Thanks for sharing, it's tempting to just get the oil filter access plate. Tired of messing around with the factory plate jigsaw puzzle. Nice work on the rig, most interested to watch how the drivetrain and suspension holds up based on the higher miles. How many miles a year do you plan to use...

When I sold the truck the sound went away. :)

Great truck build

Installed (well, paid someone to install) front and rear TRD swaybars, all new end links, and Bilstein 5100’s Rides nice but to be honest even the leaking shocks rose pretty well even at 202k miles. But definitely flatter when cornering due to the sway bars. Nice to freshen up a 12 year old...

I recently installed Morimoto's, cleaned the MAF sensor and throttle body, and have TRD front and rear sway bars as well as Bilstein 5100's to install (waiting for 5100's to arrive). Rolled over 200K on odometer last month, sprucing it up a bit.

I just ordered TRD sway bars front and rear, with new end links as well. Heard the rear sway requires dropping the driveshaft, something I haven't done before but 4 bolts how hard can it be (famous last words)? Other than the driveshaft, it only seems difficult due to freezing/breaking bolts...

I have that battery in my Sequoia, previously had it in a 100 series Land Cruiser. VERY strong batteries. Great choice.

My insurance company, USAA, only quoted aftermarket. Will not pay for OEM.

About $1700 for both sides, but good to hear.

My catalytic converters were stolen while parked for 40 hours at a barbed wire enclosed parking lot at the Austin airport. Truck sounds disgusting. I have a $1K insurance deductible and I believe the wait for Catalytic converters from Toyota is lengthy (months?). Plus, getting OEM back on means...

Build a plywood box around the truck and fill it with rice. :) Any luck since this post? I always find myself fascinated with getting a car going after submerging.

Do you happen to remember your wheel offset? Great stance.

Found a potential family replacement vehicle - if I can get $18K for the Land Cruiser, I'll take it
