    89-94 Pickup Console Cup Holder

    We have been making cup holders for the 2nd Gen 4Runners for close to 10 years and have recently been asked if we will make similar ones for the same years pickup. The storage console on the SR5 pickup does not match the 4Runner since the 4Runner has a very shallow compartment due to the rear...

    Need some help with Surf R&D Cup Holders

    We have been getting constantly (almost annoyingly) asked when we will be make cup holders for the Surf like we make for the 3rd Gen 4Runners. We have started work on the Surf product line but we now need a Guinea pig for product testing and feedback. Are there any guys on this forum with a...

    Badges are available again

    Some of our early TOYOTA badges for the early pickups and 1st Gen 4Runners were taken down a few months ago on our etsy and ebay pages. Toyota got real aggressive about using their name on anything. After a few months I was given the green light to repost those products. Not sure what changed...

    Rear Hatch TEQ badge?

    We had a customer reach out to us overseas and ask for a rear TEQ badge for his 2022 cruiser. We ended up making him one and the word got out that we had done that. We got an order for an overseas group wanting a batch so we made a large batch. Most shipped out in the order but we have around a...

    Fuel pump assembly part #?

    We are having fuel issues with our 93 cruiser. When we pulled the fuel pump from the tank the entire assembly is completely rusted. We weren't getting the low fuel light to come on and realized that little wire at the end of the sensor has completely disconnected from corrosion. The float for...

    Hilux Surf B-Pillar Badges

    It's been a while since we released the 1st Gen 4Runner b-pillar badges and they have sold really well. Throughout this entire time we have constantly been getting asked to develop the same badges for the Hilux Surf. We finally had a some free time to do that and released them today. Not sure if...

    Cup Holders for the pick up? (89-94)

    I have been working on developing a single cup holder and double cup holder for the 2nd Gen 4Runner (1990-1995). I have gotten a lot of requests to expand my product line for the 2nd gen guys. As I did some research I noticed that the console of the 89-94 pickup has similar to identical features...

    Electrical Gremlins. New Alternator?

    So my 97 is having an endless downward spiral of electrical issues. When I first picked it up the cabin over head lights didn't work. I checked all fuses, harnesses, door switches, and wires and found nothing wrong. Within a few months the 12volt cig plug on the dash stopped working. About a...

    91-94 Dash Phone Mount?

    Ever since I released the 95-97 dash bezel/phone mount a couple years ago, I have been getting bugged to make one for the 91-94 dash. There isn't the ideal space like on the later dash so I put off this project until I had a good chunk of time to dedicate to it. I'm finally in my slow season and...

    Man-A-Fre Control arm bushing failure

    So the rubber bushing on my rear MAF control arms are literally falling apart. I have been getting a real bad driveline clunk on acceleration and deceleration and found out the MAF upper and lower bushings outback are junk. The entire axle is rotating back and forth in the bushings. They have...

    Educate me on KDSS and the GX

    I have owned quite a few Toyota SUVs over the years but never a GX470. My buddy came to me this week and asked if I would help him find a GX470. He loved the LX470 I drove and wanted something just like it but a little smaller. The GX seemed like the perfect answer. He wanted 4WD and a V8 with...

    More Cup Holders?

    I have been getting asked for years from the 40 guys to make them cup holders. I just have not had the time to get to this project until now. I have hired a few guys to take over my other duties so I can get back to product development; the one area I actually enjoy. I need some help from you...

    Trail Gear Custom Bumper Design

    I didn't have the free time this time around to build a bumper from scratch. I decided to go with the Trail Gear winch mount as the starting point for my bumper. I love tube bumpers for their strength and low weight so I am going that route again on the new 80. I wasn't a huge fan of their tube...

    Cup Holder Insert needed?

    My neighbor has an FJ Cruiser and asked me if I could make her some new inserts for her cup holders. She has the factory rubber inserts but lost one and melted another in the dishwasher. I went ahead and designed a CAD file of it and printed a couple for her. She talked with some of her FJ...
