Well I went to replace the pads on the other side and found that this caliper was also bad. The inner 2 pistons were seized and not applying pressure to the pad. After replacing this caliper and the pad/rotor truck is like brand new for braking. Feels really good, no pull anymore.

Ok, I replaced the caliper/rotor/and pad. I did not replace the pad on the driver side (good side) yet. Def fixed my fuel economy issue/hot issue but now the truck is pulling to the passenger side (where I replaced the caliper etc) when braking. Is this normal? I only took it about 8 miles...

Thanks for the feedback. I jacked up the car and the driver side tire rotates freely but the passenger side that was hot is 100% locked on. Tire wont budge at all/rotate. Caliper is froze on. Luckily I have a Napa a mile from house.

Yea I am going to take it off right now and verify. I would assume the wheel should freely rotate when brake is off so we will see.

Hello Everyone. I recently noticed this last week a strong smell coming from the outside of my 4runner. I couldnt figure out what it was but now I think I have. I noticed today while braking my steering wheel was shaking slowing. I pulled over to make sure my lug nuts were tight and realized...

Man I got the bulb out and it is bad but trying to put the connector back in is thrashing my hand!

Am I able to access the blinker without taking out the battery? Keeps going in and out, probably needs to be replaced. tried messing with the connector with the room I had but no success.

Going to do this over the weekend. Will post results.

Got a weird issue. my 07 sr5 v6 with just a hair over 100k has a idle issue when on the brake. If my truck is in park it idles around 600rpm and feels smooth as day. Every other time I come to an intersection and stop with the brakes the truck drops to about 400-450rpm and vibrates, about 8...

Ok guys I got a Silver 07 SR5. Got a few questions. I just recently purchased 265/65/r17 Dunlop A20's (not cheap) and had them installed on my factory 17" rims. These tires should swap over to the 17/7 no problem correct? I am also trying to debate if I should do the metallic or the blacks...

Thanks! That looks great. If I find a cheaper set I'm going to grab them.

Thanks for the link. I like the look not sure I find it worth the 1k investment though.

Is it a direct fit? Local guy has a set of 4 with brand new tires for 1k. Is it a direct fit and trying to picture how the 4runner would look with them. I have a 07 sr5 silver with factory wheels/tires right now.

This seems to have resolved my issue also. Thanks for the tip! :party:

I am going to give this a shot, thanks for the idea!
