Ohlins is debuting a larger damper that I expect will excite many. Applications ATM are for Tacoma and Bronco, but they do show off larger universal units which could be custom built… and enough interest will generate more applications.
Magnuson has released an Eaton 2650 TVS for the Tundra. It should fit the 200, but tuning will be on us. There seem to be many folks offering tuning services these days, so a really big power build is a possible reality.

I’m working on a front CV axle project for another vehicle that is utilizing UZJ100 front axle units. The inner 100 boot, as I’m sure many of you are familiar with, is a soft pliable rubber... my preference is the harder thermoplastic boots (years of ATV boots vs sticks). Is there a go to that...
Toyota added the option of a Torsen rear diff to some late model 150 Series in non- North American markets. Part number for the differential is 41301-60200, which can be purchased in the low to mid $1k range. The complete diff chunk is also available with it, but only with 3.73 and 3.90 ratios...
I hate to do this, but have too much to do, so some things have to go. This will be a great rig for many more miles, but it will require someone that can give it the attention it needs. If no one takes it here, well, who knows..
The good.

Awesome new product. Maybe we can get them to produce a version for the gasoline 200?

Here's a neat little tidbit, the F Sport comes with frame/chassis dampers. These are patented by Yamaha, and have been seeing increased use in many applications. Some may be familiar with them from the snowmobile market from almost a decade back.
The snowmobile video shows it off the best. The...
Is there any interest in the direct injection system on the LX 600? Well, pull up a chair. While looking for an improved higher capacity fuel pump to feed more fuel to forced induction 3rd Gen Tacomas, the LX 600 pump popped up on the radar.
Some back ground is needed here... Toyota runs...
No idea on the condition, consider it a core. What you see is what I have. I'll sell it whole or part it. See something? Make an offer. $400 complete OBO.
The GRJ300 has 4.30 diff chunks, w/ lockers or sans... who is going to be first?
Unknowns....
Will the LX600 accept the alternative ratio w/o issues. Some late model Tacoma trucks limit top speed when gears are swapped in. Toyota is getting tighter and tighter with operational parameters.
The...
This popped up on eBay, located in Tennessee, $4500 shipped, include transmission. This is a 4.0l 16V N04CT (modern W04CT) with what should be an A860e 6 speed automatic. Best guess... This also should be 24V and 177hp/354tq. 3200 RPM redline. The transmission has a 3.3 1st gear and a nice .58...
The 2022 Forged BBS Tundra Wheels are now available for ordering. The part # is PT960-34220-2F and they retail for $830.xx per wheel. The deeper discounting Toyota dealers will be able to sell them in the upper $500 range. I have single wheel inbound and should have full specs and pictures of it...
The new 2022 Toyota Hilux T1+ Class truck has replaced the 5.0L V8 with the 3.5 TT from the Land Cruiser/LX 600.
"Thanks to the supremely capable production version of the Land Cruiser 300 V6 twin turbo engine, the team was able to work with the engine in stock form. The standard Toyota turbos...
It appears Toyota/TRD will be offering an accessory +2" long arm kit for the Tundra. This could lead to a decent source of take off Tundra arms and even regular TRD Pro shocks. Will they adapt to the 300/LX600 in the same manner as they did with the 200? Who will be first? Lol!
The following covers 2008 - 2010 model years, it will likely cover later models too... but there are some part number changes for later model years that I have yet to explore.
I recently received Toyota's superseded tiny starter. Upon pulling it from the box and comparing it to larger and...
This page has info on the V35A-FTS engine. It also shows the differences between the Lexus LS500 and Land Cruiser (Tundra?) versions.

A 200 Series based coil suspension! How close will it be to our 200 Series? Tough to say... but that 10.5" rear axle may now be a bit closer and easier to bring to the table.
