2013 Sequoia Limited to TRD FAUX build now with BOOST!

All tucked in just like it's designed to go there.

lol

 

Went to the dealer to get my 2018+ fog grilles saw a new 2020 (paper temp plates have the year on them) it was a Pro so all blacked out trim & badges but otherwise IDENTICLE to my truck (except the grilles which I'm a putting on when I get home)

 

Really with the exception of a very slight hood contouring change and upgraded headlights there has been no change to the sequoia styling since Toyota changed the body style in '08. The lower grille also had some adjustments to the location of the oncoming traffic sensor panel, but who really pays attention to the lower grille.

 

Another benefit of remote start is walking up to this.

 

I went out this morning to replace the gear oil in the Differentials & transfercase.

Opened the differentials, both have clean gear oil!




Transfer case also clean & new!


I'm not going to replace it for 10k miles.

 

I had no idea about this. What exactly is the difference?

 

I did not have the 2020 directly next to mine so missed the hood difference, looked the same to me (as I have the new headlights)

Back of the trucks were seemingly the same. (except it has blacked out badges)

 

are you planning on doing some off roading?

 

Some basic, nothing crazy. Bilstein Front 5100s & Dobinsons are assembled, waiting for the rear DOBINSONS 4X4 1.75" REAR COILS FOR TOYOTA SEQUOIA 2008-2018 5.7L V8 (C59-477) which have been backordered for a while, I paid for mine in early April, they say 6/30 they will ship.

 

My pump died and I fixed the powerwasher with a 3100 psi pump. Working better than new. Only issues are the original which is NLA has the hoses coming out the sides, all the available pumps are front or back. I got one that comes out the front because the axle was in the way out the back, second issue is the bolts are too long so I used nuts to take up the space.



First real detail, used the foam cannon & claybar.

 

Following as I don’t recall a difference either and I’ve had both a 2018 and 2016

 

This is a 2020 PRO:



This is my 2013.

 

Forgot to take pics of the Sequoia after the foam cannon.




This is our carbon offset vehicle.

lol

 

Had this badge left over from the Tundra, took off the stock chrome badge that was there.

 

My radio bezel was warped, Crutchfield replaced it no muss no fuss.

Huge shout out to Crutchfield!

 

Hello E30CAbrio in regard to

Do you happen to have the part number or link to the parts you used by chance?

Thanks

 

The one I have is not OEM.

Got it there, great unit & easy install/great support.

 

Thank you for the info and quick response

 

My pleasure.

 

Went to Tucson & picked up this TRD PRO skidplate.

First roadtrip went great. Averaged 75mph & 18mpg. OEM intake & K&N element running 1 degree over ambient indicates there is no need for a cai. (Ambient in upper left corner)

 

I have this same remote start kit - also installed one in my wife’s Highlander, though it was a different module. Same plug and play install though. Would highly recommend.

 

I had it in my 86, needed a different module for the Sequoia but was able to use the cellular module for the Sequoia. Plus the owner is a vet that employs vets so that's a good reason to support someone offering quality products & service!

 

This just happened.


Painted the tow hooks & installed the skiplate, need different fasteneners for the bumper.

 

Looks great! What did you use to paint the tow hooks? Did you take them off to paint or paint them while installed?

 

Looks great and oil changes won't be such a task anymore.

This is the type of bumper fastener the plate comes with when purchased new. Just make sure you get a big enough diameter.

 

Thanks, just spray paint, I'll post a picture.

They had to come off to install the skid plate (I would have removed them to paint if they didn't need to, don't want any overspray on the truck.

Thanks! I just bought a box of 400 "sh!tty plastic fasteners" that has some similar to that.

 

Worked perfectly!



Here is the paint I used

 

Brakes!

 

Awesome, where’d ya get the SS lines? Are those the part #’s for front and rear. I definitely want to do those whenever I upgrade!
