    GX 470 Rear Bumper Recommendations

    https://80percentoffroad.com/products/lexus-gx470-diy-swing-out-kit I will be going with them when I need a rear bumper. I can fit my 285/70/17 in the stock location (deflated) so haven't pulled the trigger yet. Once I rip off my bumper though.... They do great work (did the rear suspension...

    Getting stupid close. Volant CAI w amsoil filter installed and ready to go. Need to wire unichip and put on belt. Then it’s go time! Also wired up my halos and turn signals and cleaned up some messy wiring in the engine bay. Fresh interior, exterior and engine detail as well.... Can’t wait to...

    2003 Tundra/ 89 Skamper 080S inbed popup. questions about transmission fluid flush

    Full flush I don’t buy the lifetime fill argument. Well I do, trans will last the lifetime of the fluid which will get dirty and break down over time not providing proper lubrications. All my rides have shifted better after a full flush, no explosions. If you want to ease into it drain the pan...

    Anyone have a scan gauge hack to monitor trans temps? I get what Smokey is posting, no towing for me.

    BlueRanger's 2004 Tundra AC 4x4 "Do Everything" Truck

    Great points about fuel, completely agree. Got my starter installed today - what an absolute PITA, I was going the Spider-Man over my engine bay to get to the starter bolts. Would have been a lot more difficult without this offset pivoting ratchet from Gear Wrench; lifesaver. New starter...

    BlueRanger's 2004 Tundra AC 4x4 "Do Everything" Truck

    In the middle of thinking about what I will do in the rear (SOA, SUA, Cantelever) FOCUS, I still need to get this supercharger done. Sent my injectors out for flow testing and rebuild; wow, glad I did. Would recommend anyone with a blower (current or upcoming) do so. Here is a quote from James...

    BlueRanger's 2004 Tundra AC 4x4 "Do Everything" Truck

    Bought a reman Denso off rock auto...will keep original as a spare. The supercharger is the newest version to my knowledge as it has 9th and 10th injectors. Running a unichip with the 5 map switch for the ECU, hope to get that wired in in the next few days. Also coming off of stock intake...

    Ebay.....brand new seller found 2 at an estate sale, kept 1 sold one. Still had the original testing tags on it. Unit only, took me 6 weeks to piece everything else together. Huge thanks to James McCann, he has been my guide through this process and knows more about these units than anyone I...

    BlueRanger's 2004 Tundra AC 4x4 "Do Everything" Truck

    If I could do it again I would have done 285/75/17. Would still need/prefer the regear (4.56 vs 4.88) but the weight savings would be significant! I was so obsessed with "35s" I didn't think about it as much as I should have. Can you drive with 35s and 3.91s? Sure, but its an absolute DOG (I...

    BlueRanger's 2004 Tundra AC 4x4 "Do Everything" Truck

    James @ http://sdtruckshop.com/ built them for me. Brought the truck in for a major transformation (gears, tires, lockers, skids, etc) and we noticed the camber was way out after replacing with OEM less than 20K previously. James said this was a big problem on our trucks and offered to try and...

    BlueRanger's 2004 Tundra AC 4x4 "Do Everything" Truck

    Hey all, Long, long time coming, will do my best to document everything up to this point (and keep you updated on the current and future progress). I bought this truck brand new in 2004 with 11 miles on the ODO so we have a lot of history together (16 years!). This happened after a deal to buy...

    2005 Tundra novice build - "The Rez"

    Thread showing. I have the same bumper as you, winch, sliders and a rear bumper as well. Not saying your setup is wrong just weird that we are having different results (or ride preferences). I love driving mine too. 16 years and counting...
