You bet @overlandtlc - I'm going to order new leather today from Katzkin thru SAR - if I hear anything different I'll post it up.
And please let us know what happens when you get ahold of them.
So I actually bought a new bottom cushion from Toyota so that'll be good. I suspect there's no material difference to the LX bottom cushion so I'll likely just re-use the passenger side seat bottom cushion.
I'm going to get the Katzkin set for the FZJ and get 'er done...
Hey @overlandtlc I called Katzkin and SAR was told the kits include door panel leather as well as the center console - clearly you didn't get them, did you try to get them later? Does the kit not actually include door/center console leather???
Anyone else have an experience with their kits and...
Thanks for all the responses team @dirtfinder did you put Katzkin (katskin to help with search) seat covers in your LX?
Anyone put Katzkin covers in their LX450? I think that's what I'm going to do, and common sense tells me that the FZJ80 covers are EXACTLY the same as an LX, but wanna see if...
TTT - anyone else have any (relatively) recent experience with other folks that are still making leather?
I don't know if I can stomach > $2k for two rows from the supplier suggested...
Motor was pulled the other day - ran great when yanked - I bought the truck for some parts for my current T-100 - chassis had like 170k on it.
Also, this is an ABS truck if anyone needs axles or whatnot - not sure what I could get off it though as this thing is pretty rusty underneath.
Have...
Whole truck - going to the boneyard soon - motor good, trans/x-fer good but gone, seats and console may be sold - most everything else here - won't really have time for little parts here and there to ship but if you want big stuff let me know.
Feel free to call or text to 630-728-9684 or PM...
Hey there - thanks your insight - this is however brand new. But good point - I'd love to sell it, but I'm also okay with keeping it in the event that my plan (to put it on a Tundra) ends up happening still...
That DOES sound like it answers the rumor...truck stops totally fine on the current brake set up...wonder if FZJ80 rotors would fit???
I just don't give up!
Yes - searched here and elsewhere - anyone know what sorta from rotor upgrades are possible for 4x4 T-100s?
I cannot seem to find a clear thread on any of the forums on whether or not you can swap in 1st gen Tundra parts??
Good info - thanks for the response - always good to hear real-world experience. The T-100 for sure seems under-powered, but then again pretty much all Toyota trucks up until say 1998/99 were under-powered!
Nice to know it's not the worst tow rig - my blown LX 450 does just okay towing my 18'...
I've got one - less that 10k miles on it - but it comes with a 1997 LX450!
The whole rig will be up for sale this year or next - anyway...
TTT for the post...
Man---sorry to say, but I was forced to toss out a perfectly good 1FZ-FE block a year ago...I shoulda been paying more attention!
If you need a 1FZ-FE head tho lemmie know! That I did NOT toss out - came off a perfectly good motor, no HG issues, just did a 'just because' engine rebuild...
Hey all - I've got a brand spankin' new TRD-branded supercharger and install kit for your 5.7 Tundra, priced at $6.5k - part #s are:
PTR029-00140
&
PTR29-34140
This is for a Tundra, 2014 and up (not flex fuel I'm told) - if you've questions "like will it fit ______" call Magnusson and they...
Well - I guess we'll find out - I'll update the thread, but the cylinder head has value for sure, maybe I'll get it cleaned up and new valve stem seals - to me there would be value in being able to pop on a new headgasket in a weekend versus a few weeks (maybe doing a core exchange)???
My LX...
