I found 2, saw a thread on this forum or the other one but can't locate the all the ones listed there.

I was under the truck last night looking for the zerk fittings on the driveline. While there I noticed what look like rub spots on the underside paint, possibly back to the metal. One or two small patches, maybe 2"X1". Other than paint is the metal treated or coated/dipped with anything?

Cool thanks. Is the TRD sprung the same as an SR5, do they sit the same height with the same clearances? As far as the speedo being off, I have a friend that went hog wild with a 4Runner and he used something like this to correct the speedo reading after he increased wheel size...

So these wheels- http://www.ebay.com/itm/Toyota-4Runner-1984-2017-TRD-Pro-SEMA-17-BLACK-Alloy-Rims-Set-OEM-NEW-/142209544293?hash=item211c597065:g:7OgAAOSwGvhUDymQ&vxp=mtr With these tires in 265/65R17 with a listed OD of 30.55"...

Thank you. I find myself thoroughly uneducated on this and I just looked up more info on driveline bind based on your reply. Makes total sense now. Had a Ford Escape a few years back and with it being AWD I never thought about it. The 4H and 4L selectability in the Taco is a new thing for me.

I wondered the same thing about the hill holder too. So I just got back from the dealer. They have a service lane to pull into and as soon as I pulled in and explained my concern they got the service manager. He came out and asked me my concerns. I told him how it felt like brakes were being...

I noticed resistance when backing out of my driveway this morning in 4x4. It's slightly downhill so it was odd. Haven't experience it when backing out in 4x2. Will have to see if it happens again. No delay noticed when shifting it from reverse into drive in either 4x2 or 4x4. It seems to...

I've been reading the posts about low ATF and unless I missed something I believe they all related to 2016's. My '17 is literally showroom fresh and so far everything seems tight, there is no delay when engaging drive or reverse etc. So I'm wondering if the issues were resolved when enough...

Have a '17 SR5. Can't get my VIN recognized to even create an Entune account, much less see if it works properly when paired to my phone. Bluetooth works fine. The XM trial is giving me maybe 10 stations to choose from, garbage.

Thank you.

Evenin' Picked up a new 2017 SR5 today and will likely find this forum a wealth of good info. Thanks.
