    Yea too bad its a 2.7 and not a 4x4 . But in the end its ok, I still love my Taco. Yes it definitely needs tires there all cracked and old.

    I agree with JKO1998, get some good A/T tires on there and have some fun on some dirt roads.

    Does anyone know if tundra brake upgrade would fit with SCS f5? Or Ray 10? Also I saw what I'm getting from my taxes, lift or armor first? :notsure:

    @Speedytech7 Was it you in search of leaf spring plates ect? I know you ca get the u bolts from napa ect for a un inflaed price of 15.00. Price might have jumped a little though. As far as the plates Skys off road design has just them and i saw toytec is selling them as well. When you relocate your shock tabsI would suggest the one piece box mount vs the 2 individual flat bar tabs.

    I was looking for plates to flip my ubolts, but I'll check out NAPA. These are what I purchased from RuffStuff for shocks...

    And these for the upper mount...

    I always start my builds with sliders, then lift and tires, then front bumper w/winch, then skids, then rear bumper.

    Way to heavy a coil for a prerunner with a 2.7 and no extra weight.

    All SCS wheels are engineered to clear tundra calipers.

    Well...this just happened. Low quality proofs. Build thread updates later this week. (Stick sits far left because it's from a Tundra. Nice for those lazy shifts, barely have to reach from the steering wheel lol)

    I had the same thoughts and had to look it up myself when i saw the ebay ad. 00-03(?) or 04 had the 5vzfe/r150f option. And still not very popular since...well, it competed against the V8 option..

    Yeah not that popular. Small motor in a bug truck vs the nice 2uz.

    Most were single cab work trucks that ended up with the v6 that I've seen.
