Just picked up a 2001 DC 4x4 TRD Limited. I'm new here!

Picked it up about a month ago with 113K miles on it. First owner had it for 17K. A lady bought it as a certified pre-owned and kept it until 68K, then she sold it to her son. I bought it from the son.

Code P1135 when I bought it so I changed the sensor to pass emissions. Changed the water pump, timing belt, idler pulleys, plugs, belts, hoses, etc. Running like a champ!





First shot with the top off



I'm going to scuff and repaint the wheels (as soon as it warms up outside!) since they're kind of chewed up. I'm loving it so far. I've had Toyotas for years, here's a bit of my history....

1993 ex-cab V-6, 5 speed. 4 inch lift on 33's.



1997 Tacoma LX 2.7, 5 speed. 3 inch spacer, 2 inch body on 33's.



Then I moved on to a 6 inch Trailmaster and 35's.



2000 4Runner Sport.



1985 4Runner that went from this:



To this:





2013 4Runner Trail



I don't plan on doing a lot to the new ride. I put in a double DIN Pioneer this weekend. Front tint, new speakers and painting the new wheels will follow. Possibly a new frame in the future as it's pretty rough and I'm covered until September of 2016. (Yes, I checked prior to buying it! It was originally purchased 9/01)

Lots of good info, I'll post more updates.

 

great looking trucks,, and I so love that black one with the swampers... however you must have stolen it,, as I seen the po po pulling in as u took the pic... shame on u lol....

 

LOL! That's the "work car".

 

Not a Bad apple in the Bunch! All of them are Beautiful!!!! I hope...

"I don't plan on doing a lot to the new ride."

Does not last.. I want to see what you will create!!!!!! Where are those other trucks?? They must have some Happy owners!!!

Welcome!!!!!

 

Funny you ask, because I never really thought about it before.

I sold the green 93 to my father in 2004. He kept it a few years and sold it to get his 2004 Rubicon.

I sold the 1997 Tacoma to an old high school friend in 2009. He still owns (and LOVES) the truck.

I sold the 2000 4Runner to a really good friend in early 2013 when we bought the new 4Runner. It's his daily driver and he loves it.

The 1985 is the only one that strayed. It was purchased by a young man in Louisiana who kept it less than a year. It now lives in Texas and has a brand new 22RE in it.

And you're right, let's see if I can leave the 2001 alone. Heck, I just put a set of Level 8 MK6 on the 2013 Trail the other day. I can't leave anything alone, but I think I'm in good company!

 

I got the same 01 limited, minus the topper,sweet!

 

I think my wife has the same fear that the mod bug is going to bite again!

Thanks for the welcome guys.

 

Just did this, not extreme......

I was actually checking your thread out earlier today. That looks great! But please, don't put ideas in my head! LOL!

 

A few new pics after I washed it today



With his brother





And the family

 

Good luck keeping that stock. Haha awesome trucks man!

 

I want to see you the mod your work car!

As for the truck, that is a nice, clean, blank canvas for you.

Let the artistry begin....

 

There are definitely some unique touches on the work car, but we'll leave that alone!

Yeah, I've already had some ideas. Time will tell, but I'll keep you updated.

 

Welcome to TW.

 

Thanks! I'm afraid this place is going to cost me a lot of money!

 

Oh don't worry about that, it will!

I thought I was happy with my truck when it had 5100's all around, All-Pro bumpers, sliders, and skids. Now I am long travel and have spent more than I care to admit.

 

What did you do with the camper shell!?

 

I'm storing it for occasional use. I wouldn't have bought one, but it was a nice bonus that it came with one. It's an ARE and it's in pretty good shape.

 

Great looking truck. Welcome to the site and stay safe out there on patrol.
