Expert Answers about Toyota 4Runner


  • How Much Does the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution System Weigh
  • The overall weight of the Blue Ox SwayPro Weight Distribution w/ Sway Control part # BXW1000 is around 88 lbs. in the box. When using the system about 20 lbs. of that will be hanging on the trailer with the rotating lift brackets and another 15 will be in the arms you place in during setup. So all told you will be lifting about 53 lbs. into the receiver hitch when you use it. I've linked a video for you to check out on the system and it's setup to check out.

  • Adjustable Heights of Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender
  • That depends on the height of your 2019 Toyota 4Runner's back window (we don't have those dimensions, unfortunately); it is likely to work as an extension for your roof for sure, but your back window may not be high enough to use the Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender for 2" Hitches # MPG907. You will need to take some measurements and compare that to the adjustable heights of the Axis Extender, which is adjustable from 55-1/2 inches to 62-1/2 inches. I have added some links...

  • I went to our warehouse and took some measurements of the Trailer Valet 5X, part # STC-V211 for you. I have attached a photo of the # STC-V211 with the dimensions noted.

  • The Westin Sportsman Grille Guard # 40-3825 is an excellent choice for your 2017 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road.

  • Weight Capacity of Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System for 2015 Toyota 4Runner

This system is rated for 175 lbs but if you can let me know what video you are looking at I can explain why we would have varying weight ratings.

  • Difference Between Measurements on 3,500 lb Double Eye Leaf Spring
  • The axle should mount over the center of the 27" 4-Leaf Double-Eye Spring for 3,500-lb Trailer Axles # SP-210275. The measurements you see in the accompanying diagram are different because "A" is measured in a straight line from the center of the spring eye to the center of the spring while "B" is the measurement of the curve from the spring eye to the center of the spring, like if you laid a tape measure down on the spring itself, if that makes sense. I have added a link to a video review...

  • Can the Skid Plate Be Reinstalled w/ the Curt Front Hitch on a 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro?
  • Not without some modification but it can be done. I have linked a picture below that a customer sent in. It shows the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch item # C31076 installed on a 2022 Toyota 4Runner TRD Pro. The customer stated the following: To keep the OEM skid plate, you can remove the skid plate’s 2x front spacers and spacer washer locks. Removing this will allow you to fasten the front 2x M10 oem bolts. The 2x rear M10 bolts will need to be replaced with 2x smaller length M10 bolts...

  • Recommended Thule Cargo Box for a 2019 Toyota 4Runner TRD PRO w/ a Toyota Basket Rack
  • Almost all of them but I would go with the big one! I checked with Thule and the Thule Force XT XXL Rooftop Cargo Box item # TH6359B is confirmed to work with the Toyota factory rack. You will want to adjust two of the crossbars so they are between 23-5/8" - 35-1/2" apart.

  • Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket Height
  • The best way to find out what kind of clearance is needed is to measure. From the research I did, your 2017 Toyota 4Runner is about 72" tall with factory tires. The Rhino-Rack Roof Mounted Steel Cargo Basket # RMCB you referenced is 5 1/2" overall in height. So that should put your 4Runner about 77-78" which is right under the 81" opening. But I still recommend that you measure your 4Runner and garage. Rhino Rack has a net and strap kit made for this basket # RLN1-RTD4 to keep all your...

  • Weight Capacity of J-Style Cradles on Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer
  • The weight capacity of the J-style cradles on the Malone EcoLight Sport Trailer with J-Style Carriers for 2 Kayaks - 400 lbs # MAL93FR is 75 lbs. If your kayaks will exceed the capacity of the cradles then you would need to add the Bunk Kit for Malone Trailers - 1 Kayak # MPG561. The bunk kit has a 500 lb capacity so it would be able to handle any kayak you have as long as you aren't exceeding the capacity of the trailer. You could also use the Malone MicroSport Trailer for 2 Heavy Kayaks...

  • What is the Weight Rating for the Westin Sure-Grip Running Boards # 27-6620-2165?
  • I went ahead and contacted my tech at Westin to confirm the weight rating of the Westin Sure-Grip Running Boards # 27-6620-2165, and he said that Westin stopped providing a weight capacity rating because each set of running boards installs in different locations of vehicle. However, he did say that the weight capacity rating of the Sure-Grip boards on some prior models was 300 pounds maximum. However, if you are looking for something firmer, I recommend the Aries ActionTrac Motorized Running...

  • Which Tires Are The Right Size For 1970 Single Axle Airstream Trailer
  • You will want to check your Airstream axle out and make sure it has the weight capacity of 4,000 lbs as you mentioned. The capacity should be on a plate or sticker on the axle, or you could use the VIN and call the manufacturer for that information. If you find that the axle has a higher weight capacity than the 3640 lbs your tires provide, you may wish to replace the tires with a load range D tire like the Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire, part # AM10245. This tire has a maximum...

  • Could Malone AirFlow 2 Roof Rack Carry Roof Top Tent
  • You'll need to check with the manufacturer of the tent to find out what is the minimum weight capacity for their tent from the roof rack. They should have a number listed for the dynamic capacity required for the rack which would translate into a higher static (parked not moving) capacity. The dynamic weight capacity of the Malone # MPG215 is 165 lbs which is definitely on the higher end so I would be surprised if this wouldn't work.
