    Driving in sand with rear diff locked?

    I hadn’t been using my rear locker hardly at all (like never) but recently while trying it out I found it was quite sticky and would not engage. I had forgotten that 4low is not a locked engagement. Took me about a week of working it to get it smoothly operating again. This was done on dry...

    Has anyone figured out a solution to the excessive downshifting in cruise control

    Just made a camping trip to the Oregon coast( fully loaded up). The supercharger has a bypass that prevents the supercharger from working unless vac goes away. My ultra gauge blue reported the supercharger working through many of the rolling hills we went through without downshifting. Average...

    New shocks = lift?

    Could be the old shocks had failed and sagged out. New shocks restored original height. When I installed my new shocks I measured before and after as they were adjustable and I did not want a lift.

    5th Gen 4Runner w/ a Supercharger or 2025 4Runner Hybrid?

    I’ve had my URD supercharger for a couple of years now. I’ve kept my foot off the gas and am averaging 18 in the city. I have not felt it makes much difference when I am off-road as my speed is much slower. (Forrest service roads) The biggest changes are merging, passing and towing. I am...

    6th gen (2025) 4Runner prices released

    I think at those prices I can rebuild my KDSS system when/ if it ever goes and put a new drivers seat in when it wears out And put a heated steering wheel on.

    Fog Lights: Essential or Outdated? Let’s Chat About Winter Visibility!

    I find that when I need em it really makes a difference. Kinda like the high beams. But having said that, I use them so infrequently that it usually takes a moment to figure out how to turn em on.

    What would you like changed in your 5th gen?

    4.11 gearing for me please. Even an aftermarket would be acceptable.

    Potential 4.10 Gearing Option

    We chased this around a couple of years ago. There was not enough interest then to make anything happen. Now with the new gen coming up I don’t think it will ever happen. I decided to go with the supercharger instead. :thumb:

    1000 watt inverter w/ a 2016... will the alternator keep up?

    Did you use the stock wire or did you run new supply wires and if so what gauge?

    1000 watt inverter w/ a 2016... will the alternator keep up?

    Tagging along on an old thread. I was inspired by Tinker's Adventures on utube and was working out the logistics of changing out the stock inverter (semi sine wave)in the rear of my rig. With a full sine wave inverter I could charge my sok batteries while moving locations to camp. I would...

    Official Reveal Thread 2025 6th gen 4Runner

    Regarding the diff size. If they didn’t get it right it will make for some interesting YouTube videos. It looks like the rear window still rolls down. The wheelbase increases may have been dictated by the towing capacity increase. I don’t have any plans on moving from my 5 gen. :hiding:
