    Clunk when steering

    Thanks for all the input everyone! After posting this, I took the truck to an alignment shop. I let them know the issue. They did an inspection and aligned it. They told me they saw no issues with the control arms, ball joints, tie rods, etc. and they too thought it would be in the steering...

    Clunk when steering

    Hey all, Looking for some help diagnosing this issue. This seems to happen mostly when when moving. Basically when I turn slightly off center to the left and then turn back right again I can feel a clunk through the steering wheel. This doesn’t happen when I turn back left after turning right...

    New CV Axles boots leaking

    I am lifted too. Maybe that plus some full-lock turns cause some leaking?

    New CV Axles boots leaking

    Hello all, About 5000 miles or so I rebooted my driver side CV axle with the Toyota 5th gen reboot kit. Recently those boots have started to leak on the axle sides. I assume there’s still plenty of grease in them since I put them on recently. What do you recommend? Redo the job? Just tighten...

    Rattle sound from rear wheel area

    Hello, Asking for a friend So I have a 2004 limited v8 4wd, no XRES. I also have a 2.5" lift and a magniflow exausht.

    Reboot or Replace CV Axles

    (If this is not the right place for this please move it) Hello All, Just lifted my 2008 4Runner with 210k miles. As part of the lift I switched to Duralast front sway links. I just realized the lower stud is not long enough and the nut can't even fully thread on. Do not buy these...

    What did everyone pay for their 4th gen?

    I got mine in 2022. In California. No further questions. In all honesty, I've been following the Toyota market here in the southwest and I've been pretty happy with what I got.

    Has anyone recently tried CV's sold by Napa?

    Interested since I also need new CVs. But the 5th gen CVs are supposed to fit 4th gens even though the part number is different. They are 330 ish. Still expensive but not 500 through Toyota

    Thoughts on resonator delete?

    I accidentally backed into a rock that bent my exhaust and knocked it off the hanger. To have it fixed I had it turned and the resonator removed. It's a bit more throaty without it, but it's marginal

    Last Minute Advice(Anza-Borrego)

    Easy to intermediate at first. I'm relatively new to this style of off roading (I've been in sand dunes my entire life). Also it's still my daily driver, so I'm ok with pinstripes, but want to avoid dents :laugh:

    V8 knock on cold start? Try this $34 fix first

    Sorry to wake up this thread, but I may have the same issue. Only on the first start of the day (as cold of start as you get in San Diego). Throw it in reverse and I get a knocking like this. Back up the driveway, drive off, and as soon as I get any speed it stops. Also doesn't happen if I just...
