Anyone have an idea of the most common fail part. Unfortunately it is locked in the Daughter's favorite position (steering wheel in the gut, and one's nose inches away from the windshield).
The right side worm gear is working, left is not. 3rd gen Runner..

Common fail part on the 80 is stripped plastic gear. Hopefully this video can help getting your seat to your favorite position.

This is the perfect seat positioning IMO!

I don't know, which is why I stated "80" and "hopefully".

Just trying to help. I apologize if it is confusing.

Thx , more of a curious question. I just didn't know if they were the same off the top of my head.

The reason I asked if you knew was that I have an extra white threaded cap that I could send him if his was missing from the end of his assy if that turned out to be his problem. Theyre hard to come by.

Good idea of course Jackson!

That sure sounds like it. I'll need to do some research to see if the 80 and T4R gears are interchangeable.
