Come on over bro!

You’re buying a truck from them? Then I would tell them I want more for my trade, or I want 10% off MSRP on the new vehicle. Their choice. You’ll find a dealer that wants to make a dead. Tundras are not a rare vehicle.

Thanks man, I’m pumped on it. Like really pumped on it. In the last few years I bought a 15, Chevy Silverado z71/LTZ, brand new Bronco wild trak, 22 gmc sierra at4. Ended up selling them off for one reason or another. I think I finally found “the one.” It’s got full cat back 2 to 1 exhaust...

For my highly valuable opinion, all I need is your steps shipped to me for dirt cheap 🤣

Hey man, hope it’s going for a good reason. It all depends on how much you value your time. Also if you kept your stock parts. Do you have a place to store them until the parts sell? If you spent 30k you’ll be lucky to get 10k back. Thats after tons of headaches, flakes, low ballers, no...

Califab in Carmichael did my diff regearing, transfer case rebuild, and air lockers. Did a great job! Also does all kinds of crazy, high end road builds.

Few more

Hey fellas, Just picked this up a few days ago. My daily driver FJ80 is acting up, so needed another vehicle. Found this one. It’s a 2019 SR5 4x4, access cab. 1 owner, great maintenance. And it’s a turn key, built truck! High end lift, and supporting mods. It also came with a Magnuson blower. I...

I’ve actually reached out and been in contact with them. They are going to help me square it away. I also talked to my local 4x4 shop. He recommends the Napa alternator. Lifetime warranty, and good quality vs other parts stores.

Hey guys, I solved my alternator problem today! No more rush to repair. I can go back to having the LC as a hobby vehicle.

Hey man thanks for the part number. I called my local Toyota dealer today. They said the alternator was NLA. I’ll try them again tomorrow with this number. Thanks again! Edit: Just looked up this part, looks like it has the internal blades, mine is external. Are they compatible? Will that one...

Well I’m waiting on either an alternator, or brushes. The LC is my only vehicle right now. I noticed my battery voltage spiking to 18v. Is there any risk of if I keep driving until I get my parts squared away, other than potentially leaving me stranded with a dead alternator?

Hey man, I never got to doing the job. Life got busy, sold my second vehicle, so the LC is my only vehicle for a little while. I think it’s going to be a winter project for me. Not many walk throughs on the job either. Makes me uneasy when I have to go into a job blind.. definitely want to...

It has been cranking a little slower than normal. Thank you guys. It’s seeming impossible to find a quality replacement alternator. I can buy a cheap one from autozone for like $200, but I’m not thrilled with that route. I’ll look into brushes. That would be sweet. Thank you guys!

Thank you so much! I’ll definitely be checking the alt! Have a great afternoon.
