TX_TLC is refering to cruiserdan and he's the man for OEM Toyota parts.
Most of the guys here stick with OEM parts and for good reason. Except for things like suspension and in that case we mix the letters up and go for OME springs and shocks from the likes of Christo Slee (you can see his ads up in the top corner): www.sleeoffroad.com
I also see that you've got a late model Lexus, Christo is one of the few that has good experience in modifing the suspension on the 470s (and 100 series) for offroading. Well worth going that route if that's what you're looking for.
By working with Slee and C-Dan you'll be getting the best in advice and service. Hope that helps. No affiliation with these guys..yada, yada, yada.
Check out the 100 series forum pages which is down one from the 80 series (this forum). There's some good posts on modifing the 100/470 series trucks there.
BTW - welcome to the board and I hope the gang doesn't give you too much heartburn over the RR, and if they do, it's all in good fun.

57 Chevy with a V8. Brand new Atlas plycron tyres with the trendy thin white walls. Fresh black paint job paid for by working in a filling station all summer. Who cares about no A/C and black cars when you're in HS even if you do live in East Texas where the humidity never gets below 95%.

Z,
as riley stated before there are some cost effective solutions to parts other than going with aftermarket parts. not sure exactly what you are looking for but as far as crash parts there is nothing out there. for internals and bearings and such there isnt a lot out there that will compete with the goodies that dan will hook you up with.
these trucks are built well, and there are damn few parts I would feel comfortabel running that didnt say teq on em.
