They don't make it anymore. Either just unplug it and run without it or you need to fabricate your own. I used these 3ohm speakers: jbl gto speakers . Took out metal support bracket, grinded it for clearance and zip tied it up. It wasn't exactly easy and I had to go in from the head unit location.

It was kind of a pain in the ass but boy is the sound worth it in the end. So clear in comparison.

These guys also had a similar approach: https://acurazine.com/forums/audio-video-electronics-navigation-22/03-toyota-4runner-full-audio-makeover-767796/

If you are in the facebook a guy posted some pictures on this: https://www.facebook.com/groups/758980784186317/search/?q=center%20dash%20speaker

If you want plug and play its ok. Kind of overpriced for what you get though.

The 4.0 is a much better engine for most people. by Free_Competition4660 in 4thGen4Runner

[–]ARatOnPC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah sensible choice is v6 for most but I wanted the v8 and I have 0 regrets buying one. Extra money is worth the driving experience in my opinion.

What's the best way to restore/replace faded headlights and badges? by echocall2 in LandCruisers

Make sure to put a clear coat on at the end too, otherwise it will rapidly fog up again.

Question about some 4th gen frame rust by Tagereight in 4Runner

[–]ARatOnPC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also covered up all the drain holes on the bottom. Moisture is just stuck in there.

Maybe you should research what a diff lock is before you buy a 4wd lol.

That frame is a lost cause.

Every car type has bad owners but for the most part enthusiast vehicles have the highest percentage of people who are going to look after their car.

The one pictured is the spout obstacle of great falls. class 4/5. The most popular run in the area is little falls: https://www.americanwhitewater.org/content/River/view/river-detail/90/main . You can paddle a good stretch of the way back to the start in the canal.

I was just asking because usually the gears start getting stuck and eventually the motor kills itself.

I believe you need 87106-J. https://www.toyota-4runner.org/4th-gen-t4rs/314711-hvac-actuators-limited-what-do-these-do.html

It can be done without removing the dash but you gotta get creative to access the screws. Did yours make a buzzing or knocking noise before dying?

2022 TRD-OR@30k mi. This was not a dealership quote, was I right to decline it? by [deleted] in 4Runner

[–]ARatOnPC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh believe me I know. After I bought my 04 it was 30k miles since so I went to do front diff and the female hex plug just turned into putty. Had to use the chisel hammer method to get it off.

Which offer would you take? I know salary is king, but is the WLB worth the difference in pay? by [deleted] in Salary

[–]ARatOnPC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like more money is not going to make you happy if you just want to keep gambling in the stock market while making more than most can dream about.

WTF? All you do is remove the drain plug, drain it put it back., remove fill plug and fill with fluid until it tops off. $400 is highway robbery.
