    Has anyone regretted upgrading to GX 460?

    Last year I was on the hunt to come back to a 4Runner, by trading in my 2016 Tacoma. I had stumbled across the GX platform and had driven a few to end up settling on a 2017 GX460. I honestly cannot say that I regret the upgrade. It's definitely smoother and great for longer road trips as nobody...

    Used cost more than new?

    Just recently thinking about coming back to a 4Runner, would be trading in my 2016 Tacoma. It looks like at most dealerships, the cost of their used 4Runners are more than the cost of new. Am I seeing this correctly or am I truly an idiot? Not sure how high the markup is over MSRP on average, if...

    Hell yes. I've been wondering if the truck would pop up on here. I've been following on Instagram. Congrats!

    Power steering leak stopped leaking??

    Hey guys. Sorry to keep reviving this. It isn't where it connects. I think the power steering lone is just plain rusted through. It is the line that is closest to the driver's side wheel. I have searched whether it is the return line or the pressure line, but I can't figure this out. Is there...

    Power steering leak stopped leaking??

    I managed to get it leaking again and found the culprit. It is the hose closest to the drivers side wheel. It's leaking right where the rubber hose connects to the metal hose. I don't know how I missed it before.

    Power steering leak stopped leaking??

    Oh I definitely heard it and felt it when it was basically empty. When it originally happened, there was power steering fluid all over on the drivers side. I’ll take it out again tomorrow and see if it happens again. As of right now, it’s topped off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I’ll give it some more time on the road. Think maybe it has something to do with the temps of the fluid? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Power steering leak stopped leaking??

    Hey all. A while back my power steering had developed a leak somewhere. It lost all the fluid in a matter of 2 days while driving. I had let it sit because my new job gave me a company vehicle, and I figured I’d go to fix it later on. Yesterday, I added fluid and drove it a bit in hopes to find...

    Lower shifter assembly boot/seal/gasket part number or name

    Im trying to follow along here, I think that the OP back in 2014 was looking for the rubber boot that actually goes on the shift lever?? Im actually looking for the rubber boot that "looks like an accordion" as well for the transfer case shift lever. Did you have any luck in finding that?

    Upcoming Knock Sensor Work

    Might as well check the O-Rings on the injectors after pulling the fuel rail. Moving the fuel rail makes it a lot easier. When I did mine, the top O-Ring on all of the injectors tore, and had to be replaced. Definitely do your gaskets, as well as your knock sensor harness. There is an aluminum...

    What is this noise?!

    I did have the front seal on the transfer case replaced at a shop because at one point there was gear oil sprayed everywhere underneath. Turned out to not be the culprit because after they gave it back, it did it again. It ended up being the seal at the top of the transfer case where the shifter...

    The gear oil in the transfer case is good, as I changed it. I'll check the bolts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I shifted in and out of 4wd today and the noise is barely there when 4wd is engaged. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yea! It sounds like its coming from under you, right? I cant feel anything happening mechanically, it's just the noise.

    I checked out that info, thank you for that. I dont have the ticking/knocking though. I don't even experience any noise when I am sitting at a standstill or even when I rev it up. It literally only does it when I let off the gas and am in motion.
