I love going to the dealership whenever I am too lazy to do something and have to get work done on my truck, the scowl I get from the technician any time i do go in as he explains to me why my 4runner isn't safe to drive... This time it was about my lack of a front differential and "custom" CV axles (see previous posting about custom length cut CV's while prepping for SAS ha

2000 Tundra TRD
Broken rear passenger side fender flare
Drivers sun visor
Ignition lock is going out.
Ac only blows on defrost setting. Try to change setting and stays on defrost.

Anyone parting one out? Was looking to buy the ignition cylinder but dont want 2 keys. Want ignition, fuel door and door locks so I dont have 2 different keys.

Believe it or not those ignitions love a little wd40 every few years. Or graphite based oil Dont use any lithium grease or anything sticky. Try it if your getting rid of the ignition anyways what do you have to lose? Worked for me on a few yotas.

Hahaha. Mine rolls up and down just fine from the driver side... But only down from the passenger side. My passengers often will roll down the window and then once we get up speed say "hey man I can't get this back up!".... I then of course take the opportunity to mess with them and say, "Oh my gosh, what did you do?!?!?" Muahaha!

Mmm hmmm..... I hear ya... I've had plenty of both. but honestly? I love having power windows and mirrors in this truck. Especially when wheeling in really hot spots when I have the air on. But you are right and most people agree with you when they are making expedition style rigs.

My passenger window has decided it only wants to work some of the time, looks like its time to convert to manual crank!
