  Q: How to remove and install the Spoiler on Toyota Sequoia?

  A: The liftgate is quite bulky and somewhat difficult to maneuver therefore it should ideally be managed by two people if it is to be removed or installed. Start by removing the negative terminal of the battery by unclamping it. Open the lift gate, making sure it is well supported then unbolt the lift gate struts or power door rod by pulling on the clip with the screw driver. What is important here is that the wire harness between the liftgate and the body be disconnected, with the relationship between the hinges and the liftgate qualified before removing the bolts. To install the studs, reverse the previous process and make sure that the liftgate is aligned as needed. To adjust the liftgate for proper closure, there are four available adjustments: to advance, retreat or alter its position vertically, the nuts and bolts holding the hinges to the body should be loosened, then with a small effort the hinges should be shifted in the intended direction and the nuts tightened firmly. As for left or right adjustment, you need to remove the hinge bolts of the liftgate then shift it in the required direction and fasten the bolts of the hinge again. For the liftgate striker, you should free it by unscrewing the striker screws, followed by hammering on the striker until you hear a click implying that it has established the correct lock with the striker, and then screwing the striker screws back. Liftgate-to-body gap can be set free by the removal of the mounting bolts from the stoppers and sliding into the proper position of the needed gap. For the liftgate spoiler, take out the trims that surround the window, use the trim tool to pry out the two hole covers, and the rear spoiler bolts have to be removed. Pop the spoiler outwards from the outside of the liftgate to release the clips and pins that hold it to release it and for installation just reverse the process.
