What was in the TRD package?

I am going to look at a 2001 Toyota Tundra tomorrow, it is an SR5 with the TRD package. I do not know what was part of the TRD package did it have a electric locker?

 

Welcome from NY.
Good luck.

 

Get the vin, go here and register it and you can see everything it came with. Tundra's have never had an e-locker...the only Toyota's ever sold stateside with them are Tacoma's, 4Runners and Land/FJ Cruisers (Including, some of the early Lexus LC clones).

Nothing really worth mentioning honestly.

 

Fog lamps and the overfenders/mud flaps blew my skirt up. The other stuff I agree with you. Well worth the extra $955 at the time. Couldn’t imagine not having Fog Lamps.

 

Oh yeah, fog lights are definitely a most have for me.

 

No E locker but you got the limited slip

 

Not necessarily true. I have a TRD and it’s an open diff... limited slip was another option.

 

Common misconception. Limited slip was a standalone option. Tundras never got the E locker that Tacomas had.

PHM tha stickers were the most important part.

 

On his build sheet it looks like he has the limited slip

 

Correct, but not part of the TRD package

 

Stole it for $275!

 

I dont think that's trd package only stuff.

 

That's what got me scratching my head. I don't know a whole lot about the details but, my truck has overfenders/mud flaps, fog lamps and a limited slip rear end and it's not a TRD. It's got me thinking, what would the TRD get you that you otherwise couldn't get?

 

I'm not 100%, but I think the trd package is just shocks and springs. I have the flaps, flares, and fogs as well. No lsd on mine though.

 

I think they came.with better shocks than the sr5 and limiteds as well. Possibly bilsteins. I know the first gen taco trds had bilsteins.and.progressive coils

 

It may only be different springs on the front. I now remember reading some members having different color coded marks on their front springs. I think mine are color coded with blue and yellow on one side and blue and green on the other. Non-turd springs are just blue? blue and another color?

 

2001 tundra for 29k am I reading this thread correct damn that's way to much money better off buying a 2020 for a few k more

 

It would have been really tough to find a 2020 Tundra in 2001 though....

 

Yep. Good response!

Boxer: Keep in mind that even if we did have time machines back in 2002, I’d still have bought it in 2020 with 20/20 vision. Make sense?

The 2002 has never broken down and served nicely. Her restoration is ongoing, but a nice therapy. Might have 20 more years left on her? Loving the lack of truck payments and especially the $2000+ personal property tax every year that feeds the local politicians.

 

Oh i thought that a sticker price from the dealer that is selling a used 2001 tundra right now sorry my mistake

 

If it was.that.much, it would have had been garage kept with less than 60k miles.

 

I think what we're all missing here is the all important TRD sticker that you get. That alone is worth 50+ HP, 3 more inches of up travel and 5 more inches of down travel. It's TOTALLY worth it!

 

The water is getting muddy. What comes on a TRD and what can you only get on a TRD (not on SR5) are different questions.

TRD exclusives:
Sticker & emblems
coils (heavier spring rate but all were progressive)

TRD included but also could be had on SR5:
Forged alloy wheels
265/70/16 tires
Bilstein yellow/blue HD shocks
Fender flares

LSD was not included as part of the TRD package. Neither was the tow package. Totally separate upgrades.

 

Just noticed the full tank of gas
Love how they included that.
