Having gone 250k, Aug 2016 was the time to replace the original clutch & get the driver's seat rebuilt/stuffed. Front & back Weathertech liners. '05 Tundra front disc brake swap. Full length Rocky Mountain Rack with 40" lightbar, Alternating strobe rear dust lights. I used a warm weekend in March 2022 to finally install my brand new from old stock 2000 4Runner driver's seat. $800 directly from the factory in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
    As long as you don't put a supercharger on it'll fit under the stock hood without modifying the hood. I've seen it done, it's a tight fit though. I'm fairly sure you need the 5VZ-FE transmission & transfer case as well. A long gone shop in Denver called RTI (Rock Toys Inc) used to do them for about $3-$5k.
