Expert Answers about Toyota 4Runner


  • Compatible Roof Rack Feet for 2021 Toyota 4Runner TRD
  • The Thule Wingbar Evo Crossbars # TH711420 (Black) or # TH711400 (Silver) are good aerodynamically shaped crossbars designed to cut down on wind drag and noise. I'd like to mention though that the modern aero bars like these are larger than older designs. As you buy accessories in the future, try to get ones that clamp down to the T-tracks so you can maximize your bar space and won't have to worry about if the clamps fit around WingBars. The correct feet for these bars on your 2021 Toyota...

  • Recommended Brake Controller for 2007 Toyota 4Runner with Weight Distribution System Sway Control
  • For your 2007 Toyota 4Runner, the Prodigy P3 # 90195 is what I recommend for your brake controller. If you have the factory 7-way, then you will simply use wiring harness # 3040-P and you'll be ready to go. If you don't have the factory 7-way then you will need to hardwire the controller using # 5506 if you have a 7-way or # ETBC7 if you need to add a 7-way. I've attached a couple videos to assist.

  • Parts Needed To Install Redarc Tow Pro Elite In 2018 Toyota 4Runner
  • I would be happy to recommend a mounting panel and wiring harness to get the Redarc Tow Pro Elite # RED44FR installed in your 2018 Toyota 4Runner. Starting with the wiring harness you will need the Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # RED49FR which is confirmed to fit the factory trailer brake controller port on your 2018 4Runner. This port is above the emergency brake pedal. Moving on to the mounting panel, we have had customers mention that the Mounting Panel for Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake...

  • Recommended Weigh Distribution for a 2015 Toyota 4Runner Towing a 2018 Winnebago Micro Minnie
  • I appreciate all the information you have given. That makes things much easier to make a recommendation for you. The dry weights will increase as you add cargo to your trailer. So as you add the camping supplies, your clothes, etc, the weight of the trailer and the trailer tongue weight will increase. Using a weight distribution system will help as you are able to disperse the weight for a more stable ride. When looking for the best weight distribution system for your trailer and...

  • Cargo Box for 2023 Toyota 4Runner with OEM Crossbars that Would Cover Least of Moonroof
  • The OEM crossbars of your 2023 Toyota 4Runner sit too close to the top of the vehicle roof for any of our cargo boxes to fit so what you'd need to use a cargo box is a set of aftermarket crossbars like the Thule Wingbar Evo roof rack part numbers # TH711420 and # TH710401 and you'd be able to use a box like the Thule Force XT Sport Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6356B that you referenced. This is a smaller box that would cover the least amount of your moon roof.

  • Recommended Anti Rattle Device for a 2 Inch Hitch
  • The Softride # SR25219 will be a good option for getting rid of the movement you are getting in your ball mount while towing. One of the big pluses with the # SR25219 is that it will lock in place to keep anyone from walking away with it. That being said, it does have one drawback. This style of anti rattle device has to be used in a ball mount that has a hollow shank. If your shank is solid, however, I do have another option available. The Roadmaster Quiet Hitch # RM-061 will work on...

  • Availability of Trailer Winch that Can Have Handle Install on Both Sides
  • The winch you mentioned part # 348776 can't have the handle mounted on both sides of it nor can it mount 180 degrees. For a winch that you can move the handle to the left side you can use # FW16000101. This winch is specifically designed to allow the handle to be installed on either side easily so it would work the best for you.

  • Due to the location of the sensors on the front of your 2021 Toyota 4Runner SR5 all of the grille guards that fit your 2021 Toyota 4Runner including the Westin part # 40-3825 would interfere with them.

  • Weight Distribution Hitch Recommendation for Trailer with 300 lb Tongue Weight
  • A weight distribution system with a tongue weight range of 800-1,200 lbs (I am assuming that's what you meant) is going to be very harsh on a trailer that only has 300 lbs of tongue weight. You will need a much lighter rated system. Ideally you get a system where your tongue weight falls right into the middle of the systems tongue weight range and you'll get the best overall towing experience. The Reese weight distribution system part # RP65509 would be a great option as it has a tongue...

  • Thule Aeroblade Edge Roof Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Toyota 4Runner
  • If you wanted a Thule Aerblade Roof Rack for your 2014 4Runner that has zero overhang you would want the Edge # TH7503-TH7503 as it will install in between your side rails. I believe this would be your best option, I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

  • Will Rhino Rack Ski/Snowboard Carrier RR576 Fit OEM Bars 1998 Toyota 4Runner
  • Yes the Rhino Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR576 that you referenced would fit the factory crossbars of your 1998 Toyota 4Runner. If your 4Runner didn't have crossbars you'd need a set which we offer with the Inno rack part numbers # INB127, # INSUT, and # INK143.

  • Recommended Towing Mirrors for 2019 Toyota 4 Runner
  • The CIPA Custom Towing Mirror, # CM11401 that you linked to is for the drivers side. The passengers side is # CM11402 and these are not for a 2019 Toyota 4Runner. However, I think the K-Source Universal Towing Mirrors # KS3891-2 will be a great fit. Please note the linked video below of these on a 2019 Toyota Highlander.

  • Recommendation to Transport 185 cm Skis on 2016 Toyota 4Runner with Factory Roof Rack
  • The only roof cargo box we have available that is confirmed to fit the factory crossbars on your 2016 Toyota 4Runner is the Thule Sidekick Roof Mounted Cargo Box # TH78GC. This is likely due to the extremely low profile design for the factory crossbars on this vehicle, as only cargo boxes that use a U-bolt attachment system will fit. This particular cargo box features 8 cubic feet of space and will not be large enough to store your skis. To transport your skis using the factory roof rack...

  • Adding a 5-Way Trailer Connector to a 1999 Toyota 4Runner
  • I am not sure why the 4-Way on your 1999 Toyota 4Runner does not have the brake light circuit already. Normally on a 4-Way flat trailer connector, the brake light signal is combined with the turn signals for each side. If your wiring harness does not have this set up then you do not want to splice in a wire from the brake light circuit because that would cause both trailer lights to blink with either turn signal on. I have the perfect solution for you. You can install a 5-Way flat converter,...

  • Reducing Wobbling on a Thule Excursion Roof Top Box
  • There are a few things that you can do to ensure a fit, and approach the wobble of your existing box without making a purchase. First, you'll want to make sure that your crossbar kit is spread out as far as the mounting system or crossbars will allow. This will give the roof box a better platform to rest on while driving, and reduce its wobble. Next, when you load the roof box, you'll want to make sure that less of the weight is put into the front of the box, and put more into the middle...

  • Good, Better, and Best Remote Mount Transmission Cooler for a 2000 Toyota 4Runner
  • What you are referring to is a remote mounted transmission cooler which can be mounted anywhere on the vehicle space permits as the electric fan included with the cooler will ensure you receive maximum cooler power no matter the vehicle's state of motion. The best remote mounted transmission cooler I have for you is the Derale Hyper-Cool Extreme Remote Cooler Assembly part # D13870 which measures 13" wide x 14-7/8" tall x 5-5/8" deep. The fan included with this kit has a 800 CFM rating. A...

  • Weight Distribution Hitch for 5000-lb Travel Trailer Towed by 2017 Toyota 4Runner
  • For a 5000-lb travel trailer with tongue weight (TW) of 450-lbs you can use a weight distribution/sway control system such as the Equal-i-zer 4-Point Weight Distribution System # EQ37060ET which works effectively over a range of trailer TW from 200- to 600-lbs. This will both prevent trailer sway from starting and shift some of the trailer TW forward back onto the vehicle's front axle. This will restore steering and braking performance and reduce rear-end squat. Keep in mind that any cargo...

  • The Flex-a-lite Direct Fit Black Magic S-Blade Electric Fan with Shroud # FLX674 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 1995 Toyota 4Runner 3.0 V6 and since it can move 3,000 CFM it would easily keep the coolant nice and cool.
