Greetings from Central Texas

Hello all. I'm originally from Nebraska, traveled the two coasts in the Navy, married a Texan along the way and am now in the Austin area. Thought it was about time I joined up as I'm starting an overhaul on the Taco. Some info on the Taco: 2001 SR5 3.4 4x4 Auto. Technically, it's the wife's truck, but since I'm putting my blood, sweat, tears and curse words into it, it's now "our" truck... It has roughly 220xxx miles. There is a a Tuff Country 3" lift on it and 285/75/16 Maxis Big Horns. Pretty standard after that. The truck has been sitting in place for almost three years and I am finally dusting it off and starting the overhaul. I got a great deal on a reman'd 5VZFE and got it installed a couple weeks ago along with a new radiator and added a trans cooler. Next up is reworking the suspension, wheels and tires, regear and then odds and ends. I'll start a build thread up with all of that going on. The other main driver is a 2016 4Runner TPE that we just got. Enough rambling and on to a few pics:

 

Thanks. I'm still going back and forth on what all I need and want to do to it. Going through the "which coilovers and UCAs" phase now... gonna go dig in the suspension forum...

Thanks for the welcome. I should get a build thread started this weekend and get to diving in the forums as I go.
