No part of the brackets I made are bolted to the beam inside the bumper. I suppose if you were to use that beam as well the as beam under the rad, it would be plenty secure and shouldn't shake when driving.

The hole that I used on the beam (under the rad) is threaded. Are you trying to figure out if the hole goes all the way through the beam? Can you circle where exactly you're looking.

Cheapest that I could find online was about $69 plus shipping. If somebody from Canada needs one, then it would be a good deal. It is OBO though! :D If shipping would be pricy to the States from where I live, then I could come down on the price.

Glad to hear you are alright! I just rolled my 04 a couple weeks ago too. My sustained a bit more damage than yours though. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/71672-i-rolled-my-4runner-total-write-off-pics.html

I would consider buying another 4Runner if we were only planning on having 2 kids. The wife wants 3 or 4, so the Excursion fit our future needs. We considered the Sequoia, but as soon as you pull anything heavy, you're gas mileage goes to crap. With a diesel it's not too bad. If they offered...

I was able to snag my weathertech floor mats and my Lightforce 170 driving lights. One of them has a broken mounting bracket, but I can buy replacement parts for them. The relay kit I left, but that the least of my worries. I still have my USASpec Ipod adapter installed in it, but I don't...

I don't know what's still good on it. My insurance company gave me $22,000 for it, so I am going to take the money and run! They can do what they want with the 4Runner. They did say that there is $28,000 worth of damage.

It was a very scary crash and definitely an eye opener. Thanks for all of your support and I will be taking it easy on that road frow now on! My wife is a very good driver on gravel roads as well, so I think she will be driving until I get my confidence back.

I guess I should explain this "road" a bit to clear some confusion. It's actually a highway, and it is all gravel. It is 180 miles (300 km's) long connecting 2 towns in Northern Manitoba. The speed limit is 60mph (100 km/h) and it is very common to pass people on it. Who wants to be stuck...

We needed somethig with 3 rows of seating. Something big to haul our expanding family and all of our gear around on our long road trips. Diesels get better mpg than gassers, (The Excursion got 21mpg hand calculated from Winnipeg to Edmonton) so I figured I would give it a try. And no, the...

Hey guys, just stopping in to say that this will probably be my last post. I rolled my 2004 4Runner a couple nights ago and wrote it off. It was a high speed rollover on a gravel road. I hit the ditch doing about 70mph just as I pulled out to pass somebody. The initial impact caused the...

I am running 265/70R17 Nokian Vatiiva's on my 2004 4Runner Sport. I am from Winnipeg as well. For around $200 per tire, they are awesome! They are a great tire that you can run all year round. Even though it's not an official winter tire, the siping is rediculous on them, and they perform...

I just ran my cable into the little compartment underneath the climate controls. Its not a very big compartment, but it's a perfect size for an iPod. You will have to notch out a rectangular hole to get the cable in there.

Thanks! I will try that when I get home.
