    What's causing this tire wear pattern? Alignment or tire pressure?

    I'm lost...the outer edges are the areas that are more worn. Looking at the tire, I initially thought it was the middle of the tire that was worn (because of the darker color), but looking closely and feeling the tread, its actually the outer edge. If you look at the 3rd tread up in the 1st...

    What's causing this tire wear pattern? Alignment or tire pressure?

    Why do you say that? I'm trying to understand what's going on if/when I have to go back to the shop.

    One of my in-laws is a marketing executive at a Fortune 500 beverage company. The company spent $2.5million last year LEGALLY buying consumer's "personal" info. It is purchased from car dealerships, grocery stores, banks, restaurants, universities, every social media platform, etc, etc, etc. The...

    What's causing this tire wear pattern? Alignment or tire pressure?

    2017 TRD Pro with about 500miles on new Wildpeak AT3W's (LT 275/70/17 C-load). Just today I noticed what seems like the beginning of an uneven wear pattern. Only seen on 2 tires, mainly the front drivers side, and slightly on the rear passenger side. The edges look and feel scuffed versus the...

    Upgraded from 265s to 275s. lost acceleration and mpg

    I went from the stock size Terra Grappler G2's to the Wildpeak AT3W 275/70/17's C Load...lost about 1/2 - 1mpg doing my own calculations on every re-fuel. (Can't trust the on-board cpu calculations with non-OEM size tires) Have noticed MAYBE a little decrease in acceleration, but it could also...

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    Looks like a weekend project. If I F something up, I don't think I can drive to work with without an instrument panel. Coincidentally, as I'm looking at some threads showing how to take it apart, I think I may have other bulbs out. My tachometer and speedometer are very dim towards the top...

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    Thanks for the confirmation. Not really sure what's going on then. If the locker and overhead button are mechanically functioning correctly to engage/disengage the locker, what else would cause no indicator? I hate the thought of having to pull the gauge cluster just to check the bulb. Is there...

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    Didn't even consider that possibility, but I hope that's the issue. Playing around more today, I can 100% tell that the locker is actually engaging. There actually is a slight clunk once I turn slightly while moving forward or back, and I can also hear it disengaging. It doesn't happen...

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    Re-reading my post, I worded that like an idiot lol Let me try again... First, the rear-locker light never comes on, never flashes, nothing...no matter what mode/gear I'm using. Second, the ABS light does not come on just by shifting into 4Lo. (Others have mentioned that they get ABS light as...

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    I'll admit I'm not familiar with 4Lo, but in comparing 4Lo with and without the locker button pressed, there is a clear difference. I played around with things more today, tried varying methods of trying to engage the locker in park, neutral, drive while stopped, and while slowly driving...

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    No reason in particular other than not knowing how to use it lol. But would that really cause none of the indicators to function? I guess I'll have to try it again tomorrow.

    E-locker light not flashing and not lit...but locker still engaging???

    I've only had my '17 TRD Pro for about 4months and used the locker today for the first time....I think. It seems like the locker is engaging, but no indicators at all other than the ABS light coming on (which I thought was supposed to come on once you go into 4Lo, although it did not). Shifted...

    Will Falken Wildpeak AT3W rub?

    Wondering the same, hopefully someone can chime in on this. I've had a few people tell me I would have to remove the front mud flaps and push the fender liner forward to avoid rubbing, but apparently the pre-2019 TRD Pro's are 0.5 to 1inch higher up front than other trims from that year. If that...

    Best rack/accessories to load and transport an 85lb Hobie kayak???

    That was the option I was leaning towards as it seemed like the simplest design. Did you have a rear spoiler on your 4runner? What crossbars and saddle mounts were you using? Almost all the mounts are rated for "up to 80lbs". The Outback is 85lb and I know the Pro Angler is about 110lb. I'm...
