    Battery light blinking on and off, grades and brakes?

    Hey guys, I’m wondering if anyone has had this issue and knows what it could be. I replaced my alternator about six months ago and now all of a sudden last night the battery light has been coming on and off when I drive particularly on grades in the mountains and braking.

    Stock roof rack with heavier duty rails? Does this exist?

    I saw a video of a 4runner with stock sides of his roof rack but beefed up steel cross member rails with different attachment points of gear. I want this for my LX but can’t find anything. I do not want to spend $1k plus for a roof rack if I don’t have to. If this doesn’t exist for the 100...

It’s more spongy like the comfort setting Isn’t...

    Hey guys, I have the kind of hitch that has the ball and inserts into the hole and then a pin behind it to hold it in. Somehow or another in my move I lost the hitch insert.

    Brake master Assembly Removal Issue. 05 LX

    Hey guys, I feel like an idiot. I followed Timmy, the tool man’s video to the tea, and although it’s a little bit different for an 05 the general gist is the same. The problem came when I went to remove the bolts inside on the firewall. I have no access to the passenger side, upper or lower...

    It looks like we will be moving about 150 miles away and I’m going to have to keep my work down here until I can replace the income closer to home. Which means I’ll be driving about 500 miles a week and we all know the gas mileage stinks but that’s not even really the main issue. The wear and...
