Your door lock actuator is bad. It’s a pretty easy repair. Expensive part if you buy new OEM but you can buy aftermarket or refurbished. Refurbishment is basically taking one apart and replacing a small motor in them so you can go that route for a super cheap fix with more involvement. Sent...

It’s not a terrible job to do yourself. Did mine a couple years ago with a mechanic buddy helping me. Took us a few hours if I remember correctly. As far as timing, just be sure to line the marks up on the cams and you should be good to go. There’s not a ton of ways to screw it up unless you’re...

You’d get better replies on the suspension thread for this question. You could probably do what you’re wanting with just the 5100 shocks and your stock springs if you wanted to keep them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rough country xreas compatible 3”/2” lift minus the rear springs. Only 6 months old, as I went to 5100 and toytec springs on front and kept the new rough country springs in the rear. All someone would need are some rear springs or rear spacers. Here’s the link to the kit...

Thanks for this info. I emailed them and basically got told the same thing. Glad you brought this to my attention or I’d have probably installed them on the second clip ring. Shocks came in today, springs and caps should be in later this week. Dreading the install because I don’t have a lift but...

The info I found on them indicated that the bottom two rings on the 5100 shocks could be used for either 1.5” lift or 3”. From website that sells them: “The Eibach 112620 is a 620lb spring rate. It was designed to work with the Bilstein 5100’ s. With the 112620 you have two different settings...

Yeah I’ve already ordered the Toytec coils and some new kyb hats and bushings. I think setting the snap ring on the second setting on the 5100 with these springs will give me the 3” that the spacers gave me. That’s my goal anyway, same height with better ride and damping. Sent from my...

Thank you, I think with what I’m wanting I’m just going to order the Toytec springs and new caps and just build the 5100s that way for the front. I think that will be closer to what I have now than the fj coils. I don’t want the rake and with the V8 I think the Toytec coils with 620lb rate will...

My truck currently has a 3”-2” rough country lift that I installed because I wanted to keep the xreas. Now the shocks are going bad so I’ve ordered 5100s for all 4 corners. The front of this lift is simple spacers, and the rear is 2” lifted springs and shock mount relocation brackets. What...

Give it time? I replaced mine (sensor 1 bank 2) a couple weeks ago. I don't remember the code but that was what it called for. It took about 6-7 driving cycles for the light to turn itself out. Did you clear it and it came back? If so my statement is obviously not applicable

12 years in the family here Although I just acquired it, my 03 limited v8 has been in my family for 12 years. My mother bought it new. I bought it last month with 68k on the clock and needing an O2 sensor. Went ahead and did a timing belt and water pump too (water pump had leaked a little but...

New 4Runner owner here Just bought my moms old 4Runner, 2003 limited v8 with 68k miles. She bought it new and it's been well cared for and garage kept since new. I got a good buy on it of course because she's my mom, paid $10k. Went ahead and replaced timing belt and water pump two nights ago...
