    Just starting.
    Greetings. Thank you for the addition.

    2000 Tundra, 177,000 miles, Central Arkansas (e.g. nonsalted), 4x4.

    Past experience with 1st gen Tacomas and 100 series cruisers. I love the 2UZFE.

    Well maintained and regularly serviced by our local dealer.

    New OEM front ball joints and steering components.

    Recent OEM timing belt, water pump, and starter.

    I think it rides and drives great. I wish I had discovered Tundra many years ago.

    Eventually, I'll be in the market for shocks.

    I'm into off-roading. The Tundra will be an adventure truck to go with the 100 series on family trips.

    First Enhancement Purchase

    Seat Jackers (driver side)

    Just starting.
    It's in the body shop getting a dent removed from the right rear quarter panel. I'm building a spare CV axle based on an OEM using boots from an 07 model.

    I think I'm taking a more expensive route than going with the SDHQ Off-Road boots.

    I picked up a used Costal Offroad rear bumper and a storage box with sliding drawers for the bed.

    The body shop will trim the rear fenders for the Coastal Offroad bumper to fit.
