    Cia, headers, true dual stainless exhaust, gutted cats, (no engine light on) full audio system, bilstein 5100s w/eibach springs, rear shock relocation with load levels for a f150. Cut to clear 37s but running 34s and 35s until I get rid of the tire eating spool. 04 trans with shift improver kit, camery power buckets, heavy bumpers, projector headlights, custom switch panel in roof, modified seat bottoms in the back, 4.56 gears and a bunch more
    I had my 2000 tundra for 7 years now. The only major problem I've had was the trans, so I updated it to the 04 trans and added a shift improver kit and a bigger cooler with a fan. I use it to tow and for firewood. I made true dual exhaust with shorty headers, re did the rear shocks with load level shocks from an f150, 5100s in the front with eibach springs, spc uniball control arms, did the cab chop, both bumpers are 3/16 plate, power seats from a camery, console from a limited, switch panel in the roof, and shaved the body molding holes. Regeared 4.56 with a spool. Glad to be apart of this finally. Also has 246k and doesn't burn or leak any fluids. Definitely one of the best trucks I've ever owned

    Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! Sweet classic! Sounds like you'll be able to keep this one until you die, whenever that is.

    Thanks.. I'm in LA also. As in Latrobe, Pa. Lol. This is definitely one of the best Trucks I've owned yet. I am planning on selling it though. I had my fun with it and I really want a 4 door to build next. I know I'll never get what I have into it, but when I lost my dogs I just get depressed driving it now. It's just not the same without them here. This was their truck. It's someone else's turn to enjoy my work

    I totally understand about the dogs. My back seat is owned by my two lab mixes. Someone is going to get the deal of their lifetime when you sell that truck!
