The 2.7L Single Cab Thread

Lower it or upgrade drive shaft... I am going to eventually do the latter.

 

looking to buy an a trailer hitch, which one do you guys recommend?

 

If money isn't an issue or your willing to wait for one to pop up, the factory hitch is great. Built like a tank and hides quite well under the bumper

 

I bought this one a few months back. Does its job just fine.

Haven't moved up to 285s. Still have quite a bit of tread left on the 265s so it won't be happening for a while either.

 

Here is my 2000.

 

Damn thats high

 

Figured I'd be getting that response lol.yeah it's high as hell.the guy I bought it off of never used the truck so the springs are still stiff.I plan on removing the 5" springs and installing 3"springs soon as I can afford it.

 

Here's my 1998

 

I'm runnin a cai, header, and a throttle body spacer. I can tell a little difference, but not drastic. IMO I think that cai is better than factory regardless, but it's personal preference. I'd recommend doing it.

 

Back when I was lowered , I ran about 20 times at the drag strip with a K&N CAI and 20 times with a stock intake. 1/4mile times were faster with the stock intake by like .5 second consistently for what its worth.

 

I have a k&n intake...nothing noticeable. I like the sound tho.

 

The cold air intakes do give the truck a nice deeper growl. Its worth it to some. The power difference isn't really noticeable to the butt dyno.

And no. The airbags won't work just plug and play. You're gonna have to do what that Ryan guy did (there's a write up on here somewhere ) and do some wiring work to get the airbags to work. Or just run without air bags.

 

I'm unfamiliar with seats in access cabs so idk about that. I know (at least I think lol!) That the access cabs come prewired for fogs so you should have the little plug behind one of the blanks on the dash. To the left of the steering wheel.

 

I'm 4wd so I only had one option for drop kits. Which was the Tundra Racing kit.

 

I tried the K&N...heatsoak. I tried the Volant...didn't like the unsupported tube that didn't provide mounting for the things on oem like K&N tube did and oem of course - dunno, some vacum deal. aFe were pricier and didn't look much different & no one was selling one used. So I used the supported intake tube that had mountings for everything like oem did, used the Volant filter box that breathes from fender like oem, & ordered up an aFe dry flow filter to use on it and made a clear lid for the aFe filter box. I ended up with a KVA intake...............




I tried the snorkel for the aFe box, OK, scoop or whatever. It did not help anything except faster dust and bug buildup in the filter box. And the foam donut to fill in between the tube and opening on box has been installed inside the box around the tube and blocks out hot engine bay air much better if not completely now. Other than that it has been fine. Looks better and I have a washable non-oiled filter and maybe more noise. Dunno about any more hp or mpg...if so it is so little I can't tell. But I like it and it is staying. Certainly hasn't hurt anything.
