Toyota 4 Runner...Spare Tire Removal / Installation

[@fjbT2024]

My 4runner is 11 years old and thankfully never needed to remove the spare. But now i know exactly how to do it. Thank you for your simplistic explanation

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Great to hear!

[@wallisphoto]

Thanks this sort of video is what makes UA-cam great

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Thanks

[@accord50]

Glad I saw your video ! I've never had a flat but glad to see how easy it is to remove. Hopefully I will never have to use my spare. But I am glad my insurance policy covers roadside assistance.

[@thomassawyer6523]

TY for posting this. Having to read the manual to figure this out while on the side of the road is a pain.

[@silvervuong4135]

Thanks so much for your video. I was struggling to crawl inside find the hose to put air. I end giving up to do that until I found this video. Mostly, old 4runner removal spare tire video I watched it does not have same access/ tools.

I have a 2007 4-Runner and assume the process is similar. Thanks for the post.

[@jackk8093]

I’m on my second 4Runner and lucky to have not had to do this, but if I do now I won’t be standing on the side of the road looking for the tools or the hole to put the tool in. :)

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Glad it was helpful...cheers

[@jbee1011]

I had a 91 that I had to change the tire on. Fortunately the tire was mounted upright inside the back. Much easier.

[@dadgarage7966]

I rotate all five tires annually so I bought a second tool assembly I keep in the garage. Or if you're handy, you could make a second one.

[@noengoma7270]

Thank you for a demonstration

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Glad it helped out...cheers

[@terrencepierce-pg2pv]

[@stevenw2866]

[@patlynch8468]

Question Does it make a difference if your Val stem side is facing up or down 🤔

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Hello...good question...I don't believe it matters...thanks for viewing...cheers

[@patlynch8468]

Thank you for answering my question I have noticed with the Val stem pointing down it’s easier to check the air pressure an keep my spare tire ready to use Good Videos

[@tudo.passa.]

Is the spare tire the same size as the other 4?
Great video btw.

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Hello...my apologies for this late reply...yes it's the same size as the other 4..265 70 17 but on steel rim...cheers!

[@mikecoughlin4128]

I try to get them to rotate all 5 tires and it usually causes a stir. Last time I got about a block away when the tire fell off!! There I was in the middle of the street wrestling a tire into the hatch. I drove straight back to the shop. Of course they blame “the new guy” which, until I explained it to them, they didn’t seem to realize made no difference to me WHO did it.

[@kangvbn]

I don't have a 4runner, what's it like?
I didn't know that's how you lower a tire
How much is gas?
Thanks pops

[@kenrhino7904]

Thank you! I never would have thought to turn it clockwise to remove. I would have struggled with it and all the while tightening it.

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

[@anjankarki4439]

Great video.

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Thanks for the visit

[@larryharry7221]

This information is in the owner's manual.

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

Yes...a visual demonstration is also very helpful...cheers

[@dadgarage7966]

That's a good video idea -- how to read a 4Runner owner's manual.

[@raesmart3305]

Don’t forget it’s either rusty from never removing or full of mud. 😅

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

👍

[@igloo211]

I’ve been considering removing mine all together to reduce a little weight. I think I’m willing to take the risk without it

[@Wild1995]

I would have never known any of this

[@toddcarpenter714]

And this is why I have AAA insurance.

[@sandynw185]

Wow, your neighbour has quite the rust bucket! Yikes

[@4am4life-cc3oh]

@@sandynw185 yes and loud as well!! :)
