Some photos from my brother in CA.

@turbo8 See the attached pdf with all part numbers and another pdf with all torque specs. For the TRE sleeves, I think you will need to swap out TREs as well.

Can you post the part number for the tie rod brace?

Finished installing 3” TRD lift kit. Used all components supplied in kit with exception of rear springs and rear Panhard bar. I opted to use icon 80 series rear springs instead of TRD spacer. In front I set clip to upper slot due to hybrid model...

Yeah, all stock.

FYI SDM automatically locks when speeds go above 18mph, at least in the Tacoma.

Hey Mud – I have been meaning to get on here and get some documentation on how my Sequoia build is going but ya’ll know how life goes. Hoping this thread can be inspirational to folks who are looking to push their big bodied rigs a little further...

If the 3rd gen Tundra Pro got a 408 with 145.7" wheelbase, can we assume the Sequoia with a 122" wheelbase would get 479?

Pretty disappointing.

Trying to argue against full time 4WD in a land cruiser forum is not something I predicted.

Website is up, but don’t judge me. I know I need to improve it still and add a lot more & better photos. I just need to start somewhere. https://nstspec.com/

Golden spike got me!!

Pulled these nasty guys off to clean and get rebuilt.

Fixed

Glad @MTKID is stepping in to fill a void for 200-series. I've always thought I would eventually do a BL when going more aggressive, but now that I've crossed that bridge, some of my opinions have changed. IMO, BL should be one of the earlier...

I’d be in for a set of the black plastic ones 5x. I’d love some black hardware in hex and would be ALL over a set black center caps. Pretty Please!

Let’s get this party started… I’m starting this thread to discuss the options, share some installation tips and see how to get this out to you guys that have been asking for it as quickly as possible. I installed a body lift on my 80 series...

The rear lower control arms of the 300 are a pound lighter, but the same overall dimensions as the 200 series. I assume the weight loss was from reducing the wall thickness.

The 6th gen for some reason looks very busy to me.

Ran into an issue where the AC would not work in my wife’s 2016 LC. It will turn on but just kick out basic air. In addition to this, the seat heater would come on full blast and not turn off into the dealership. To try and get the seat to not...

I'll make a few sets in aluminum and then maybe make some out of UHMW. I'm thinking a set will be 5 rings or should it be 4?

I'm down for an aluminum set when they are ready for market.

Machined out of black UHMW might be the sweet spot for price, function and weight. Also won't look as bad once scraped up. Machining time might be slightly less than Aluminum depending on who is machining them and how hard they push.

I like the hardware, too 👍

Create metal wheel caps too and the RWs will have a 2nd life.
