    Welcome to the build up of my Tundra RCLB w/ Work Truck Package. This is the second Gen 2 Tundra that I have owned (along with a 200 Series Land Cruiser), so it’s a very familiar platform for me. Duties will be typical - plowing, towing, and hauling. Improvements will concentrate on helping this HD 1/2 perform these assigned tasks a bit more effectively and comfortably. As nice of a platform as these trucks are, Toyota made some cuts not only on the original model, but also as subsequent model years were introduced, in order to meet a price point and bump profits… so there is much to do. Over the years, most reading this will have seen plenty of the coming upgrades, but maybe a few new items, too.

    The truck at purchase w/ only 93k miles. It lived in NY and Maryland, so it’s fairly clean. The only real rust/rot is the typical bed floor areas.

    Vinyl floor and hand crank windows, love it!

    The truck was partially base lined, most fluids changed, and the transmission received a PML deep sump pan. A Snowex 1/2 ton RDV Plow was mounted along with a Odyssey 31S Battery. Rock Warrior Wheels and studded Nokian LT3 315/70R17 tires help push snow on the southern Vermont class 4 road and driveway. The truck may receive a larger Snowex HDV for next season.
