    2nd Gen Sequoia, Load Range E Tire?

    I run the Wildpeak AT3 in 285/60-20 on my Sequoia at 45 psi for travel and towing. E-rated. For snow, I deflate to 40 psi and have not problems. Have a place in K-Falls Oregon where I have run them in the snow plus travel to Montana in the snow last trip. No worries about traction. Profile...

    SOLD SoCal: 1994 FJ80

    Interesting rig. Does the trans still have enough life driving on and off a trailer, into a driveway? Thanks!

    Engine wiring harness

    Unsure what a “floor” harness is but have replaced the engine harness on a 2003. Engine harness is a pain with the engine in the vehicle. Easier completed with engine pulled. Lots of ground and other wiring on the back of the heads, intake and block. Plus the transmission harness is part of the...

    DV8 Bumper Install - 2008 Sequoia

    Which winch are folks using in this bumper? I have looking at it for my ’13 Sequoia Platinum, but was curious about winch space. Parking sensor will be relocated, but doubtful about the radar cruise - I always turn it off when using the cruise.

    OEM timing belt 'kit' ?

    Bought two different kits for two different GX’s over the past three years. First was off of eBay, Aisin kit, 50K miles on this kit to date and not issues. Second kit purchased from Rock Auto (Aisin kit) along with a Denso radiator last October. Approximately 5K miles on this kit with no...

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

    Towed my daughters GX470 from Carson City, NV. To San Pedro, CA. to replace the motor a month ago. Repaired GX returned over Thanksgiving weekend under its own power. Weight was close to max, but I averaged 12 mpg - better than when I tow my travel trailer (which is 2,000 lbs less than this...

    Non-VVTI swap to VVTI swap possible?

    Great question! I have not completed the swap you are proposing; however I just completed motor replacement on a 2003 with a 2004 motor - both non-vvti. There are a lot of non-vvti used motors on the market for sale. I bought mine through an eBay seller, complete from pan to wiring harness with...

    Engine Replacement

    Update: Drove the GX from So Cal back to my daughter outside Carson City, NV today via hwy 395 (beautiful scenery and several steep passes to climb). Now 500 + miles into the replacement and nary a problem. The daughter is ecstatic to have her GX back and I will be bringing home my 2013...

    Engine Replacement

    Appreciate the advice. Dropped the trans with my Harbor Freight transmission jack and rolled it back - left it under the rig and rolled back into place once the replacement engine was installed. Lexus could have made a better plan for the torque converter bolts - what a pain! Engine went back...

    Engine Replacement

    Starter replaced along with timing belt, water pump, thermostat, hoses, radiator,etc. Completed connections tonight and fired up for the first time the “new to me“ motor. Turned on the key, allowed the fuel injection to come up to pressure, fired up on the first try with no lights flashing on...

    Engine Replacement

    Radiator blew (literally a chunk blew out) in my daughters 2003 GX 470, resulting in blown head gaskets and scored cylinder walls, necessitating replacement of the engine. New to me engine on the way (135,000 miles), which will receive new timing belt and water pump prior to install. Oh, and a...

    Blinking ABS Light

    The indicator lights (including ABS) appearing tie to a brake system issue, specifically the ABS motor. When the lights came on (including abs), did a high pitched tone start? The appearance is your ABS motor is beginning to fail. The owners manual has a section which discusses the...

    looking at suspension swap on 07 gx470, have a few questions!!

    Looking to replace the airbags or change over to a coil spring set up on the rear? You can change over to a “stock” height spring on the rear, maintain the current shocks and comfort ride. No height adjustment is moving to springs. Keep an eye in the classifieds section or on the Facebook GX...

    Possible purchase. Now a light build!

    Just an FYI, I have the Ironman Foam Cell Pro suspension on my 03 GX470, stock upper control arms. As of today, the setup has 57,000 miles in use, 80% street (more now as my son in law is driving it) and 20% off road. No problems with the set up and still rides well. Not as plush a ride as my...

    Purchased an 80 Series as a family vehicle but who are we kidding? It won't stay stock for long

    In answer to your 35’s on stock suspension, yes it can be done. I have done it, but without fender flares. Front was great, but the rear was limited in articulation off road. Did not stop me from driving ”fast” on gravel/rutted roads, but the limitation would remind me at times. This was not a...

    O2 Sensor locations ?

    On the 3FE, the exhaust pipe comes from split manifolds (2) off the engine. Each pipe has an O2 sensor right before they enter the catalytic converter (on top of the exhaust pipe). One exhaust pipe comes out of the catalytic converter and exits at the rear of the vehicle after their muffler...
