    Most auto stores have them. Part of a multi-purpose tool.
    However, 2 thin screwdrivers will work, as well.

    my antenna keeps coming unscrewed by itself, if I used blue Loc-Tite do y'all think it would make the radio loose reception?

    I used the tool and haven't broken any clips after removing the door panels twice. Just make sure the tool is positioned as secure around the clip as possible and pop it off :thumbsup:

    I always pull the panel off by hand and never break any clips. No tools needed, just strong fingers.

    Not really, I rub more ever since I got an alignment. I wish I would have straightened to show the rake better now that I look at it.

    Here's a pic to show you how much they were turned. It's hard to tell in that previous pic.

    Roger Brown (4Crawler) is a great vendor. His site is pretty outdated but his products are excellent for what they are.

    Thank you, I went out to a Salvage-yard this morning & got the rack off this 1994, 4Runner, $75.... It is Complete & in pretty good shape, it only needs paint in few spots. I want to see if i can locate the inserts for the stock bolts that came off with it.........Glad you posted up, motivated me to go out & get one!
    Thanks!
