I appreciate that, but approximate location? Front of / behind transfer case cross member etc. I looked but didn’t see it. I’ll raise up the Runner later, but my shoulder isn’t great so don’t want to spend an hour reaching and searching. Back when I had a Jeep, it was clearly visible.

One question, where is the #1 parking brake cable lock but located? Thanks in advance.

Hi all. Thanks for the post on this. A couple of questions. Does everything come with this on the install or do I need an additional kit. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for the shop suggestion, but Carol Stream is 1.5 hours each way. Not quite in the wheel house.

The local dealer is a PITA to deal with. I didn't buy my 4Runner from them and they are pissed. So that isn't an option. I can do it myself, but taking the time out of my limited schedule isn't an option either. I am looking at the 5100 series Bilstein Shocks but time is my enemy. On...

Hoping someone may have experience with a shop in North Central IL, South Central WI, near Rockford. I want to have a lift (leveling kit) installed on my 2013 SR5 4Runner. Thank you in advance.

Great pictures and write up. My parents used to live 30 minutes from there and have been to Hickory Run several times. Cool boulder-strewn glacial lake. Could you hear the water running beneath you while out on the rocks?

We got back last night from our first trip in the T4R. Had a lot of room for all the gear / kids / dog. Plenty of room to spare. Wife was uber comfy and despite it being summer, put the heated seat through its paces. The trip is 310 miles door to door. On the way up I got 22.7 mgp and on...

We will be taking our first real highway trip this weekend. Off to our lake house in Northern Wisconsin so I will report back on Monday. I usually keep it about 70 and if all goes well, it should be a straight shot with no stops between here and there. 310 miles each way with a fully loaded...

I find this whole thing interesting. My wife drives an Acura and it has 125,000 miles with no issues so far. She loves it. Since I got the T4R she wants to drive it more and more. While I was looking at replacing the Accord with a mini-van, she didn't want us to have one so found the T4R...

Sorry, no cake for you. His "party" will be on Sunday. His cake was not a hit as the picture shows. Here is a gratuitous picture of him. I present 1 year old baby Vinosaur

Think this is a great mod. My son is 1 year old today, and also hate when his head flops forward as you described. The wood / towel is a lot more sturdy than a pool noodle. Well done and executed.

I bought my 2013 SR5 with 4X4 and Premium Package (leather, heated seats, heated mirrors, back-up camera, 2 110V AC outlets, nav, moon roof etc)(configure at Toyota.com to see what is available) less than 2 weeks ago. MSRP on vehicle was $39,195 I paid $35,505. I also got the extended warranty...

Thanks all. I know what I want. Now to see if it can be done. I want a low profile full length flat roof rack like the Baja Utility so I can easily mount my ARB roof top tent, but I want a basket area over the moon roof section. They make a shorty version for the 5th Gen 4RNR, but I want a...

That is what I thought I saw from Antman's thread. Thank you for the reply's. I want the longer rack but didn't really want to drill extra holes and pull down the head-liner and bolt through and worry about water. Now to decided. Hrmmm........
