All were solid axle. As far as I know, all the non-vvt motors are a340 4 speeds.

If you have the a750 5 speed, you can swap to FJ cruiser transfer cases if you decide the stock one isn't to your liking. The early, 00-02 models have smaller lower ball joints and spindles when compared to the later model ones. The VVTi engine is probably worth it but you may have to deal...

Who does the body mount bushings? Sean

No clue power wise. This is an intercooled eaton tvs 1900 not the m90 like on the trd blower. I'm also setting it up to support ethanol. Yeah you can use 1uz rods but the eagle rods are $725 which isn't cheap, but if you are opening the motor up, is not that much more expensive vs used 1uz...

Its a crazy mod to do, no sane person would do it. I am midway through supercharging my 01 tundra and its been outrageously expensive. On top of the cost the 4.7 motor really isn't built for boost, it's got little bitty connecting rods and likes to spit them out of the block unless your tune...

Bad decisions 24 Wideband stealth mount. Sean

Bad Decisions 23 I had some bussed contacts cut from 0.040 copper so I can avoid splices on the power feeds to the internal fuse box. I have one power from each relay coming to the main buss bars, then jumpers to one side of the fuse, then wires out to the devices. I messed up the spacing on...

Bad-er Decisions 22 redoing work because I can't count pins correctly. I had used the 18 series hd30 connectors because I thought I had enough contacts but my list was incomplete. So for my hubris, I had to cut a big chunk out and poorly weld in a band, and plate, then replace the connectors...

Bad Decisions 21 Bulkhead mount to connect my hd30 connectors for power/sensors. Sean

If it ever gets done lol. Its been too long since I have gotten to drive it. Most of my remaining electrical parts are scheduled to arrive today. I am hoping to clear most of that out in a few weeks. Then I have to do leak checks on everything, swap motor mounts, valve cover gaskets...

Bad decisions 20 Gauge fab and hardware 8gb rpi 4b+ Waveshare 12.3" display 13 channels of optoisolated level shift to pull factory io from the dash and a 4 channel relay to control extra io Running ts dash it will pull info straight from the ms3 and let me tune if I want. Im working on the...

Bad decisions 19 Intercooler heat exchanger plumbing. All 3/4" stainless tube and hps silicone piping. I need to fab the mounts for the tubes but I am pretty happy with how it has tuned out considering the bender I used was cheap and broke in the proceess. I still need to fab the mounts for...

Bad decisions 18 Had to pull the blower back off again, I noticed it wasn't sitting flush on the gaskets and found that no matter what fitting I tried on the passengers side under manifold port, they all fouled on the water tube. So I plugged both ports and drilled two new 1/8npt ports on the...

Bad Decisions 17 Hood latch, intercooler straps, and transmission cooler pre-install I spent yesterday evening making sure the hood would close after some genious threw a giant intercooler heat exchanger in front of the radiator. The hood latch fouled on the top of the intercooler, I had...

Bad decisions 16 Intercooler bracket fab. Still have to make the straps to hold the cooler and trim the grille on the upper drovers side corner but the hard part is done. Plumbing is next. Sean

There is an oem toyota reman part number floating around somewhere, I think it was like $200 or something. I just checked on my two online parts places and they are no longer listed. Sean

Bad decisions 15 I made a washer fluid reservoir/power steering reservoir holder, an intercooler reservoir holder, and intercooler pump bracker. I need to trim the power steering lines a bit and get a real 90 for the intercooler res to pump line. The intercooler res could have been done...

Bad Decisions 14 Vacuum/boost Block, Fuel Pressure Regulator Mount, Throttle fitup. The rear portion of the block is boost referenced for the map sensor, fpr, and boost gauge if needed. The front half is vac referenced for the bypass valve and charcoal evap canister. I changed the...

Bad Decisions 13 Fuel filter and flex fuel sensor install I stole the stock fuel pump bulkhead fitting out of the sending unit and adapted it to my new harness so I could plug into the stock harness for the fuel level sending unit without cutting/splicing. The flex fuel sensor and fuel...

Bad Decisions 12 Blower is back on and the throttle body clears. I fabbed up a throttle cable mount that I am going to redo and pressure tested the coolant system, no leaks. I also started playing with the electrical extensions for the tps and throttle body motor and looked at intake routing...
