    Need to install a 7 Pin wiring harness on my 02 Sport

    I followed that same tutorial a few years ago. Definitely worth having brakes on this vehicle with anything over 2000lbs.

    Anyone else tow a RZR / UTV / ATV with their 3rd gen?

    You'll be absolutely fine. I tow a 3300 lb enclosed trailer (i have trailer brakes)

    Static while charging phone?

    My new Google Pixel made a lot more static noise than my old Note 4, so I bought a shielded cable. That eliminated 80% of the noise.

    After brake job, master cylinder puffing noise + beep

    Thought I'd update with the resolution: had to replace the master cylinder. I went new through the dealer, negotiated the part price. It was expensive, but my car only has 170k, and is in otherwise great condition, so it should last me several more years. My family friend mechanic did lots of...

    After brake job, master cylinder puffing noise + beep

    After talking with the dealer, they forgot to mention they pulled a bunch of C codes (those don't show up on the engine ecu). They listed them further down in the service report. The codes are: C0279 C1223 C1231 C1244 C1256 C1268 C1340 Is it possible I have a short somewhere? I did pull the...

    best rear coils for towing ?

    906 hands down. I've had them on my 4runner for 2 years now, many thousands of miles towing my 3300lb 7x12 enclosed trailer. When loaded properly, it squats to perfectly level. When unloaded, it has a nice looking rake. Unloaded after 2 years: Loaded.

    After brake job, master cylinder puffing noise + beep

    Yea sorry for the video, I think only I can hear it because I know what it already sounds like. Thank you for the information. I will contact the dealer and see if they can get me in soon. The ABS sensors are both still connected. Engine isn't throwing any codes (Just scanned this morning...

    After brake job, master cylinder puffing noise + beep

    While I was on vacation, I had a family friend mechanic do my front brakes. New calipers, rotors, and pads. Upon receiving the car back, it braked fine, except for a squeal/screech noise while making left hand turns and going straight. Some diagnosis by me (removing front wheel and looking...

    Lasers Beat Rust Every Time

    Ha! I've seen and researched this before. It's an awesome tool, but even the cheapest model (50w) costs $50,000+. The ones used in the videos are 100w -1000w models. Best Rust Remover - Hand-Held Laser Blasts Away Rust However I am confident that someday, maybe in 10-15 years, we will have a...

    97-2002 ?

    For the intended purpose, I'd go for a model that has the Multi-Mode transfer case. The AWD on my 2002 is great in the winter. I do recommend the Andymod on any 4runner with traction control though, as being able to disable TC in some situations is necessary.

    Anyone haul an enclosed trailer weighing 3000-4000lbs?

    I do have temp monitoring [emoji6] I have an obd2 Bluetooth scanner hooked up and an app that shows me my temps. Mine never get that high in the winter. The only time they get that high is when I'm towing in the summer. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

    No issues up here in Wisconsin. You'll definitely be fine down there.

    Anyone haul an enclosed trailer weighing 3000-4000lbs?

    I followed this guide when installing: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/68892-b-m-70268-supercooler-transmission-cooler-install-3rd-gen.html Hardest part was removing my rusted front skid plate bolts!
