    Trd pro like grill

    Interesting. I couldn't find any photos so it is hard to tell as the ones from the link just indicate a pin coming out the back. I reached out to the vendor to see if they have any additional photos or details. If anyone has one and could take a photo of it for me, that would be awesome...

    How do they attach to this grille? The OEM badge clips into the OEM grille but I don't see how these attach to the TRD grille as it looks just like pins? I appreciate the info!!

    How did you re-attach the V8 badge to the TRD style grille? I'm looking at replacing my OEM due to age/cracking and considering this but haven't found any info on easily attaching the V8 badge again.

    Highest Mileage 4th Gen?

    Be careful using this as a tow vehicle as the payloads are usually quite low - to the point of being unsafe. I had a Rockwood 2109s and after loading it up, I would have been about 300lb over the payload despite being well below the actual GCVW limits.

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    So I finally got under it today and theres definitely a few things I noticed. - Passenger side has grease ALL over so it looks like the cv boot on that side. - Passenger side caliper pistons move nicely when I manually tested - Driver side lug nuts SOMEHOW were all loose - thankfully i...

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    Thanks for the feedback/direction. I have not ordered anything yet as I am trying to confirm the cause as much as possible before I spent this type of money. Thats on my plate this morning. I have replaced the drivers side caliper with a re-man'ed one years ago due to one of the pistons...

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    Correct that part does include both. I wasn't sure if getting separate was the way to go (if one of them doesn't fail as often as the other and it wasn't worth it). Good thing I have no interest in getting rid of this thing as this is an expensive repair.

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    Partznet shows them as individual components which is why I had asked. If they list it right, MC is 47025-60081 at $1222 and the Motor/Pump (Brake Booster) is 47960-30030 at $1184. Not sure if this link will work but this is where I was looking: Hydraulic System for 2005 Toyota 4Runner |...

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    Is there a chance this could be the brake booster instead of the MC? I tried depressing the petal and starting the truck and the petal did move quite a bit which is what the threads say would indicate the booster is functioning ok? Is there another test I could perform to try to determine...

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    No leaking from what I could tell anywhere and fluid levels haven't changed at all (when looking at the reservoir). I looked it up and it was about $1200 on average for a MC/abs unit. Not sure if theres value in having a shop take a look at it vs just buying the replacement unit and installing...

    Random Soft Brake Petal

    My '05 has been running great however yesterday I noticed while driving that when I hit the brakes it felt pretty soft and I had to push the petal down much further than usual. This seemed to be pretty random though as certain stop signs/lights I would stop fine, others I would have to jam it...

    sport x-reas questions

    I actually replaced my xreas on my '05 sport back at about 130k. Cost me about $1700 if i recall. I didn't have the time to research something that would be as comfortable and so i just kept it. The lines were good, everything else got swapped. Some (most here actually lol) would say it is a...

    Need to replace exhaust due to rust 03 V6

    That's exactly the reason i put oem on mine. I was originally in Philadelphia and the Northeast where everything under the vehicle rusted to crap. I live in Vegas now and over the years slowly replaced everything under there that rusted. The oem stuff lasted way longer than i expected given...
