    O7 4runner Q's

    A friend just aquired a 07 4runner 4wd, no lockers or diff lock, but it does have down hill assent control, and what I believe is stability control. While he was researching for some improved suspension, he was told by an installer here in Tucson that you can have problems with certain lifts and...

    Cooper ST's?

    While researching a better wearing tire for my rig, AKA an All terrian, I came across............not a whole lot. I did get a chance to see a Cooper Discovery ST in 255/85/R16lt though, which peaked my interest. Seems to have a more aggressive tread than most AT's in this size, which is what I'm...

    Steel winch cable pm?

    Was wondering what the best thing to use to protect against corrosion is for steel winch cable? I was thinking a dry silicone lube so as not to attract too much dust. Any ideas?

    Brake light???

    Was wondering if any of you guys with 01-04 Tacomas have ever had the dash brake light come on and off, especially in cold or wet weather? I have been noticing it doing it since coming back from the Expo. At first I thought it was the e. brake handle sensor, but that seems fine, as well as all...

    Ipod nano mounting options

    Thought some of you experts might have a few solutions to help me with. I am trying to find a suitable mounting platform for my wife's Ipod Nano w/ wireless car adapter. She has a Nissan Altima 3.5, and does not like the cupholder styles or window mounts. Some of the styles I have looked at seem...

    clocking winch release handle

    I'm sure some of you out there have had to reclock the release handle on your winches. I am assuming all I need to do is lossen the bolts and turn the handle housing and retighten the bolts. Am I missing anything? I shouldn't have to pull it apart should I?

    New Toys!

    Well, a couple of goodies showed up from the brown truck the other day, so I thought I would play show and tell.:jumping: Allpro front winch bumper and a Warn M8000 to stick in it! Now if I could just get the comms and nav together, I might be good to go.

    Upgrade alternator?

    I'm not sure if this has been addressed, but I was wondering what amp alt. is required to run a winch, air compressor and a few lights. I know the stock alt. in my truck is an 80 amp. Do any of you think this is enough or would it be better for the electrical sys. to upgrade and how much...

    Parking brake on Tacomas

    After this weekend, I started to notice that my parking brake was not biting very well, no matter how hard I set it. Granted, some of the hills I had to stop on were pretty steep, but quite a few were not, and the truck still wanted to creep rearward. Have any of you with 2004 or older trucks...

    AllPro bumper

    Well I finally settled on a rear bumper, a wrap around from AllPro. Got it put on last weekend, and everything went on real smooth, fitting evenly everywhere. I now have three rear recovery points, three more than the factory offered me. I had it coated with the same material as the sliders. I...

    New sliders!

    I finally got a couple of pics of the new sliders. They are 2x6x3/16" steel with a rhino like coating, heavy on top, thin on the bottom. Haven't got to play with them yet, but I am sure they will hold up well.

    TJM -vs- ARB

    I was curious what the real differences between the two types are? Is the ARB constructed better or does the inflated price come from popularity?? The reason I ask is that I like the TJM due to the lack of front grill guard. Thanks for any input. :)
