    Hello All!!

    Picked up a good condition 2005 with 83k miles.
    Previous owner installed a sunroof and added an amp and some speakers. Most sound blown now...but an easy fix.

    So far, new Conti DSW-06's and fluid changes. Pulled the HID conversions that they attempted to run without relays and additional power. And some crappy LEDs stuck all over the place.

    Just ordered the TRD quick shift kit and will assess the suspension.

    Next to do...decide on what to do with the brakes. May do the Tundra upgrade or the Lexus one. More research needed.

    Has a weird knock when turning it off...like a load coming off a mount or engine rattle, not sure yet.

    Check your abs block to see if its properly mounted. Mine was loose and only made sounds when hitting bumps. Took me a good while to figure it out.
