    Long term reliability - How are the 4th gen trucks comparing to the 3rd gen?

    I have a 4th gen V6 Limited, entering my 6th year of ownership. Bought it at 79,000km and it currently has just shy of 170,000km. I've had no major component failures so far. Had to replace shocks as they were leaking around 100,00km. Front wheel bearing changed around 150,000km. All expected...

    4x4 ok at high way speeds?

    Yea, I guess I should still engage it every now and then, won't hurt in the long run anyway. I always utilize 4Lo but haven't engaged diff lock in awhile thinking it didn't need the constant exercise. Thanks !

    4x4 ok at high way speeds?

    Random question....since 4th gen diff lock is an electronic one. Does it still need to be exercised regularly like 4 Hi and 4 Lo? I know those things are mechanical but since its 'electronic' does it need the constant exercise? Thanks

    Prinsu vs Frontrunner Input?

    Have you tried using the search function? not to be difficult or anything but I've found everything I need on these forums or Google using the function. I've recently purchased the Prisnu rack based on the info I've found on this forums, Tacomaworld and Expedition Portal. All the initial info I...

    PrinSu Design Studio Roofrack ** Group Buy **

    I think he told me it was 55lbs. The shipping package is 65lbs, that's including the awning mount. I ordered it first week of April and it was shipped out last week for me.

    What did you do with your 4runner today?

    Wanted to see how my Toyos handled in the snow so went up to a FSR with a friend. It was a beautiful day and all fun until i got stuck in a ditch. 45min later of shovelling and creating a path for traction...it was a beautiful day again lol. Had to do a U-turn around that last picture cuz I...

    06 Limited 4wd 4.0 vs 08 Limited 4wd 4.0

    I have the 08 Limited v6... I know for the 08+ models they have included the VSC off button so you dont have to lock your differential to disengage VSC and A-trac if you needed to.

    BFG A/T's vs BFG Rugged Terrain vs Nitto TGs...HELP!!

    Just my 2cents for the Rugged Terrains...they are not that great in the rain or on any slippery surface. They don't have any sips in them so you might find yourself losing traction accelerating from a red light on a rainy day. I had the LSD kick in quite a few times on turns going up hill or...

    FJ Rims? Why not!

    I would love to have some FJ rims myself. You should powder coat them black, they look awesome.
