A few follow up thoughts. I had the larger stock calipers in my 1st gen. When I mentioned brake upgrade I meant this one posted by Sal R. on Sequoia-Forums. It replaces the stock calipers and disks with ones off of a GX470. Note that it requires 17” wheels. Not sure if he has posted on this...

Thanks. They are in parallel but was just checking about amperage drops, controller interference, etc. thanks again.

Greetings. I am looking for advice on a battery tender setup for my dual battery system. Should I isolate the house and start batteries and put separate chargers on both or can I just put the charger on the start battery and let them float in series? I can isolate easily and am using a Redarc...

Greetings. I have recently started modifying our long held family sequoia since the wife was upgraded to a GX. Some thoughts on your plans per your request. In general I would start with covering basic maintenance (as SgtScrounge mentioned), fundamental/performance upgrades (inexpensive)...

I have to admit, this project is fairly far down the list. Might be a mid-winter mod. I was planning on anchoring it down to the center position using a strap run between the back and bench to the anchor point below. I am planning on making it out of Baltic birch plywoood since I am not...

Greetings. Just replaced the gas springs for the hood on my ’02 Sequoia and thought I would share what I found. When open, the top end of the spring is a standard clip that you can pop out with a regular flat bladed screwdriver (small size) but the bottom I could not get to pop off. I would...

Cool. I just got mine back from some paint work. I will peek under the hood the next few days. Wondering if maybe there is room in front of the stock batter location.

Totally agree regarding Sal. I went WAY down the rabbit hole on his Sequoia Forum posts to the point of having an LED to do the Audi cabin light mod (having had an Audi with that feature I totally want it). I wish the Sequoia forum site had more traffic but here we are. I need to post my dual...

Very cool features and nice build methodology. Between you and Sal R lots of ideas roll through my head. Just joined the site after seeing your dash mount. PM’d you my interest in a future order. I installed a second battery in your compressor location so I need to find another spot for the...
