    What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

    Rocked the full-time 4wd in the Texas snow today. Traction on take off and driving was awesome. Stopping was as expected, like all other vehicles, plan your stops ahead of time..

    Flooded my 4runner passenger side!

    If you can't sort it out you might be able to get it repaired or replaced through your auto insurance. This would be a claim on your comprehensive coverage. Check your policy to confirm that you have the coverage before calling to make a claim. Comprehensive claims generally don't increase your...

    Rock to the Windshield (Darn it)

    I got a small chip in my 2020 at 4000 miles. Got it filled at Safelite ,$0 deductible, Nationwide Insurance. I am an insurance agent / broker and can tell you that in Texas not all insurance companies and policies are equal. Some have deductibles for glass claims (repair or replacement) and some...

    Ceramic/titanium coating on Super White

    I used cquartz uk 3.0 too and did it my self. I have it on my mustang and it has lasted 4 years (the car is garage kept) by using the recharge spray that comes with the kit. I put it on the 4runner as well. The only scratches it seems to prevent are swirl marks from washing and drying. I can...

    case of the rodent

    If you have comprehensive coverage on your auto policy that should cover the cost of the damage minus your deductible.

    New keyless entry keypad from Toyota

    As an Insurance agent, I can assure you that the key pad would be covered during a windshield replacement. Since it is a Toyota part it would be considered OEM and be replaced if necessary. If they didn't consider it an OEM part, most policies cover minor aftermarket parts. Usually up to...

    Paint Protection?

    I did Suntek Ultra PPF on the front bumper, hood, fenders, mirrors, door cups, a-pillars, leading edge of the roof, and rear wheel flairs. This would provide little off road protection. I mainly did it for highway rock chips. I think that the PPF would begin to show wear with repeated off road...

    Does the VIN tell what model you have?

    I am an insurance agent / broker that represents (sells) products from multiple insurance companies. They all have their own rating platform (software) that tries to decipher the VIN's and identify the trim level and all the options installed on the vehicle. Sometimes the systems do not properly...

    The LFD Off Road Thread

    I only used it for installing the two center nuts and bolts of the fairing. They can be difficult to install because of the distance from the side of the truck and the angle of reaching under the cross bar while balancing the nut on your fingertips. I stuck the nut on the tape, aligned it with...

    The LFD Off Road Thread

    I forgot to mention one of the most versatile tools in my tool box. I call it the "stickum". It is a 8" piece if garden irrigation tube with duct tape wound a few times normally then flipped and wound with the sticky side outward. This will help you install the fairing. The "stickum" will hold...

    The LFD Off Road Thread

    From reading on the LFD website the fairing is mostly needed on the aluminum crossbars. I got the stainless steel 2" bars and the fairing to make sure that it would not make any unusual sounds. Maby the fairing will help.
