rock deflector and grill is in the video below? I think it's a sharp looking combo and really updates the lines of the 4th gen, so...

Anyone know if Gobi figured this out? I'm still looking ad have been using rail grabs... but I'd be into getting a better solution. I carry 2 canoes very regularly.

Any consideration on this price? Looks like a slick system, but it is more than I can justify. GLWS!

Bump for a price drop - $15k!

Thanks for covering me on this - I was on a motorcycle camping trip the last few days and didn't have much service! Always cool to see a local guy on the forum! And you're spot on - its a V6.

Hey folks - listing a friend's 4Runner on here for her. I hate to see her leave the club, but something tells me she's going to end up with a 5th gen, so I guess I can live with it :cheers: Very clean 4WD 2008 Toyota 4Runner. She purchased the vehicle in 2015 and is its second owner. The...

Others may disagree with me, but a recent experience has me strongly favoring the V6. My Brother's girlfriend just had her timing belt fail after only 30k miles... it didn't break completely, but was shredded for about half of its width. This allowed the crank to slip about 180 degrees out of...

I don't remember, off the top of my head. My spare tire is supposed to be here soon, so I'll try to remember to measure & write it down when I mount it. The 2009 TE is an oddball, so there isn't a lot of info out there, but I can tell you that the outside of the tire sits inside of the fender...

I'm running 255/85R16 Cooper ST MAXXs on my 2009 trail edition. Ive got OME 884s up front with a 1" spacer and toytech superflex (+2") in the rear - it's an awesome setup. I've removed the flaps and done zero trimming - at this point it only rubs at steep turn angles while moving backwards. I...

I've got an 09 TE that looks very similar (though not quite as clean) to the one you have posted here. It's a really neat package -- the locker is what sold me, but I also really like the water-resistant seats and, though I haven't had a chance to use it yet, the selectable ATRAC is also a...
