    Latest on Windshield Moulding

    I currently work for service auto glass (basically safelite we are just the warehouse division that handles the glass inventory). Front what I have learned from out inshop techs is that the chrome moulding isn't always the culprit of the rust. 9/10 it's improper installation. Usually a sealant...

    Rod knock?

    Hey guys! Hoping someone can shed some light on the situation I'm finding myself in right now. I have a 1986 sr5 with a 22re in it. On my drive home tonight I noticed a knocking type sound when cruising around 2000rpms that goes away when I start accelerating and comes back when I hit 3000rpms...

    Wandering while tracking

    Mine does the same and when I went in to get it aligned I was informed that the Idler arm and one of the inner tie rods was shot. I would look up from at the steering linkage to see if any of the boots look torn. I know that there are a couple write ups on how to test to see if your idler arm...

    Is this factory?

    So I'm getting ready to replace what I believe to be the factory in my 86 but I'm honestly curious if this is actually the factory radio or not. On crutchfield it asks about a radio with a pocket below or not, so I'm trying to figure out which option I should choose lol.

    New to 1st gens, Idle issue/stall 86 22re

    Welp seemed to have figured it out. After cleaning the MAF sensor, changing the air filter(Honestly I should post a picture, filter was basically black), and getting a temporary cut to fit hose to replace the cracked one leading to the IACV it still ran horrible. So going off what I had read I...

    New to 1st gens, Idle issue/stall 86 22re

    Hello all! Just bought myself an '86 4runner sr5 with a 22re and I seem to find myself in trouble already. I've done some searching through the forums/google and have found some information but nothing that has any kind of clear resolution. On to the issue at hand. The truck runs fine when it's...

    Thanks for the welcomes! I've already learned a few things during my short stay. Like the tires that are on it are 11 years old! Obviously tires are gonna be the first thing to be replaced haha but I've already got a list going of things that I want to do. Nothing crazy but it will be good to go...

    Aged Tires: A Driving Hazard? (MUST READ)

    So glad that I watched this! Checked my tires after the video and came to find out they were made the 7th week of 2001 D: Guess it's time to get some new tires before I take the kids out anymore! Mfg dates are a must check now!

    New to the community!

    Hello from California! I'm proud to say that I am now a happy owner of a 1994 v6 4runner! Took me a while to find a good one(really only about a week of searching but I swear it felt like forever). After getting blown off 3 times by a guy with an 89 4runner and being severely disappointed with a...
