    06 SR5 v6 towing question?

    Went camping in our popup a couple of weeks ago down in WV, and the drive was across some of the hills/ridges/mountains in the Shenandoah and Appalachian ranges. Biggest changes in elevation were roughly 1200 to 3000 ft MSL. Some elevation change profiles are below for this trip. Via 39 -...

    Fumoto Oil drain Plug F103 issue/question

    Good report here as well. I have had the F103N in the truck since the first oil change. No problems. Do you have a pic of it with your drain plug?

    Anyone have Bridgestone Dueller AT Revo 2's

    New Revo AT2 rubbber looks good to me

    My neighborhood is never plowed. All of the snow is packed down into what eventually becomes 6-8" of ice. The tires are excellent on this type of ice. Sometimes it is frozen hard, other times it has a slippery water layer on it. I feel very solid driving around on it. Pretty much the same...

    New Revo AT2 rubbber looks good to me

    Wow! It has taken me a while to get back to this thread (for a lot of reasons...). So far, I have enjoyed the Revos in: - 18" of snow we had here in DE in Dec - 30" of snow in the mountains of WV in Dec - 25" of snow we had here in DE in Jan All I can say is that these are great tires...

    My humble 2007 V6 4WD Sport - Front hitch receiver installed

    Glad to hear about your new 4R! It took HOL a couple of years to get the front hitch package engineered for the 4th gen. I believe _JT_ has a friend or relative custom fab his front hitches. That may be the most expedient thing to do. Getting one made (or an angled arm) to move the basket...

    2007 Sport needs new tires. Any suggestions?

    I just put 265/65/17 Revo AT2s on my 2007 Sport this week. Very pleased with my decision. Much better grip, responsiveness and road feel than the Dunlops. Here's the link to my pics...

    New Revo AT2 rubbber looks good to me

    I have only driven around 30 mi so far. Very quiet tire. Very solid ride. One of the first impressions was that they seem to grip really well when turning (more responsive steering). Yep, I still like front hitch. Did not use it as much for fishing this year as I did for hauling other stuff...

    New Revo AT2 rubbber looks good to me

    After reading, re-reading and generally abusing the search engine on this site, I decided on the Revo AT2s over the BFG KOs. I always ran the KOs on my Tacoma, so this was a really hard decision. Came down to how my driving has changed since getting the 4Runner. I'm stock, and this is the...

    SPOTTED Thread

    Cape Henlopen surf fishing Spotted -- and talked to -- a guy in a 4G SR5 last Sun. Got so caught up in talking about the blues, I forgot to ask about t4r.org ! Was that you, _JT_ ? Looks a bit like your rig in one of the threads about surf racks. twfran

    Emergency Brake Light appears randomly

    I had a similar problem in my '99 Tacoma. Added some fluid, but it did not solve the problem. Finally did brakes all around (it needed them badly!) and no more light. Probably something to do with the very thin pads, calipers and/or needing to be bled down.
