    Thanks for documenting this process. I have a Toyota Hiace which has shorter CV axles than the pickup/4Runner so I’m going to try mixing and matching new pickup axles with my short “intermediate shafts” to make it work. Problem is, the outer splines stripped.

    The 2012-2014 FJ cruisers have a different tail light assembly. I have a 2014, and there is an additional "slide-out" looking connector that I cannot see how to disconnect on the old housing. Please address this in the future, as I have not found a RUclips video that explains this part. Thanks!

    Followed your video to the letter. Bought the weakest 24' strut I could find which was 20 pounds. Your door opens slowly. Mine slams if I don't hold onto it. Which strut are you using. I just saw your link and your strut is 40 pounds and opens slowly while mine is 20 pounds and slams. Don't know what to think

    i stumbled upon this while looking around for a good air inflator. How does this pressure regulator work in terms of static and dynamic PSI? When I am filling up my tire with my normal hand held inflator that has a pressure gauge, the gauge always shows much higher than the actual PSI in the tire. Not until I stop the airflow do I see the final/actual tire PSI. How does that work with this regulator?

  • @DanielTejnicky
    @DanielTejnicky Год назад

    So it CAN be taken out without the need to disassemble entire trunk area trimming. Great vid! Why I am here: *I got FJ recently (2007 black TRD) It had aftermarket tail light guards - you know which ones. They are designed terribly. Not only they require 3 holes to be drilled in the driver side D pillar, but also the other side of each guard is just nuged in between the ligh and the very shallow profile that it sits in. THere is a sort of small cushin, but that gets rubbed of with time and the guard latch pops right out. And since it is a steel part, it will just hover right above the paintjob and yes from time to time it will hit it - creating nasty paint chips, that if you dont treat and fix, will start to rot out space just behind the tail lights - so my review is: 2/10 poorly designes use only if you don't care about your FJ. It is better to replace the tail light than have two rot spots, caused by the guard.*
