Dredging this thread back up. We got a bunch of ice 2 days ago. The night before I left the wipers on. The next day with all of the ice on the windshield, I started the Runner to deice everything and did not notice the wipers still on. I came back out about a half hour later and there was...

Just replaced my blown stock sub with a Rockford Fosgate PS3SD2-8. No mods needed. Just trimmed the old wire connectors off and inserted into the RF sub. Easy and sounds sooo much better. Now to find why my carpet is all soaked back there...

We should change the topic to "Where do you mount your weapon in your 4Runner?" Right now, I just keep my G23 in the center console while driving. Thinking of mounting a cheap kydex or making one for the console. Also been thinking about buying a cheap wheel gun for inside the useless...

You no longer at Toyota of Greenville? I'm at Lexus of Greenville.

Checking in for Greenville area. Any good spots to do a little offroading? Just moved here a month ago.

Everything stock but the Budget Boost. I think the General Grabbers are like the BFG's, with a more square tire that rubs more or something...

Mine rub big time. I removed front mud flaps and pushed the wheel liner forward and that helped a good bit, but they still rub. I've been towing a trailer a lot lately so I've been turning the wheels to full lock quite a bit. It only rubs at close to full lock. The rubbing is getting on my...

I just yell "Get in the BACK!!", about 100 times each road trip. Keeps the hot breath off your neck temporarily.

Got the 3 studs pulled through.:thumb3: Both Autozone studs snapped at about 95% seated. Was able to get the NAPA ones in. Now I'm trying to get the parking brake back together. Managed to lose one of the shoe spring retaining clips so I'm rigging one up for now.

Picked up one of those too. I'll give it a go in the morning when I can see some thing out there.

Impact stops making progress. Breaker bar, I pretty much had all my 200lbs on it and I started to think I was going to snap a stud. I've got a pitman arm pullers and some various other pullers. I went to autozone and picked up 2 more studs to see if they would be any better, along with some m12...

That is a concern. Either stretching one or snapping a new one. Impact is a Craftsman pneumatic set on the highest setting. No electric stuff here. The only one I could get half way in was with a breaker bar + a cheater pipe on the end. I may go buy another brand of stud and see what...

They "look" the same, but hard to really tell for sure. The washers were bigger than the stud. They are galvanized washers and seem pretty soft so the nut was digging right into them. So then I tried a closed-end wrench as a spacer, but thats eating up the lug nut. Something isn't right...

Hey fellas, Trying to replace 3 wheel studs on my rear wheel. I cannot get any of the new 3 studs to pull through the flange. I've tried with a breaker bar (with a cheater) and with an impact. They'll pull through about 1/2 way but that is it. What they heck am I doing wrong here? I'm...

Thanks!!
