    3rd gen sequoia articulation

    Have you seen this comparison of the Tundra gens? It will parallel somewhat to the Sequoia, although obviously the rear suspension was fundamentally different on the 2nd gen Sequoia

    What did you do with your Tundra or Sequoia this weekend?

    I'm glad you thought it was OEM, as I was going for stealth look, but it's actually a Yakima Lock N load on custom brackets, I put some details here. It works really well with the T slot system, is a couple inches lower than the OEM rack, allowed me to easily mount the lightbar on the front, and...

    CBI Baja Bumper on '23 Sequoia

    That's weird. I'm assuming any bulge below the headlight could be modified given how much fitment cutting is required anyway. I think the only downside of that baja bumper is it looks like the bar blocks the TRD Lightbar position. But if you are adding aux lights on the bar, that shouldn't...

    2nd or 3rd gen Tundra…?

    I'm not sure about 2nd gen, but for 3rd gen, TRD Pro and TRD Off-road packages both include rear lockers. 2nd gen definitely had the torsen center diff which was lockable, but while useful, obviously different from a rear locker.

    What did you do with your Tundra or Sequoia this weekend?

    Wow! I always wonder what prior owners are doing in these situations. "slight oil leak" = they have a puddle of oil flowing down their driveway and buy quarts by the case? Good catch on the brake caliper....

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Westcott 3/1 Lift is on. CBI Bumper is on. Winch is on. Just need to get a front end alignment and throw my skids back on. Comments / notes for others: After <10k miles the top nut on my driver side front shock was fairly rusted. Took a lot of PB blaster and swearing to get it off. The 3/1...

    2nd or 3rd gen Tundra…?

    To add a counterpoint, the V35A-FTS twin turbo engine started in a low volume Lexus Sedan (LS I think?) in ~2018, but has since been included by Toyota in all large flagship vehicles, including the 300 series LC, the LX 600, GX550, and Sequoias. If Toyota chose to put it in their landcruisers...

    La Puerca Plata - 2004 Toyota Sequoia Limited

    Oh man, you are giving me flashbacks of renovating a vintage Airstream while it was parked in a storage yard. Only have 3 hours after work? Well, better be ready to spend 30 minutes pulling all the tools out and setting up and 30 minutes putting it all way at the end (at least). The worst was...

    La Puerca Plata - 2004 Toyota Sequoia Limited

    This whole build is amazing. Your design, fab and welding on the sliders and rack is top notch. I don't know how you find the time to do so much, but it is inspiring. I'll certainly be following for updates.

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Definitely a good spot for it. If you remove the jack bracket there is a ton of space. With a little work, you could even fab a slightly different jack bracket to tuck it to the side and fit the compressor next to it.

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Externally. I watched a video where they routed it along the sill channels by the doors and maybe my 1/0 sheathing was thicker than theirs, but no way was that fitting, and also wasn't looking forward to drilling that size of firewall hole. Instead it travels down, along the top of the frame...

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Thought I'd share the air compressor install I finished on Friday. Viair 400H mounted on the side of the engine bay to some L channel brackets. Brackets mounted to existing bolt holes supporting hood apron on top and one rivet nut on a fender support hole on bottom. Mounting screws go through...

    What did you do with your Tundra or Sequoia this weekend?

    Shakedown camping trip to test my drawers and setup before any long excursions. Also an excuse to get away for a weekend. Also first car I've ever had with an opening sunroof, so feeding the giraffes at the animal preserve was pretty wild.

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    It should be getting delivered today and I'm anxious to do it, but we are doing a quick weekend camping trip. So, maybe Sunday night late :D. Unfortunately, I am too cheap to sell the OEM Wildpeaks and will wait to upgrade until I use these up, so I'll be running the 3/1 lift on 33s for a while.

    Gen3 17" Wheel Fitment- Anyone tried?

    Wow. It looks like the tree was made for it. Also a super useful config if it is actually going to hit some trails. If I didn't have to take a bunch of highway miles to hit my preferred camping spots, I would definitely be going this route.

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Total weight came in at ~47 lbs including the L track, HD locking drawer slides, and installation hardware. Mostly 1/2" blondewood ply, with 3/4" for the faces and the back support structure, glued and pocket screwed. If I was to go larger I would have made an 80/20 frame with 3mm baltic birch...

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Congrats! Definitely try experimenting with it for a few weeks or even months first. The shelf actually grew on me, and I realized there wasn't anything really wrong with the high load platform. In some ways, it is nice because I am 6'3" and it is a more natural working height. My bigger issue...

    Offroading, towing, and family hauling with a 3G Tree

    Storage solution is mostly done. I have the 3rd row 4" from the rear (~2" from the front), 1/4" to 1/2" of clearance to door when closed, top surface is even with the folded seat surface, and bottom is resting on the seat base/HV battery cover. With minimal gaps and a section at the back for a...
