Tick-Tock Tune-Up: Fixing Your 3rd Gen 4Runner Clock
Find out how to fix the clock in your 3rd gen 4runner. I'll show you how to separate it from the bezel, open it up, and two different methods to fix it! Both methods are easy, but one does require a special tool - a soldering iron. I'll talk a little about electronics so you don't fry anything and the rest is easy. Then we can test it before we reinstall everything.

มุมมอง 4K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Today we are upgrading our 3rd gen Toyota 4runner dash, I’m looking for something OEM . I am changing my burned out gauge cluster bulbs for some red leds. Then I will replace my broken oak limited bezel trim with a new black unit and while I’m in there; I will replace the bulbs in the control module and Climate control unit. I'll also replace the old radio with a new JVC head unit and showing h...
The Ultimate Budget 3rd gen 4Runner Lift?
มุมมอง 14K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Fixing some saggy rear springs and blown shocks. I replace my 25 year old stock suspension with front springs from a 2001-2005 Tundra TRD and bilstein 5100 shocks for the same truck. Then in the rear I use the 2001 tundra bilstein 5100's with a pair of Old Man Emu (OME) 890's I expect this lift to provide 1-2 inches.. but we'll see what we get at the end. Parts used in this video are: Front Lef...

how i flipped my 400lb aluminum boat.
มุมมอง 4.2K14 ปีที่แล้ว
This is how i flipped my alluminum boat in my back yard. I tied one end to a tree and the other with a cable over a pole to lift down to a ratchet strap tied around a stump. the pole had a 45 cut on the bottom to stick in the ground and braces not to fall. then used a ratchet strap for something its not designed and after a few failed attempts made it work. It coulda went bad but fortunately it...

1960 75hp evinrude on the way out of no wake zone at stanley draper. sorry for the skipping around just wanted to show it running
Love it, Compressing the shocks between your legs! Anyhow, this is a very good video!
OMG, You are jacking it wrong
Just did this yesterday. Did you end up with a washer at the top of the front strut jingling after install? I can’t get the top nut tightened down enough to stop. It’s like the nut has bottomed out on the threads and there is a gap where the washer just jingles with every vibration. And those replacement bushings cracked as I had to hammer them on 😂 You made it look so easy!
Everything was tight when I torqued it down. Are you missing a bushing or did they send you the wrong strut?
Can I buy that bezel?
Is there any way to make the colon on the clock to stop blinking?
Looks good dude ! I have a 1999 Toyota SR5 4runner 4x4 I do a lot of driving out in the country dirt roads and thinking about what you just did to yours.
Great video! Thanks!
Do you have the part number for those end links?
Just use STOCK Tundra parts. They are EXACTLY the same as 4runner except 2 1/2 inches longer. Instant 2 1/2 inch lift you can buy at any auto parts store for MUCH less.
Silly question but what gen/year of tundra would they come from? Any extra add ons to make it fit onto the 4runner?
@@gabrielpalacios624my Guess would be 1st gen because 3rd gen 4Runners share a lot of parts with 1st gen tundras
What year and are they an exact fit
@@jacobjacinto8064 the first gens are 2000-2006 I believe. I’m planning on doing a tundra break swap pretty soon. But I’m not sure if everything are direct swap. I would assume so because the entire knuckle in the front is the same. I just bought Bilstein 5100s and Old man emu 883s and 891s for a 2.5” lift. It’s a bit more expensive but from my research it’s worth paying more for nicer shocks and springs
What about land cruiser parts, same?
6:38 Thank you for the hint, I spent all day trying to get the clip out, I thought it was a screw and try to get behind it, and then I watched your video I found the only function for the clip is for one person to install the mechanism, I have a diamond cutter that looks like a pipe, with the diamond around the tip of it, I just cut fingers off and railing was released. Nobody talks about it, they say it is hard to remove but it took 15 seconds to get rid of it.
Dude! What an awesome tutorial. Absolute quality!! Thank you. A tip I just taught myself while doing this, thanks to you and others, on the notch cut of the T3 x 8mm neowedge LED. Another option to notch cutting the socket of the new LED, reuse the old one. The fit is premium. Untwist the legs of the old incandescent bulb and remove from OEM socket. Then untwist the legs of the SMD and remove it from its aftermarket shit socket. Feed them back into the OEM socket, twist the legs back to their original arraingment and Voila. Perfect fitting LED's. Side note one of the OEM sockets is longer than the other and it will need to be trimmed to fit the short legs of the SMD's.
Hi where can I get the rear bushing from ?
just google the part number - Energy Suspension 9.8140G - I think i got mine on amazon for about 8 bucks.
Dude your jack stand orientation on the drivers side just gave me an anxiety attack.
Thanks for the video! If the motor is already reinstalled without recalibrating, does it need to be removed? Is there any way to calibrate with everything installed?
If you didn't make the motor turn with it not installed, it should still be fine. Otherwise you will need to drop the motor far enough out of the frame for it to run without engaging the cables.
awesome...how much do you charge?...lol
I haven't ever thought about it before. But if you're in the OK area we could work something out :)
I changed to led and it lasted less then 3 months and started blinking the original bubls are better.
Well.. hope mine work out better! 🙏
La Toyota 4RUNNER es muy bonita, yo usaría mejor el tamaño de fabrica de la camioneta, esa es mi opinión porque muy alto , no se , no se mira original, yo tengo una Toyota 4RUNNER i yo no la levantaría jamas
The swaybar is the support the body from rolling left to right. The panhard bar is what should be parallel to the vehicle but angles as you as lift, which should be corrected
Thanks so much Stuart! This video was super easy to follow - you have a talent with this!!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks!
i’m ava ray a big fan
Does toyota part # 63221-35010 Casing, Sliding Roof Cable Guide come with the cables and stainless steel tubing? my whole worn drive is seized up and I need a whole new unit.
That part number is just the copper looking pipes. Mine was all seized in the pipes as well. Thats why I had to cut the cables out.
Well done video, Stuart!
Thanks!
Nice video. I want to run a test to confirm if my switch is bad or not, but the connectors are not separating. I feel like I’m gonna break something. Any suggestions?
If you are squeezing the little catch in the middle of the connector all the way it should come out pretty easy, but if its stuck you can use a small flatblade screw driver and gently use a twisting motion between the two halves of the connector working back and forth on both sides of the catch.
This is so helpful! Best 3rd gen 4runner sunroof video to date. Thank you!!!
Wow, thanks! I appreciate that!
Did you buy a new bracket for the new stereo or were you able to use the factory radios bracket?
I used whatever brackets were on the old radio. I'm not positive they were factory, but they look pretty close according to the pictures I can find. There were enough holes that I was able to get all the screws in and make it secure.
Thank you for doing this, Loved it. I would also love if you keep sharing any future upgrade on your 4runner intrerior (mods, accesories, replacements, etc)
Glad you liked it! I have more planned for the future!
I have a very similar setup, been running it for years now. I have 5100's all around with FJ Cruiser coils in the front and Dobinsons C59-137V coils in the rear.
I saw the dobinson's as I was shopping but didn't see much about them online. How's the ride feel?
Wow this was so good. Im gonna have to do this!
Thanks! Good luck with the roof!
Subscribed! Please get more videos about 3rd gen, got mine 6 months ago and on the way to learn DIY 😇
Appreciate the Sub! more on the way.
3rd gen=best gen
Great video
Thanks!
Im having nightmares thinking about this
It's really pretty easy. I guess the only problem is you are kinda committed once you start.
I’m doing a similar lift but going with 6112s in front with 3 inch toy tec rear springs and long travel 5100s in rear. As far as I know, no one has ever done this lift. Wish me luck.
Good Luck! let us know how it goes.
Just to let you know i wouldnt put your jackstands like that. Because they will slide off the frame. Turn them so the frame fits in the notch in the stand.
You're absolutely right! Good catch! I had to go back and check in the video. I did the other 3 the right way and zoomed in and filmed doing it the wrong way.
@@stusch1027 yeah man. You can put them like that but only under the rear control arms on the frame.
Hello, I am a subscriber from Korea. Recently, I'm really into 4Runner, so I am considering importing one because we don't have it in Korea. My biggest concern is how to find a good car remotely. Could you recommend a good way to find a car remotely?
Would you also recommend a budget for the 4Runner 3rd gen? Actually, I don't really care about the interior or exterior; I just need a car that operates well technically.
I really don't have any experience with importing. If you're looking over here online and find something you like, you could look for a local company (same city and state) that does pre-purchase inspections and they should be able to verify the car is good. Also have them check out the frame to make sure its not rusting out. I would look for a ad that has a many pictures as possible. as for budget, 6-10k USD would get you a good running 4runner, obviously the nicer the interior/ exterior the more it'll cost. When you start talking about actually doing the import, I would guess you need a company local to you that understands the process.
@@coffeecola433 우연히 보고 답글 드립니다, 저는 캘리포니아에 살고 있고요, 제 동생이 LA 에서 한국으로 자동차 부품,새차, 중고차등을 수출하고 있습니다,도움이 필요하시면 연락주세요, 3rd gen 4runner 어떤 사양으로 원하시는지요, 미국에서는 6기통 개솔린 엔진이 메인이고 간혹 8기통도 있습니다,
It’s probably easier to get a Hilux surf from Japan than the 4Runner which is the same thing except the Hilux comes in diesel as well as the v6.
@Hollowpointz956 Thank you, that is a good idea as well! I have thought about that. But the only concern is that Korea is the right side handle, and Japan is the opposite. I used to drive a car that came from Japan, and there was some inconvenience.
Appreciate the detailed break down of this entire process - looking forward to more 3rd gen content!
I have same car Good car and good job
Thank you so much ..i fix it as you its working nice
Subbed for more 4runner content, thank you.
More to come! thanks for the sub!
when press the open button, I hear a clicking sound from the motor, but it doesn't open. The clicking sound is there everytime I press it. Do you think I have a motor issue? or your issue with the cable? how would one diagnose?
That's what mine did too. Before I removed the sunroof I pulled the motor off the frame and it operated in both directions. That's why I had to go through aligning the motor to the sunroof at the end. You might be able to take out the bolts you can see and drop the motor down enough to get it out of the cables and operate it.
I have this same issue. I gotta try this! Thanks!
Dude nice elgin 150! I have a 1963, same boat, I'm looking to put the same year a 1960 starflite 75 to replace a crap 72 Chrysler 70 hp. Do you like that motor and what's you top end speed with it!?
What kind of out board?
It's ALIVE!!!! GOOD JOB!
I have a boat like this one.It is a 1961 Texas Maid.It is an excellent boat and can go into very shallow water like the Laguna Madre on the lower Texas coast.Mine has a good paint job on the hull but the topside needs a new coat.I have owned it for over 20 years and the original owner was an old fishing buddy,he left it to me after his death.I hope you appreciate what you have there.
Want a hood for that? I have an extra.
