yep. back when my '99 4r limited was pretty new, I went bombing around in snow like that and was going into and out of plowed snowbanks. mighty fun...then skkkkriiittttchhhh I straddled a low rock wall that got taller and I high centered the rock wall lengthwise.

I was able to...
tpws registration varies between models and trim.
my rav4 le hybrid I could just choose 'change wheels' and it would forget what it knows and just pair to the next closest 4 sensors after a short drive. my 4runner is similar but there are more menu options to poke thru.... not an easy 'change...
that looks bizarre to me. I am in the salt belt and don't wash my vehicles much, and my '99 4runner, 2013 tacoma dipstick tubes still have all the paint all the way down to the pan.
if 2025 4runner corrodes that easily, it is an anomaly
I wonder if brake fluid got splashed on that ?
at any...
My SR5 allows you to reset and have it relearn all 4 (no spare sensor in SR5)
any time you want, no limit. as long as they are OEM sensors and operate
the way OEM do. it can also store 2 sets to avoid needing the relearn procedure
basically go to the menu select “Tire Set Switching”

is your 4runner battery pack lithium or not ?
no
4runner hybrids have NIMH packs. almost zero fire danger if split apart
it is the lithium packs you need to worry about in a collision

aside from that, in any major collision... the pack should be pulled
and inspected, 'cuz that is a...
when you submerge a hot differential in cold muddy water the breather will
suck dirty water into the diff which is why people extend and elevate them
...and if the breather does block water ingress, it will come in thru the axle seals
I have @StickerFab acrylic overlays v2 and zero white light creep, they are 100% perfect

who made those Etsy ones ? stickerfactoryPR ?
you can override the locker and make it engage in 4HI or 2HI...but it is
not recommended. vehicles that can do this from factory usually have
beefier axles, splines, and diffs to handle those forces. 4runner is meant to be 4LO
only and low speed...street speeds and rear locker something might...
sometimes it will clank, it depends on the current amount of
stress and twist on the props
'99 4runner, sometimes silent, sometimes kabang, and everything in-between
'13 tacoma, same
'25 4runner, same
try not to kabang it too much...find how it engages most easily for you and
then try to use...
I've done that stuff dozens of times in trucky ('13 tacoma) and sqweeks ('99 4runner)
not interested in doing it to sqweeks2 ('25) it's not my official woods buggy yet
always have a shovel with me 'cuz eventually it'll float up and lose contact
need to shovel out the underside so wheels can...
the snorkel is absolutely not watertight and in no way shape or form is any 2025/2026 4runner designed from factory to ford deep water.
the OEM snorkel is designed to breathe less dusty air if you are out wheeling in desert dust
and that is all it does. it also makes a lot of noise.
these acrylic inserts v2 are very well designed imho
thick acrylic
black plastic bordering the blank with 4 proud tabs
that snap into the opening in front of the fog. it stands off
the fog light so there is airspace between the insert and the
fog lens...no heat worries
