New to the Forum 2001 Tundra

I got my truck 2020 from a friend that bought the truck new. He quit driving it 2015 and it sat in the yard until I had it shipped to me. I got the truck with 78K not knowing if it would start or run. I had to kill wasps that had set up shop inside the cab and under the hood. I put a battery in and got it started, but it was running very rough and showing all kinds of codes. I had to replace all of the rubber hoses, sensors to clear the codes. I wanted to drive a while before putting too much work into it. It started to run better and I replaced the belt, including timing belt, water pump, hoses, water pump and all fluids. I drove it for a couple of tanks, trusted it enough to move forward. Then I found 2020 17" Toy 4runner take offs and replaced the tires. I got the truck to pull my 19ft camper. I installed tow hitch, wiring, trailer brake controller and a heavy duty front sway bar. I replaced all the brakes with the bigger brake upgrade and new shocks front and back. Inside got a new Pioneer with rear camera and new speakers front and back. Finally with functional stuff done and repainted the exterior and added a bedcover. I now have 115k and have made several long trips with my camper. So far it's running good and want to learn more about the truck, so I am joining this forum. thanks, les

 

Welcome from LA (Lower Alabama)! It sounds like there may be some things we could learn from you based on your experiences with bringing this classic back to life!
