    Did a thing a little while ago, thought I wanted to clean the engine bay to take pics but decided that was too much effort and it doesn't matter. Thanks again @Digiratus, they shall be used a lot as I find myself under the hood more than most. When you get a chance give your rear canopy struts a compressed and extended measure so I can figure out if the ones I have will work for you.

    Pics...

    Feels more modern for sure, I just like that I no longer have the prop rod hanging up my winch control cable or my OBA air hose when in use.

    What does heavy duty mean, I have a 20 foot enclosed trailer I pull and never had any issues with heat
    "Heavy duty" means the clutch fan connects sooner? Stays connected longer??
    Is that for the v6?

    From TTORA:
    "The towing package on '01-'04 consisted of Toyota installing the correct fan clutch. Up to 2000 they installed one fan clutch in all Taco's & 4Runners which was green in color. Starting in '01 you had to pay extra to get the green fan clutch to have your truck rated to tow 5,000lbs. Otherwise, your truck would be equipped with an orange fan clutch and the weight limit was 3,500lbs."

    That don't look right... o_O

    What I've seen is 1 of the 4 will back out completely, putting all the stress on the other 3. As long as the remaining 3 are tight, you can drive it that way in gentile conditions, meaning pavement only. Eventually the other 3 will begin to loosen, once you lose another one, then the remaining ones will shear from the turning stresses.
