08 2wd reg. Cab

Just got my first tundra for 3k. No mods but a list of problems. So far I’ve replaced the front rotors and brake pads and trying to make time to do the rear and bleed brakes. The rear passenger caliper appears to be locked and the drive line(shaft?) is moving around a bit so I’ll be replacing the u joint as well. Windshield is cracked and one headlight has a broken seal. The exhaust was cut down to about the end of the cab and has some holes in it (probably why it was cut). The previous owner also drove into a ditch damaging the drivers side quarter panel door and some dents and scratches on the cab. Clear coat is pretty much faded. And finally the previous owner said something about the egr needing to be replaced or buying a bypass kit, saying it was a common problem on this truck(?)

Congrats on the new ride. How many miles are on it?

 

Congrats!
Great price if it runs.
Sounds like lots of opportunity for improvement too!

 

Yeah it’s sounds and runs pretty good! Yeah I’m excited to fix it up. Do you know of any other reg. Cab tundras (need some ideas and inspiration) They seem to be pretty rare.

 

Thanks man! It’s got 120k miles

 

Well I have 2 of them!
Does that count?
