    Big day today!!! Got the tree back on the ground. Did the front icon 3.0 coilovers and uca with the delta joints up front and rear coil apron from dobinsons and icon 2.5’s with a piggy back resivoir in the rear. Still need to make the bottom tab for the rear shocks. Also did my differential drop and put the blacked out housing headlights in. Tomorrow I’ll be cruisin after I do a few more things.

    Cut out the grill some and shoved a light bar in the dead space that was already there. And put some ditch lights on the her. I think she should be bright enough now.

    I need to get the rear icons mounted still. But they gave me piggybacks which won’t work so I need them to make them remote resivors then I’m pretty much done with my suspension. Next is going to be compressors and a tank to fill my tires and to build my roof rack and I’ll be done for a little bit.


    Thank you everyone for the support. This build sucks! Hahah

    Gonna be a supercharger in the future? From what you've shown so far a SC install should be fun and easy.

    The only SC out there is the original version made by Magnusen. The TRD, factory SC is not available any more, but Magnusen made it anyways, so it doesn't really matter.

    I've got 120k on my Tundra, If I fell into a deal for a SC'er, I wouldn't be able to get it installed fast enough.

    An extra 125 usable HP's, whats not to love?

    Shit sorry for the late reply. No sir I ordered the rci skid plate for a tundra. It bolted right up. I think I’m actually going to run the rest of the under armor they provide.

    But we did build the sliders. Next up is to build a roof rack. And I still need to do a body mount chop. And get my rear shocks in. Icon had them back so they can make them remote resivoir instead of piggy back.

    I’ve been frustrated trying to decide what to get as an off-road toy and never thought about a sequoia! Yours is badass, it was either an 08-09 landcrusier, 2013 tundra or 09 V8 4Runner, I might add Sequoia to the list.
