    Center Differential Lock Transfer Indicator Switch Problem

    Just did this repair in my garage and the hardest part was getting the box end of the wrench on the sensor and loosening it up enough to unscrew by hand. After, it was a very easy and quick fix. All in took about 15 min once I located the sensor.

    Tip and Tricks for Silver Lake Sand Dunes

    Thanks for the heads up! Hoping to go tomorrow when it isn't so busy to get a good feel for it all. Excited to try it all out and just generally explore the area. Regarding test hill, is there any tricks to it like better to use 4Hi vs 4Lo to tackle it? Or just in general driving around?

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Did the GROM VLine update for software and firmware and my issues of the UI pulling up when i start the truck have pretty much been eliminated. Before I would get wavy lines against a black screen. The audio would still work most of the time. Before it was about 50/50 if it truly worked or not.

    So just to revive an old thread, I just had the same thing happen to my rig. 2013 w/108k. Ruptured line 2/2 to corrosion as it was a NY truck before arriving here in IL and now my DD in winter and partly throughout the year as well. Took it to my trusted indy, who is a master Toyota tech, and...

    AHC Issues and hopefully solutions

Just looking to save the pump while I drive it to the shop which is about 150mi away as I am out of town. Would...

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Just switched from 35's to 33's since I needed a new set of tires. Went from Nitto Grapplers to KO2's. Sits a little lower but the daily driving feels a lot better and no rubbing so far! The 35's needed replaced due to dry rot.

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Kept it simple and changed the oil, transmission fluid, power steering fluid and brake fluid. Granted now my oil gauge is all over the place now despite it being topped off. From what I have read, looks like either the oil filter or the oil level sender. Will check it out again this weekend!

    What have you done to your 100 Series this week?

    Went with some simple repairs this past weekend and replaced the hood struts with ones manufactured by StrongArm vs. the cheap stuff on Amazon. And went with a K&N filter! Minor things, but easy fixes.
