I also am guessing that the pad wore all the way through, and the piston overextended past the fluid seal. Happened to the rear caliper of my brother's Tundra because he only ever took it to JiffyLube

Looks awesome! I might need to look into this in the future. They will gain shine with use. In my other car, all the touch points of leather surfaces are shinier than the parts that don't get touched.

I feel like I had some trouble finding the OEM and AVS ones. But Also, I kind of like the look of the larger ones. Ended up getting the Husky brand for around $70. It's nice and think and looks like it fits. Seems like the included clips could be a little more robust, it it ain't going anywhere.

Nice, so you are using it :D Yesterday (not today sorry) I took it off-roading for the first time ever lol. I've had it over a year but was busy remodeling my house. Plus I intended it to be a daily, not a rock crawler. That said, exploring fire trails and logging trails in the Sierras is a...

There must be a way to archive it all. I can't stand reddit, and especially not facebook gorups for cars. Sounds like kids asking the same 4 questions, and adding an irrelevant "pic for attention".

Funny...I was just thinking the other day about asking on FB or Reddit what forums people were using for 4runners, because I feel t4r is borderline unusable with all the ads and glitches. Would like to not have a full screen ad for "visceral fat loss" or "early alzheimers" pills every time I...

Not sure if it helps but one of the comments in this thread kinda helps. Removing the inside panel on the hatch, using needle now, trim tool, and 10mm going around the trim panel. https://www.reddit.com/r/3rdGen4Runner/comments/16nxhl8/pro_tip_you_can_replace_the_rear_license_plate/ I need to...

Thanks guys! I think it's worth it. I was debating having a body shop sand and clear, but figured that'd be $1,000+. Eventually, in a few years, I'll probably have the whole car totally resprayed. But until then...this works. If you do this DO NOT USE the included applicator pad. Use a foam...

I used the wipe on. I was worried about overspray floating around in my garage haha. Plus when I was done it was nice to go around and spot treat some random scuffs to blend them in a little better.

After much thinking (and targeted ads lol) I had some time on Sunday to give Poppy's Patina a try on my terribly flaking clear coat. I did a sh!tty job on the application but I am very happy with how it turned out. You can definitely still see where the old clear coat flaked off, and the...

I've had my TEQ headlights almost 6 months. I love them!! I think it is the cleanest, most OEM-ish looking option to get projectors. Much better at night, especially the hi beams. Hoping they last longer than 2 years! I plan to unplug the daytime running light wire so they only go on when I...

Nice, sounds like a good solution. I did something similar, here are some pics of how it looks.

Same here. I can access the first 100 pages of the "all questions allowed" thread but 101 and on is forbidden? I literally made post there a few weeks ago, and now I can't get to that page, so I know this is a new issue. Strange....

Alright I have confirmation for the center hub cap for the coke bottle 5 spoke from the '01-'02 sport edition, also seen it called the flower 5-spoke. I ordered a set and they arrived today, they are correct for the coke bottle sport wheels. It is Toyota part # 42603-35760 This will fit only...

Thanks, but no thanks. That is the style I already have. I am looking for 96-98 front bumper.
