1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Yea, the 99's diff wasn't touched till we replaced in last summer.

 

I fucking hate sunroofs, useless feature. The one on the cruiser is leaking and all associated parts including seals are NLA. So if a bit of well placed silicone doesn't fix it I'll be making a metal panel, painting it, and putting it in place of the sunroof with a rubber seal on it.

 

I really like the one in the 4Runner. Use it all the time if I'm not on the freeway and it's nice outside.

 

I never use them. The last thing I want is extra glare. I always keep the cover shut, I never open the goddamn things cuz I don't want them to leak. Plus they take up headroom for their stupid track system. They're literally designed to leak but at this point it's 27 years old and it's apparently too much for it to handle even with the drains all functioning. my metal replacement panel would just be slightly bigger and use a bigger rubber seal to fit tight. But it would attach to the track system at the same point the old glass did so you can still open it if you want to. Though I literally never want to open one

 

The one in the Rav4 has the stupid drains get clogged like every 4 months. Gotta keep it clean or water gets in from the A-pillar area. Have to do it tomorrow.

 

Looks like parts are available for it?

I was wondering why my neighbor tarps his sunroof instead of fixing it.

 

I don't even know how to check or clean the drains on the 4R yet. Suppose I should look into that.

 

that part number just turns up discontinued everywhere else and it won't let me buy it. I have a feeling the same thing would happen here. This place just wants to charge me $150 shipping to find out

 

Which part?

 

I dont even know how to do it. But this car isnt going back to a shop again before we sell it. Guess its youtube time.

 

They don't sell the seal separately. So I need a whole new glass piece.

63201-60012

 

The glass comes out really easy on these without even taking out the headliner. I could pull it out, un bond the old seal and clean up the surface really well. Then find a new seal that fits appropriately.

 

Fuq. I though you just needed the weatherstrip.

 

I do just need the weather strip, unfortunately they never sold it like that

 

A quick search said to open it and locate the drain tubes in the corners, then shoot compressed air down them. Seems easy enough.

 

Just don't go ham on it because it'll actually blow the tubes off the funnels. Then it'll leak everywhere

 

So it's not part 10 in the diagram? https://oemparts.stonemttoyota.com/...WEATHERSTRIP--SLIDIN/52511878/6325260010.html

 

No that's sort of a vapor barrier from the track system to the roof of the vehicle. That thing super thick and very supple still. Mine is just the seal that goes around the glass it's much smaller than that. I can see where someone's tried to repair it before too

 

Gotcha. That's a bummer. Maybe a sunroof specialty place? Or Safelite or something?
