    I actually have a question. I did a write-up for the relocation of my cruise control switch, where is the appropriate place to post that?

    I thought URD specifically states Sequoia TB's don't work with the adapter?

    You, my friend, are today's winner. That was a test to see if you guys were paying attention. It is, indeed, a Tundra throttle body that I used.

    You win... uhhh... bragging rights, and the cruise control relocation write-up that I'm working on right now? Don't think about the fact that everyone else on the forum will win the writeup.

    What are your other mods? Do you have a link to your build?

    I literally have nothing in my build thread yet, but if you look in my info for mods, I have everything separated out. Lots of suspension at the moment waiting to be installed.
    My build is on hold, I've had my truck looked at by many shops. Shes leaking coolant internally, probably head gaskets, which I'm hoping Toyota extends the HG TSB soon to 07+. Power steering pump is bad, water pump is going, valve cover leaks, timing chain seal leaks, shes looking at with labor, a $5k job. I'm looking at my options at the moment. I've had the OVTune tuner level self tune kit since november, have a shop lined up for tuning, and I'll tune NA first. Then well go FI soon after(single turbo setup), that is as long as these repairs hold up. Also already have URD 160 thermostat and adapter ready for install as well.

    I feel your pain mang. I had to spend $4500.00 on a new transmission (part alone, did the installation myself - then when it was off I also realized I needed a new clutch for $1000... yeah...) but I am committed to this project.

    Don't let a little $5000.00 bill stop you from realizing your dream.

    Single turbo would be amazing. When you do that are you touching the bottom end at all or just keeping stock?

    When one makes an analogy that alludes to a movie, I think one should always use a Stephen King analogy.

    Hey @Athlaos if you could pm me some info on how you did the steering wheel and the amount of work it took i'd appreciate it. Wanting to do an aftermarket wheel soon and figured i'd ask someone who has it done.

    Hey @phillipthetaco Sorry, I just saw your post. I can describe succinctly how I did it, however it's been a while and I didn't really take pictures. Give me a couple of days to put something together.
