    Looking to see what parts I can steal from other models. So far I've found:
    -5th Gen 4Runner Front and Rear Brakes
    -Tundra Brake Booster
    -Tundra Master Cylinder
    -Tundra Rack and Pinion
    -Tacoma Black Trim
    -4Runner Mirrors

    I've tried searching and looking through the mod list. Just wondering if I missed anything.

    Are you asking for Tacoma parts that are interchangeable with other vehicles?

    If you are in also curious.

    Rav 4 mirrors
    Fj Cruiser Seats (barley)
    3rd Gen Rear seats, and mechanical front seats. (Can’t confirm ABS or seat occupancy sensor)
    FJ, Tacoma Rims?

    Trying to upgrade using factory parts from other vehicles to keep cost down while getting features I didn't get.
    SOS sells an adapter to use the 5th gen rear disc/parking brake.
    Yes I'm asking what parts people have put in their 2nd gen Tacomas.

    might be possible to do it cheaper by getting a whole 4runner rear end with brakes still attached.

    Yes but then I'm welding all the attachment points back on after cutting everything off. And if I'm doing that I may as well go with a 63" swap or link it. And I have to make sure ratios match. So I may as well swap then if they don't. So that's a whole well what if. Either way I know about it so I was looking for new things I wasn't aware about.

    I guess features isn't exactly just it. But also improved characteristics and performance. Like using 2nd gen tundra parts for steering and braking. Using 5th gen 4runner parts for brakes.

    Only features I didn't get as a TRD Sport are A-Trac, HAC, DAC, and E-Locker. If I had an E-Locker factory or find an E-Locker axle cool. If not I like Air Lockers so I'm cool with that too.
