I think I just sent you a PM, but it doesn't seem to be in my sent items. So, as backup, waving a flag that I'm interested, just in case you don't see a message from me.

Even better, I come back today to realize that I replied to the thread with a picture I already used. I'm on fire right now. mikeisspeaking Are you/did you try to pull the servo out as part of the larger bracket/mount to which it's attached, or just the bracket attached to the servo itself...

Oh, I feel like a horrible person. I totally forgot about this - agh. I attached a photo of the mount with the servos. Are you talking about the bottom point (very bottom of the picture)? That stupid, awful thing is a nut on the end of a mounting bolt that feels almost exactly like a screw...

I just today finished removing the blower assembly, swapping out the vent control servo and replacing the housing, all without removing the dash. I followed the process outlined by Alldata, which you can access for free via AutoZone's repair instructions for the blower assembly. Or, if you...

Sorry for the long delay. I do have pics of the locations. This is the servo location relative to the rest of the dash. They're essentially just inboard of the glovebox, but up in the area where the "hidden compartment" is, rather than the main box. The upper black box is the servo I...

I don't know if this relevant to your issue, but I just pulled out my blower assembly to replace the upper of the two vent control servos. Out of curiosity, and perhaps a desire to make the failed servo pay for it's insubordination, I took it apart to diagnose the cause of failure. The full...

Is it coming from the right hand side of the dash? Loud enough that it's almost hard to talk over? Does it stop when you change the vent settings from top vents to bottom or vice versa? If so, I'm having the same problem and believe that it's related to the blower motor. Servos in the motor...

I have the PowerStop cross drilled and slotted rotors on front and Powerstop's standard flat rotor at the rear. I like the setup, but I'll confess that my rear pads were pretty worn and my front rotors were too small when I bought the car, so anything with correct fitment would have been an...

The wires aren't coax or anything like that. There's a white and black wire heading into the harness. They're likely 18-24 gauge stranded copper wires. If you're going to try and splice a section in as a repair, it's probably worth getting some heat shrink butt splice connectors. Also, not a...

I'm with Toyo on this one. Just to clarify - when you apply pressure to the brake pedal, the pulling stops, correct? If so, it sounds like your front passenger caliper needs a rebuild because the piston is sticking. I don't know of any way to check this without pulling off both front wheels...

For what it's worth, I had the same problem on all four of the cam/caster adjustments on my LCAs and ended up having to cut them out. Which I don't recommend doing. Ever. Take it to a shop to have them handle it. After a full day of PB blaster, hammering, heating with a torch, hammering some...

I had similar pedal feel in my 2003 Sport V8 which has appears to have been resolved after I installed new pads and rotors on the rear axle. As an aside, I have zero familiarity with 4Runners prior to purchasing my current vehicle. I initially thought the soft pedal problem was due to smaller...

Not sure if I'm actually being helpful here, but I'm running a Pioneer double din with the same issues. I bought the car with the setup already installed, but there was an aftermarket amp that had been removed at some point. I think it was driving the rear speakers and sub (as I don't have any...

+1 on the good news. I either have a manifold gasket leak or a cracked manifold, so I'm going to be pulling these off at some point anyway. Would love to have a header I could swap in, rather than just bolting the stockers back on.

Might be moot, given that you're planning on doing the work today, but I had a CV axle replaced after installing my UCAs. The boot tore either on my trip back from Cali or just before, but I didn't notice it until the upper ball joint (which needed replacing anyway) replaced. I'm used to a...
