    4th Gen Suspension Options/FAQ

    I am interested in the response too. I also have OME 883 with Billstein struts and shocks. I originally read that the Cruiser shocks would lift the rear 3/4 inch. I ordered and returned the OME 895e—for the Cruiser and 4 Runner because they lifted the rear 3”. I ordered the OME 895 hoping that...

    Are OME 895E coils good for 2010 4runner?

    OME 895e It’s likely that the OME 895E will give you more height and add a washboard ride. I realize that model year will come into play but they are promoted as just a 1.5” lift on older 4Runners 03-09 but on my stock 07 4Runner it was more like 3” height. When measuring the spring it has...

    Rustbelt 07 4Runner Tailgate handle repair

    I should of known better but when I saw an 07 4Runner Sport for sale a few years ago (with excellent maintenance records) it was a match! And it looked and drove great from Chicago back to Washington State. After a falling in love with the ride and gas mileage, the honeymoon maybe over--she is...

    4th Gen Solar Generator For Battery While Camping

    Not exactly sure which 4Runner years or models have the double hooks, maybe it’s the Sport models. The panel is held tight against the headliner and you need to work it in from the front to aft alternating both ends until it’s centered between the hooks. The legs that fold down rattle when...

    4th Gen Solar Generator For Battery While Camping

    Developed some concern about my 4Runner battery drain-operating and charging small devices while camping. Hate those RV generators and wanted to go solar. I had a conversation with a couple RVers at a motorcycle rally about the differences between solar panels-the advantage of those that...

    Phone Mount--Left Side

    Yes, that looks pretty slick. I assume it’s a metal base that a phone holder like a ProClip would mount to? Looks like it mounts below the bottom screw on the handle. Tell us more.

    Phone Mount--Left Side

    Thanks for the reply. Ya, I think the length of the Ram mount and not attaching to a ball with a solid hold was my problem. I like the height of your setup better but not going to throw money at a shorter double socket Ram right now.

    Mods for 4th Gen Platform Bed

    Table For Platform Bed Need a table for a small DVD player in my 4Runner and have a long Ram double socket that did not work out for my phone. Ended up mounting a Ram Ball to the 6mm screw inside the hole that supports the cargo cover screen. Cut a small piece of plywood for a narrow table...

    Phone Mount--Left Side

    Left Side Mount Just the light playing tricks-it’s all grey. I need to add that my Long Ram Mount is not working out as I thought it was. Instead of deleting this thread I think I need to update my remarks about the value since there are some that did a better job of attaching it left side...

    4th Gen 60 Side Platform Bed Build

    It’s 6’ which just fits. I slept on the same bunk mattress in my truck canopy without issue but the lift gate does have a curve to it which might be a little restrictive-we’ll see. Heading into the mountains next week! I’m 5’10” but for a guy any taller it would be tight for sure. The front...

    Phone Mount--Left Side

    Not happy with phone mount options to the right side of drivers seat and have been looking for an option that would get the phone higher and left of the steering wheel--in line with the A pillar to minimize any visual impairment. My first attempt was a magnet mount on the left vent which...

    Mods for 4th Gen Platform Bed

    Additional Mod for Camping Last night a light bulb went on in my thick brain and I realized I could easily hook up my Satellite Radio to the constant power and run an audio cord from my the radio to a Bluetooth box (I have a couple of these portable Bluetooth boxes we used to use for picnics)...

    Momentary switch Reply to Codeman528: Thanks for your response. I used several threads from searches for lift gate switch. But the one that explains it pretty well is this link: Interior Rear Hatch release Button There are other threads that show 4th Gen wiring harness pictures that I...
