About my Tundra

2000 Toyota Tundra access cab 4x2 SR5 V-8. Bought at Berlin City Toyota, Gorham Nh in sept of 99. After hauling a load of firewood I knew the stock suspension was a beat. Started with Firestone Ride-Rite airbags in the back. Last year I saw 1 inch progressive springs from H&R in performance products with 10% off if you got 4 Bilstein shock absorbers.. Did that, now I need an extra leaf spring in the back to keep up with the front springs.. They`re serious! Found these purple "tophat lights" from Barjan in a chrome shop, knew right then I had a place for them right under the hood, what a fit! Loud talkin tall walkin 40 Channel Cobra 29 ltd se CB radio..
I wish that friggin` stock exhaust would pick up the pace just maybe a little bit so I could get a Flowmaster or something on there.. That Toyota reliability you are always hearing about can be a hinderance in one way or the other..
I do haul more than just wood.. Topsoil (55-40 lb bags last time around) shingles, garbage, my 97 Ski-Doo MXZ 670, 02 Honda Foreman 450, QP, coal, ice fishing gear, rough cut lumber, bluestone, beer, bimbos, the kitchen sink, three of them now.. Load after 2,000 pound load.. Still tickin. 206,000 miles strong. More winter driving miles with this 4x2 than most 4x4`s will see..
Future mods: Add-a-leaf, tint strip on top of windsheild, some sort of exhaust when the stock one decides to go, more miles..
