If you are running real heavy (E load rated) tires 35" plus, a regear would help with performance but hurt top speed. 3rd gen Tacomas all needed a regear just to run 33"s. LOL

This is so true.

They just steer to the right or left and cause quarter-panel damage. Happened on another vehicle of mine, and they even admitted they didn't want to hit the hitch, so they steered into the corner, which caused more damage.

Yes, I always assume when someone doesn't want to file a police report that they don't have insurance.

I'm sorry for your accident, it's such a pain and inconvenience until your vehicle is returned fixed. People don't realize the chain of events they just caused due to their negligence. I live in an area where there are a lot of retired folks. We call them half-backs, because they moved from...

I bought some more adjustable cross bars from Victory 4x4.

Very nice.

The problem with the new 4Runners and Tacomas is that the hitch is welded to the frame. A strong enough rear hit can total your vehicle.

I put a foam knee pad on the spoiler and open it up, and let it rest against my XL Yakima box. While not ideal, it works. Then I throw the knee pad in the back when done.

Note: Before towing, you might want to invest in some airbags so you don't have terrible rear sag affecting handling. They run around $500 if you install yourself. These are the ones I just purchased...

I don't understand people buying a new vehicle and the first thing they do is get out on the highway and cruise at 80mph in 90º heat. All vehicles need to be broken in properly. I do the basic first 1000 miles at moderate speed, not over 65mph, and no jack rabbit starts. I also remotely start...

Take into account that larger tires are also taller. There are a lot of variables.

Let it warm up for 5-10 minutes. I do that every day, and I have never had a shifting issue. Also, it is good for the turbo to let the oil warm up.

I've had mine for a year from Amazon on our 25 Tacoma and our 25 4Runner. No issues at all. You can get them from Lexland.com as well. Here is a discount code, use 828discount .

Thanks, what I like about airbags compared to HD springs is the adjustability. With HD springs, you are usually at a constant rake towards the front, which puts excessive wear on your front brakes and contributes to nose diving. With air bags, you just run about 8 psi in them daily, and more...

Still sits level, but with a heavy weight in the rear, it squats a tiny bit. My remedy for that is Air Bags, which I am installing soon.

Do not go above C-rated load range. E-rated gets too heavy.

Blaze off-road Garmin Power Switch bracket and wires. Great way to clean up the wire mess and control your lights wirelessly.

I assume price.
