Probably not interested, but thanks for the offer! Good luck, they look like a great set of rims. I just put a set of winter tires on my 2000 SR5 and wanted to get another set of rims to use for summers so I don't have to go to the tire shop.

Dang. I wish you were in SLC/Provo area of Utah.

Didn't think of that... That's a great idea. That front wheel shouldn't spin if the AC clutch is disengaged. Thanks.

Okay, sorry if this has been covered somewhere else. I think my AC compressor sticks on for some reason. Maybe it just circulates? I'll be driving down the road and I'll hear a slight sound like when the AC compressor clutch engages, like a faint "ch" sound. I used to notice it when I...

FS: 3rd Gen Steel Rack for Tepui RTT Utah County, UT - $20 I bought a Teupui RTT a month or two ago, and had a custom steel rack made to mount it. It's actually pretty dang stout. I'm at work now, but will try to post pics later. It has a detachable section that bolts to a tepui tent's rails...

Lifesaver! I'm glad I found this post. There's another one in the forums that must be for a different model or something, and it gave me a false sense of hope. Ha! The write up above is good. I'll add my notes in case anyone does this same thing. I got my replacement actuator from RockAuto...

Are these instructions for non power locks? Awesome writeup, but I just did this repair on my 2000 SR5 with power locks, and It wasn't nearly this easy. Maybe it's just me, ha! It ended up being kind of a pain, and took a couple hours for me. Not that bad, but as you can imagine, getting in the...

You guys were right... Took it into the shop today to have them check it out. Axle seals were leaking, with the gear oil soaking into the brake pads. Ended up getting new drums (old ones too thin to machine), new shoes, seals, etc... $800+ I should have figured it out myself and rocked it in...

Update Is it possible that it's a sticky parking brake? I know the adjuster is activated when you go into reverse. Maybe it's dragging? I don't ever smell anything hot. My truck did this twice today, enough drag somewhere to keep me stopped on a hill that was about a 6% grade. I'm going to have...

Okay, I tried to see if this was in the forums, so forgive me if I just didn't see where this has already been discussed. I bought a 2000 4Runner two weeks ago. Manual transmission. Everything seems great so far. The only funny thing is that twice now, when I've been parked on a hill for a few...
