Well sold my Land Cruiser and got a Tundra. My fourth Land Cruiser but found I could not do what I needed on our property and fighting the issue and making things work got old. So sold 2002 Z06 and 1986 FJ60 and bought a new Tundra. Miss them both...but at this point I needed a truck with hauling capacity and towing...
Fairly straight rig....Tundra Limited with spray in bed liner, LED lights in bed, LED lights for DRL, Puddle Lights and Foot lights in seating area, wheel locks, tinted windows, paint protection film on hood, door areas and panels behind wheels, etc.
Yesterday I visited my buddy at SPARK Toyota in Myrtle Beach and picked up a TRD CAI, TRD Dual Exhaust, and their 3 inch leveling lift kit made by ToyTec.
Installed CAI and Dual Exhaust in driveway last evening...found that you need to lower spare tire before you can get passenger exhaust in place no matter how many times you try. If I would have done that first would have been less than 2 hours for uninstall OEM and installing TRD version. Since I tried to finesse it for 30 minutes and then jack up rear end and put on jack stands...all to no avail...took me about 3.5 hours to do it. LOL
Not going to be a lot of mods on this rig....but so far I love it. Solidly built, the 5.7 is awesome, very comfortable, and drives nice on and offroad.
I may add a Rigid Light kit in lower bumper but was told TRD is working with someone on a LED kit that fits in the upper faux air intake scoop on front of hood...will be seamless fit and finish. May also put on pocket flares when I get larger tires otherwise this is about it...for now.
Here she is from dealership, no mods.
