2013 Sequoia Limited to TRD FAUX build now with BOOST!

Cool, thanks!

 

Powerstack batteries came, they are very light.

 

Charged very fast, crazy light!

 

New tow hooks came, they fit, one is in, I'll do the other after work.

 

I did it.

 

DirtyDeeds exhaust might be here tomorrow.

 

Mine will be here Thursday!

 

No shock, no exhaust today.

 

Dear FedEx, when you say a package will be delivered Sunday and then Monday, it's not early.

 

This shit again? How is Monday early for Monday especially when it was originally Sunday???

 

Hey! FedEx does actually deliver (eventually)

woot!

 

Awesome! I forgot he paints them. So you have a 2nd resonator welded up front…..wonder if that is what they do with all of them?

 

Did you get the Helmholtz? This is that version.

 

Yes I did.
I thought that welded on Helmholtz piece was the old way.

 

Dunno.

lol

 

Went to install the exhaust, all the flanges & bolts are pretty rusty, got 3 of 4 bolts off, one rounded from the mighty mini gun that had no trouble with the other 3, after closer observation the damn thing is fused in rust. I wd40'd it, ordered all of the bolts (plus 2 extras) same damn bolt is called for in 100 places for numerous Toyotas and the dealer doesn't have them in stock. DAMMIT!

 

That sucks! Do you know what size they are, length/diameter?
Im gonna hit up Napa and get stainless steel bolts, lock washers and nuts to replace them all. How was the clamp that connects the tailpiece……..that’s not cheap, so hopefully it can be restored and reused……maybe need to replace the bolt/nut on it……..pretty sure it has a bolt/nut.

 

No idea on the size, that's why I went dealer. The rear clamp was fine, I left it for last (so didn't touch it) as I had to get a wrench because the length of it's bolt is huge!

 

Just peaked under my truck……they are about 1 1/2” x 3/8”. Mine look like they are from the Titanic!

$1.99 at Tractor Supply, 1 1/2” x 3/8” Grade 8

 

What if they won't go through the captured nuts on the oem flange?

My bolts are in & the dealer is near a hole in the wall great burger place so 2 stones 1 bird!

 

I’ll cut those off with a cutoff wheel and drill them out.

 

OEM bolts, 7 bux (and a trip downtown)

 

Got the asshole bolt out. It is a 14mm, it refused to cooperate so I hammered a 13mm wrench on & got it loose with a breakerbar and then they were in love!




At the back, there's a 12mm nut that looked easy peasy. NOT! I think I'll just cut the fucker off.

 

Damn! Good job! Yeah I thought that back clamp had a nut/bolt….looks like a shipwreck too.

 

It's OUT!

 

It's in, didn't do the second Helmholtz, going to see how I like it.

 

Hell yeah, good idea…….I didn’t even think about not doing the 2nd HemHoltz!

 

Drove from Phoenix to Santa Monica, no drone sounds great!

 

Awesome, and that was without the 2nd HemHoltz? Very cool!
Got mine today!

 

Yup & congratulations!
