    Hello group,

    Lifelong Toyota owner. Started with a 87 extended cab 4WD, 22r when I was a teen. In 2005, I bought a 2004 Sequoia Limited 2WD, and currently have 325k miles on it. In 2024, we passed it down to our son, who drove it for a year, while really wanting a truck. So, the opportunity to purchase a black 2008 Tundra Limited TRD 4WD, CrewMax, 5.7, with 175k miles, from my brother came along, so we took it.

    We had the following added:
    7" BDS Lift
    BDS Diff Drop
    BDS UCA
    Drive shaft carrier bearing drop
    18x9 Fuel Rebel 5 Wheels, +1 Offset
    37x12.5 Toyo R/T Pro Tires
    AlphaRex MKII Pro headlights
    Muffler Delete, all stainless 2.5" exhaust from cats back, dumped at the rear corners with 5" tips.
    Fox 2.0 Rear Shocks(forgot to add originally, these ride great...Bilstein 4600 on the front, with strut extensions included with BDS kit)


    Future plans:
    Researching a sound system upgrade.
    Fox 2.5 Resi Front Coilover Replacements(specifically for 7" BDS Lift), these were way backordered when our system was installed, so we opted to wait since it's a drop in replacement. These are sized as full length for 7" lift, so no strut extension needed.

    Thank you for allowing me to join your group. I will do my best to add value, to an already great resource.
